    How to make the most realistic harmless hatchet. (DIY Film Props)

    July 24, 2024 /

    This video shows how I made a realistic but relatively safe prop hatchet, for film or theatrical use. A goal with this video was to use only materials I had left in the shop, so there are alternative materials (potentially better) that you can use.
