A customer from back East – New York, I think – emailed us a while back asking if we would make him a custom Cambodian style farmer’s knife or brush ax, based on a video he had seen on YouTube. He sent the link. Seth watched the video and was very impressed with the blacksmith and his helper using a basic outdoor shop to form what was essentially a curved brush axe on a long handle. Our shop has a wider variety of tools and home-made fixtures, but it isn’t much bigger or different in its fundamental from the outdoor workshop of the blacksmith, presumably in Cambodia, making this tool in the video.
