Oliver's combination tool. (running on a slant from top left to lower right) Heidi laid the tools out on the cloth, and Rein took the photo in Ambler 1981. Ole says, it's made out of scrap steel, and has multiple purposes: ordinary chisel, side-cutting chisel, machete, froe and drawknife. Oliver gave an fascinating explanation of how he made it out of an old chain saw bar, and explanations of how he used it for various tasks. This tool is a beautiful demonstration of his handiwork, ingenuity, lifestyle, and more. Heidi says: I wanted a picture of all of Olivers selfmade tools so we put them on a peace of cloth on the snow outside the entance of Olivers cabin. We took a few pictures where we changed the tools around. I have the tool to tan hides with here in Norway. I also have two ulus. One Oliver thought me to make when we where in Ambler and one he thought me to make in Norway. From Heidi's email of 12-7-12
From Heidi in email of 8-9-13 "Oliver made four of these saws that are made for two people to use at the time. He is wearing the first sweather I knitted for him that he, clever as he was, turned into a nice jacket"
