I really miss the two of you together. You are both great separately, but the amount of fun you have together is what makes it special. Neither of you ever stop smiling and it’s pretty awesome.
I highly recommend getting some hearing protection for the dogs that hang around the workshop. If you need hearing protection yourself, your dog should be wearing some too as their ears are more sensitive than ours
I've loved metal working for years I found alec back when he still had dirt floors and there's never been a chemistry on his channel like the time he and Will spent together some of the best work on RU-vid. More collaboration from you two its been to long!
Hey you guys remember when Alec used to make blacksmith videos? Good times! Wish we could get some more like the old days. Could really go for a 15 part project.
Enjoyed seeing you guys together again. I saw Will in the picture that Tyrell Knifeworks put in his video of his JS graduating class. I couldn't be happier for will with his new JS rating. Congrats to you Will and safe travels for you Alec
It brings me so much happiness to see you two together again as best friends and making awesome stuff. It's nostalgic lol. Freakin awesome, I couldn't help but to to smile throughout the entire episode.
Always outstanding to watch two highly skilled craftsmen work together. It helps that both of you know how each other works though. Just flawless teamwork, its a thing of beauty to watch
Someone tell me how he managed to make a smoke ring at 1:47 ish. Never seen that happen before! And, I agree with most of the other people here.. you two make a great team, and it needs to happen a lot more than not.
i think its a great idea going around the world going to different blade smith shops, you start with steel in england and have a finished blade in america, do a little at one shop, do a little more at another, see different techniques find new friends.
So good to see you guys working together again. I look forward to Will's master hand on the finished blade, and whatever Alec comes up with by using the spinning doo-dacky in his milling machine.
Very good to see the two of you back together. I know it's been a lot because of the shutdown, but I miss the regular videos of well crafted weapons being churned out. Both individual channels aren't quite up to par with when the two of you were partnered up. You two make a great team.
I'm not sure what separated the both of you, but seeing you together is amazing! You both feed off each other, and bring the best out in each other. Glad to see you both doing a vid again! you both are the two sides to a single coin.. best to both of you!
I love watching you guys work together ❤. It allows me to continue to continue blacksmith and creating through you guys. My disease limits my abilities to do it anymore. I wish I could make a project with either of you. Would be cool to make something that will be here when I'm gone. Congrats William
That robot hammer is really just automating the process of using blocks to stop the hammer. I'm not sure for me that takes that much away from it. You both have used stopper blocks to prevent the hammer from going past a desired point. So cool. Will has such cool machinery.
It's so cool to see the two of you working a shop together, simply for the sheer amount of fucking skill visible. You work with and around each other in the way that only people who have practiced for ages can, and you are both incredible smiths in your own right. Add those facts together, and you get some kickass results.
I'm not a blacksmith, I'll likely never get into metal working myself, but damn do I enjoy these videos. Also I must say, Will's earth-shatteringly enormous power hammer is an absolutely thing of beauty, it looks so Victorian era Industrial Revolution, back when they made machines well and made them with style. What a magnificent machine that thing is, looks like it belongs in the engine room of an English WWI battleship.
I cannot emphasize this enough... will and alec make such an amazing team!! I forgot how much I missed this duo! Please please please more content with will!!!
I agree with so many who have commented already that it is great to see you two working together again. Congrats to you Will and I wish you both the very best. Take care and God bless.
I remember once in the time you guys making a damascus pirate sword in tiny england workshop! Sans commenting who will pay for all this material! 👏👏👏 glorious friendship
Really admire that Will went his own way. I don't know the details obviously but I'd imagine it would've been easy to stay attached to Alex with his already established business etc. However it came about, much respect to both of these young dudes doing their thing and being creative.
Yeah he's got a real skill for finding talented people and both learning from them and helping them. As you say, could have stuck with Alec's more established business but the guy has his own passions and is going after them big time, always gotta respect that. Seeing all the stuff Will learnt from Alec and now Will teaching lots of techniques around knife making and his different tools is super cool
you guys really have some fantastic chemistry on camera. I dont know what its like in the personal department, but for entertainment purposes you guys are just great.
Lol I’m doing a brute de forge style kiradashi at the moment myself, I on the other hand am doing it ALL by hand!! Me, a Vice, a punch, and a hammer! You remember guys, the “fun way” haha 😂 it’s a unique style, one of kind blade tho. I combined several cool features and came up with this, once it’s closer to done I’ll post pics 👍
had flash backs if Alec and Sam hammering on things late at night while trying to avoid getting rained on because that roof just more of a suggestion than a real thing, and ordering Pizza at some point during the live stream
Awesome to see you guys collaborating again. It felt bittersweet when Will decided to do his own thing but now it feels like he's really thriving and the collaborations are better than they've ever been ❤
after will started his channel i was kinda glad cuz then i got twice the content from two cool creators, and seeing you guys collab feels kind of nostalgic at this point haha
Congratulations will journeyman Smith. Absolutely brilliant. I have got to admit it was quite frightening what you bend that knife past 90ﾟ You deserve all the success that is going to come. And looking forward to Alex finishing off that And wife.
After seeing this video I only just gave some thought as to how different a mechanical power hammer is to your pneumatic one's. That thing is a beast. Also Alec you need to make your trips to the US longer man, last time it was what less than a day this time I'm guessing it was a week.
