I watched a live recently and 2 very known knifetubers reported China is making the best knives in the world at the moment. I was thinking, what a load of rubbish. They might be the cheapest but far from the best. The rest of the world us still producing some amazing cutlery. 👊
Wow…!!! Absolutely brilliant video!!!! Some fantastic knives on display!!! I can imagine it would make it tough deciding what to pick up!!! Jane sounds fantastic… just the kind of person you would want running that shop… the other staff sound great too! I’m going to visit… look’s too good not to… Thanks for posting this one and all the other videos mate..👊🏻 Oh yeah.. I’ve got a few old Sheffield knife boxes.. think you’d appreciate a look at… I’ll post some pics on discord this week.. keep a lookout for them!!! Cheers brother, catch you soon 😎👊🏻
Thanks for the video.... i was visiting some relatives in Yorkshire and paid a visit to the famous Sheffield shop. They had confirmed to me that they would be open even though it was Good Friday.... well i was overwhelmed by all the pocket knives from various makers and ended up buying three barlows: An A. Wright and son is stag, a Michael May in ebony and turquoise and a premium Taylor's eye witness in buffalo. Now i am back in Malta and am so happy to have some real Sheffield cutlery in my collection!!! Thanks so much for your inspirations
Brilliant comment, mate. Some fine knives for the collection there, mate. Ant good knife shops in Malta? A place me and Mrs have always wanted to go on holiday. Hope you had a good trip over here, mate? 👊
@SteelCityKnives sorry for late reply. Unfortunately, we don't have dedicated knife shops here. We got individual importers of some brands like victorinox, leatherman and spyderco. I usually buy from european online shops or buy when i am on holiday as this time. Having said that, i am sure you will love a stay in malta during summer if you can handle the heat :) 😀... if you happen to be on the island please make sure to comtact me before as it would be a pleasure for me to take you and your mrs around some nice places.
Great photos thanks for that..I have bought from there and had great service I would love to visit the shop if only it was closer or I was younger ,but your video was a good and easy option.
@@SteelCityKnives Haha. Fair cop! I have filmed 3 videos but not edited them yet. Took some time off over Easter. Nice to have a break from YT. Too many ideas and not enough time!!
@MB_EDC I really enjoyed the interview video, mate. It was absolutely brilliant. You have a good personality for it. You make people feel at ease, Mark. If that was the first, it's going to be a fantastic series!!
Definitely do it, Gary. If you call up, you can get a tour of the cutlers hall. There are some amazing pieces there. Check out the Kelham museum also. Cheers mate 👊
Would love that Michael May Lambfoot with Welsh Rams Horn, been waiting to pick up Arthur Wright Buffalo horn Lambsfoot always out of stock might be better go for Welsh Rams Horn instead as it is available. Great video mate keep em coming. 😁
@@ed.barker7069 I have checked and they are in stock but much more expensive than other retailers, think the Michael May a better buy to be honest. Cheers anyway. 😁
Even though Duncans is expensive. It's always good to know all these sellers as some do have things others don't. I've never bought anything from Duncans. But thanks for the heads up. Hi both 👋
Morning brother, another fantastic video , brought back some good memories, they really are one of a kind, very philosophical in the end wow haha , I'm already part of the 90's original rave scene history 🤣🤣 now knives too 😁👊
I caught the back end of the rave scene. A lot of messy ones 🤣😂🤣 I don't know where that end bit came from. I've been looking at the cutlery industry differently since starting youtube. Looking at the big picture and us as part of history. I can't think about anything else sometimes 😕. I think it's losing all those great American companies....it makes me sad. 👊
As I live in the UK, I spent a lot of time looking at a decent slipjoint knives, ending up getting myself a jack wolf knive, as my edc ,but I never thought about all of those knives that you are showing, wow some lovely looking ones! 😮😊
If you are ever up in the Lake District there is a fieldsports shop in Keswick that has 3 or 4 glass cabinets rammed with knives! I bought a Buck canoe last time i stayed there. Beautiful scenery,real ale and knives,what more do you need?😉
That sounds brilliant. I'm trying to get a bit of a list together of knife shops here in the UK. It's on the list cheers Ian, I'll put your name in brackets so I remember who told me about it 😂. Knife nerd 🤓 😂
How are you doing, brother? Is that Case book any good? I'm always on the hunt, brother. Need to track down a Goins encyclopedia that's the grail book atm. Sending well wishes from across the pond 🫡 👊
You gonna wind up a legend your own self, if you ain't careful Worse still, it's gonna change you, I mean, if every other youtuber there's ever been is any kind of measure. Try to keep it to a minimum
@Zen_Ali_123 I enjoy your comments, Zen 😂🤔 I'm an idiot and you give me a lot of food for thought. I needed to ask the Mrs for her opinion on that one 😂. Always a pleasure Zen 🤝
I have enjoyed your video so much. This is a day you will not forget soon. I agree with you on that Gunstock Pattern I picked it before you said a word about it. It is a work of Art to Me .I used to do interior house trim and those sheepfoot,coping,lambsfoot,rams foot are a must and they are an awesome EDC also. You can do more of these type videos If you want LOL
😂🤣😂 I will try and do some similar videos to this. I really enjoyed doing this. Cheers Doug, always enjoy your comments, mate. I'm very jealous of your gunstock 🤯🤪. Cheers 🍻
Thanks for showing us this shop in detail,, 👍,, I'm gonna start gradually saving now, and a visit here for my birthday in October, is definitely on the cards,, Cheers mate, 😊 ps, do they buy /sell second hand books?, I've a couple of expensive Bowie knife books, that I'd love to "exchange" for actual knives,, Cheers again,, 👍
If you can't return it. Try giving the joints some oil. A. Wright are renowned for having tough pulls. Not all Sheffield knives are like that. Let me know how you get on mate. I might buy it off ya
😂😅😂 Hi Ed 👋 It's a dangerous place 😂. Cheers for the comment, mate. It's always good to hear from you. You were the person that got me first going, mate. Hope you're doing well, mate? 🫡 👊
I'm desperate to travel around America 😂. Hope you're doing well Ray? I really wanted to do your back to the future open tag. Brilliant open tag brilliant title. So busy at the moment....my youtube fiming has gone to pot! Cheers brother 🫡 👊
My pommy mate! Good job I don't live in England or I would be loitering there too much! I could spend hours on those brochures love it all! I have been wanting to reply to your episode on Empire knives but my tablet is broken..see how I go!
You can keep a sword if you want. Just not carry it around the street. For the street it has to be under 3" blade and non-locking. @@Mid-Knife-Crisis69
Most traditional knives are legal to carry in the UK. The legality is non locking and 3" or under. Certain places you can't take them such as Schools etc. Cheers both 👊
Not to my knowledge. New knives is all I've ever seen on the site and in the shop. Etsy UK has some brilliant sellers for that. I'll warn you, though. They also have some sellers that charge a fortune for stuff. Do your homework on the knife, is what I would advise. And haggle. Keep us posted, mate. If you pick anything up.
@asensibleyoungman2978 They were man's first tool. Never "just knives." My channel focuses on handmade traditional knives. An industry that has been going for 100s and 100s of years. And the stories and history that have moulded the industry. People train and carry out an apprenticeship to produce these amazing knives. Some are work horses. Some are works of art. I will try and show a bit of everything. It's a hobby that will take you all over the world in the search. Meet some fantastic people. We are not talking about weapons but a daily carry tool. I'm a DIY'er, gardener, and work with my hands for a living. They prepare my food. I use mine many times a day. Always in my pocket. If you're a young man. You shouldn't be seeing my content. I put not for children on my videos. They demand respect as they have the potential to cause harm in the wrong hands. But the people in this hobby are upstanding members of their community. Law-abiding citizens.
@asensibleyoungman2978 Sorry, you can't be too careful. I want to be promoting responsible knife usage. To me, they are a tool. Thanks for your comments, though. Gave me chance to word why I love knives so much. 👊
