Alec Steele, blacksmith and motivational speaker!

[walterterrell]

Who needs coffee to start the day. A little Alec Steele video first thing in the morning is the way to start the day. Your enthusiasm is infectious and is a great help to plow through the work day. Thank you for such great content and such an amazing attitude!

[clintonbarger]

Since you like to eat almost every episode I suggest Damascus spoon, fork and butter knife. Also Damascus scissors

[MrZmann]

I wish more people had Alec's mindset. A person who creates amazing pieces of work and overcomes just about any obstacle that comes his way. His entire attitude revolves around the idea of " I can and I will".
Kudos for having that sort of mentality.

i love the new spooky parts of the videos! it really makes for interesting cinematography.

Been watching you for a little while now & I must say that your energy & enthusiasm for your craft is amazing to say the least. You've taught me an absolutely incredible lesson when making things & that is how mistakes show you what you've done wrong but equally as important is to make that into a positive. To have to remake something sucks but I have a new outlook when things go that way. Love your videos, hope you keep making them for a long long time. Congrats on your new workshop, it looks awesome! You truly have a beautiful soul & your energy is infectious. Thank you for being you & for what you do!

The end of the video was just so damn inspirational. Now I want to do something. I'm not gonna do anything... but it made me want too lol

[Dillan.]

your love for what you do is inspiring. it shows in your work and in your videos. I'm glad I get to experience this road with you. I can't speak for all of Texas but I can for this little piece. we'll continue to support you in the long haul however we can

After this you could try to forge a shield.

[bigbravebeard]

Alec you are just as proud as a father that has just held his sun for the first time ! Love your joy you show to us

[russ.howell]

In another life you are a director/producer. Great videos.

[Pedro-kexp]

i'm Brazilian 16 years old and today evening I just started forging because of you, and it is really AWESOME! I hope some day I get as skilled as you are

[briangastineau_]

Alec, for your next project could you attempt making a small damascus anvil?!? that'd be cool!!!!

[jacobhamilton]

good on ya! I don't do anything like blacksmithing, I'm a gymnastics coach but passion for what you do is always a good way to get others interested in what you love, and you've got that in truck loads!!!

[Danmazzei]

I really really enjoy your videos mate ... you're so inspiring!
Thanks for

[Yharn-rg]

approximately 6 months ago I watched one of your videos and I was completely mesmerized by the passion and intelligence you showed in blacksmithing and metal work. I think your videos are fantastic and I look forward to all of your next projects. If ever I find a seriously brilliant project I will let you know and hopefully see you work on it in the show!
Thanks again

on a scale from 1 to 10, how pissed do you think skallagrim is?

[Ironraven]

Making things is indeed one of life's greatest feelings! I get the same rush of elation when I finish writing a book that I do when I finish putting the final edge on a knife. Love your videos, the editing and your general enthusiasm sets them apart from everyone else out there sharing videos of making cool stuff.

[chrish]

Alex your enthusiasm is infectious, love your work and your
ideas, don't be afraid of mistakes - the day you stop making mistakes is the
day you stop learning.

[degreestudio]

Are you going to put your touch mark on the pommel?  That would look sweet!
