Made my first axe handle

I made my first axe handle a couple days ago! I work for a wood work store and have amazing perks to the job! We get what we refer to as 5% training. So 5% of our work time we can use to learn, play with and make things with the tools and machines in the store to better understand how to use them and in turn become better at selling them because we've had hands on experience. The way my manager works it is amazing! We get one day a month on rota to use that day to do something/anything as long as it includes using a product to better understand it. It doesn't necessarily have to be directly linked to the products but to better understand tools weather it be going on training, listening to a podcast, reading a book etc. And on Monday I challenged myself to better understand some hand tools and made an axe handle using only hand tools (after initially cutting down a bit of timber to size with a bandsaw). Using only Japanese knives, a chisel, and a Shinto double sided rasp and sanding paper. I them finished with a proxxon blow torch to lightly burn the grain for effect. I even got the axe head so sharp that just by placing it in my car (I stupidly didn't cover the head) it very easily sliced the seat of my chair! Only a bit an inch but still that needs sorting now.
