Alec Steele Blacksmith 2022

I'm not sure if Alec was just ignoring Jamie or if the whispers were successful, but the "that's what she said" being snuck in cracked me up.

[Billdijk]

My relationship with this channel is not watching for weeks and then getting incredibly invested in a project or two. Every time a new episode I'm interested in comes out I get way too excited. Keep it up Alec and Jamie

[aaronpreston]

I really want to see Alec make a Stanley No.5 Jack Plane. It would be different because you would make a fabricated body instead of a cast body. It would definitely be a challenge.

[Dan_Kornfeld]

Project suggestion: I'd like so see a pair of matching modern climbing ice axes (also referred to as "ice tools"). The knife looks absolutely brilliant! Keep doing what you do‼👍

Wilderness/ bushcraft /survival kit tomahawk, big knife, fire steel, make char, find flint, if crazy enough make a compass, make a water bottle, make rope.

Would it be possible, please, to have a 1h30 katana video? Or even full viking video? I would love to be able to revisit your old projects in one stand and I am pretty sure I wouldn't be the only one!

I think Alec's voice crack yelling at Jaime hurt my ears more than the machine at 2:50 (Headphone warning part)

[cosmojev]

I like everything Alec builds, its just so cool to see everything come together in multi part videos!

[FlooringIT]

I don't think I've ever managed to watch one of these so soon after posting it's so exciting

[poppyth]

Love the videos Alex and I’d like to add Jamie has been chipping in with some good ideas and I gotta give you props for listening. That’s what makes you so good in my opinion always with an open mind looking to learn new things.

[LukeBeks]

Jamie's super silent "that's what she said"s were just comedy gold

[cacon]

this is the first alec steele series ive really enjoyed in a couple years. something about alec being back in england with just him and jamie makes the best content

[ScamstinCrew]

For flaring use various diameter ball bearings and the arbor press. You could also use some removable shims while flaring to ensure there is enough movement.

[stLeviathan]

Honestly I live this "makeing stuff out of other stuff " series he's been on recently

[NoliferCarl]

This has been a really fun project. I find these ones where you make "things" such as tools and this rather than "weapons" to be more interesting because I can make a real life relation to the object

[apollolux]

Groovy knife! Now that y'all are starting to get acquainted with serrated knives, I'd like to see you do comparisons of how easy it is to make a round serrated edge versus a trapezoidal or "Double-D" serrated edge like Cutco knives and your own experiences on cutting differences between them.

[axelregnell]

The most subtle "that's what she said" I've ever heard. Absolutely loved it! Many thanks, Jamie

[rogergil]

I love these non-blade clips. Have you ever thought of forging things like shields, brass knuckles, and shovels?

[legosharktruck]

I really appreciate the move back to knives while staying very fresh. Thank you for the great inspection.

[andromidius]

Its amazing what final touches and assembly can do - it goes from looking far from finished to looking fantastic in just a few steps (that probably took hours IRL). Nice little knife!
