THE HAWAIIAN STONE OR METAL ADZE-- CULTURE, MAKING, USING by B. Ka'imiloa Chrisman, M.D.
B. Ka'imiloa Chrisman, M.D. explains the intricacies of the Hawaiian adze: the culture factors, how it's made and how it's used. Viewers will see how the Hawaiians made adze tools from volcanic basalt, and how one can make a modern adze blade from metal.The proper handle and cordage lashing is also reviewed in depth. Dr. Chrisman points out why the adze offers the best form of control for the craftsman while making wood objects. [Apology to viewers: sound technicalities caused sound to be softer in the first 3 minutes, and then at a higher volume for the rest of the video. You may need to adjust your sound level.]
