VIDEO: Inventor applies simple physics to improve axe that splits wood in record-time; Jeff Bezos is impressed appeared on www.timesnownews.com by TN Viral Desk.
Before the modern axe, the stone-age hand axe without a handle was used for 1.5 million years. The ones with the handle date only from 6,000 BC.

According to historians and archaeologists, the first known man to use the axe was the Homo ergastar.
That’s all we need to know about the history of the axe.
The axe is a great example of a simple machine that doesn’t need any modifications or changes to become better and more efficient. That’s what most of us think.
But what if there was a way to improve the axe to make it chop and split wood faster, safer and in a more efficient way?
Posting a clip shared by user ‘Massimo’, Bezos wrote, “Invention. You can still improve even an axe! Damn.”

Heikki applied simple physics to create the Vipukirves Leveraxe that chops faster and makes overall work safer for a user.
The new tool looks nothing like a traditional axe that mounts a metal wedge on a handle.
The Leveraxe, on the other hand, acts more like a lever. When in use, the centre of gravity is shifted from the centre line by placing the wedge offset to the handle.
The Leveraxe penetrates the wood and the remainder of the kinetic energy provides rotation around the centre of gravity to turn the axe into a lever, according to Interesting Engineering.
The goal of the design is to use less force to chop the same about of wood.
