Also. I rarely comment on anything. However, I'd very much like to thank you, Matt, Ilya, and Chris for unknowingly mentoring me for the past few years! Specifically, Matt for giving me the confidence to grind freehand! Ilya for the historical information, the confidence to forge more and grind less. Not to mention, in order to be pretentious one must be good. I can't wait to be pretentious! And thanks Chris for your knowledge and examples that brute strength is a valuable commodity.

I want that blade. I’m brand new into blacksmithing and knife making…still building up or making my tools for the craft. At 71, I wish I’d started this a long time ago!😁

I love the videos on this channel the most out of all the blacksmith/knife making channels that are out there. You guys are awesome at your craft, knowledgeable, and overall just seem like good people

Thank you for this video man! I recently got the waterfall attachment for my Brodbeck and I've been curious exactly how to use it to the best effect!

Just 1 Month ago, I made my first knife, under guidance though, and I handgrinded everything. And by that I mean ONLY handgrinding. There wasn't even a powertool in the workshop. I so desperatly wished for some kind of machine. It's ridiculous how annoying that was, so you must have the patience of an angel or something, considering the grinds you have shown on this channel.
