A Finn I worked with years ago heard that I like using traditional hand tools, so asked if I ever had an axe shave. Be rude not to I suppose. Irishman living in Lapland since 2007, I love it here, best country I have ever lived in! This was a part of a video I took of it.

I bet your buddy is thinking “he actually did it, the madman!” right now. Was the result good or did you need to do a proper shave afterward?
Cool and disgusting 😁
“Irishman living in Lapland” in the title and the story kinda reminded me of all the “an Irishman walks into a bar…”-jokes.
Next challenge, cutting your hair with [a leuku](https://www.tervasoutdoor.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/LeukuKA%CC%88SI.jpg)!
next stage: use sand paper instead of toilet paper.
You probably spent more time honing that axe blade than for the actual shave.

After a good battle I generally like using the blood of my enemies instead of shaving cream, but each to their own.
My woodworking teacher told me that you know a blade is sharp enough when you can shave with it.
I hope noone bumped into you while shaving below the chin
As we say here, “Kunnon hyvä!”.
Guess we are “soul mates” with the irish. I have worked around the world and my best foreign buddies have always been you leprechauns 😊 ☘️
“do you wanna know how i got these scars?”
From a potato land to a frozen potato land.
This is how my dad used to show off after sharpening his tools. I learned very young that although he wasn’t an angry man, using his tools without permission, not putting them back to their proper places, or – worst of all – just negligently leaving them somewhere to rust – was not a good idea.
Really liked his tools to be “shipshape”.
