Unfold it already! Arrrgh!! Came on autoplay so I missed the thumbnail then it takes 7:00 min to find out even what kind of knife it is (Lockback Tanto). So for the painfully slow monotone First 7 minutes it's just annoying not knowing what you're looking at. The angle never changes you don't even know it's if it's symmetrical on the other side. Really nice that somebody's doing high-end Customs on RU-vid finally. But going over some S.A.E measurements, weights (especially that fat little thing) steel types in the beginning would be nice. Bauhaus was a school of German Modernist design begun in the 1920's and 30's. Is it for sale? Personally I'm not one of these people who needs to know how much but everyone else in the world definitely is.
Hi, thanks for the comment. I'm the first to say that I'm not good at speaking and presenting, I just do it because nobody else does it on this type of knife. Still, I'm always trying to improove and am definitely going to take your comments into consideration. Really like honest comments so thanks. Just would like to stress out that in the intro (first minute) you already see almost all the details of the knife. So at least it gives you an idea of the knife immediately ^^ But I see what you mean, and hope you'll see the improvement in my next videos.
Why are knife reviews always about 10 times as long as they have to be? Maybe think about what you're going to say and script it out, so you're not blathering aimlessly for 15 minutes.
If your asking about what this knife can do, then you obviously have no business buying them. Its not about what they can do physically its about what they can do for you financially. And im not talking about profit
I would not call this "Bauhaus". This can hardly be described as "Form follows function". It rather looks like a Bauhaus concept art that happens to be a knife
He does have a milling machine, surface grinder and a precision toolroom lathe. I wonder if he's bought time on a wire EDM for some of his latest designs.
Very nice review, i like how you take our atention to all the small details that we might miss. 👍 Steigerwalt is one of the greats. His designs are fantastic.. Would be interesting to see a collaboration between Steigerwalt and GTC..
Alors franchement je suis mitigé... D'un point de vue design et esthétique il est irréprochable, par contre, d'un point de vue pratique (utilisation) je pense que la lame tanto a ses limites.
Très juste, c'est vraiment ce que j'appelle un "couteau d'art", le but c'est la recherche dans le design et la technique, qui prend le dessus sur le côté pratique. Il ne servira sans doute jamais, mais je voulais quand même préciser que ça restait un couteau, et ça coupe super bien :-)
May I ask how much did you pay for this one. I’m asking because there is a similar one potentially for sale and I would like to know what’s a fair price. Thank you.
In the Bauhaus, usability is paramount. The design of such things that are created to be exclusively usable is said to be estethically beautiful. So they are mostly minimalistic, crude and sufficiently worked. No decorations.
Manufacturability was also key for the Bauhaus designers. Bauhaus wasn't about angularity: it was about an ideal that common people could live in comfort. Breuer cane chairs have no angles, they're bent steel tubes, wood, and wicker, because that was easily manufacturable and affordable. So Steigerwalt's knife isn't more Bauhaus than an Opinel knife.
Absolutely stunning, but aside from the cutting part of the blade I fail to understand how it fits the "Bauhaus" description. To me it feels as if a "Bauhaus" blade was put into an ItalDesign body. The shape of the cutting portion of the blade seems purely functional and "simple" (!) in certain ways (not in the way it was made, definitely). However, the maker appears to have made the folder that way, with all those angles, grind directions, and inlays, just because HE CAN. If this knife is to be judge by its cutting edge alone, then sure, it was indeed reduced to its pure functional state without any unnecessary element to interfere with its purpose. As a whole package, it looks like a Lamborghini, nothing quite "simple" about it. For me I really appreciate the blade. This shape allows my crude hands to sharpen it easily without fuss. Also, because I don't have to continually adjust the blade as it glides on the stone, I can maintain the designer-intended grind angle and avoid scratches during sharpening by hand. On 2 stones and 1 strop this will be a 1-minute re-sharpening every time if I don't nick the blade or feel the need to sharpen the poky end.
I see what you mean. I guess the maker just had to find a name ;-) Thanks for your very interesting comment, I agree about all you said, and the blade is also what I like the most in it ;-)
Désolé j'ai craqué j'ai spoilé ta vidéo francophone et j'arrivais plus a attendre😁🔝magnifique pièce je comprend que tu est craqué suis fou du design💪💪💪🔝🔝🤩🤩
They get made because there are people who want to buy them. It's not a pocket knife but an art knife, as useless as a Ferrari of a haute horology piece. Hopefully there are people to buy these too !
