MOST EXCELLENT!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐🤩🤩🤩🤩

That’s not a knife……..that’s a work of art.

I have a real antique I*XL Hoof knife with bone handle, which i found in my g-grandfathers shop decades after he left this earth.

In case you are unaware, this is what the term "craftsmen" comes from and I would rather pay for quality than except the mass produced rubbish from China.

Michael May still makes knives this way, and my custom "Ergonomic" in Bog Oak is sheer perfection,, Long live Yorkshire,,

No wonder these companies went broke. Paying little old men to hand-fiddle these together at a rate of 3 a day must have been ruinous. & I speak as a 57 year old Yorkshireman who has owned Joseph Rodgers and Taylors knives all my life.

WOW !

All of that decorative filework could be done with ease on a wheel, but then it wouldn't be a top quality handmade Sheffield knife. A delight to watch, thanks for posting.

Honest hand made quality craftsmanship. May we never lose sight of this.

Love knives love ❤️ I*XL knives the most!!!

I used to have loads of these pen knives when I was a boy an always carried one in my pocket. I have just found two knives in a second hand shop … one I paid £7.50 an a larger one for £12.50 , I cleaned them up a bit an now look lovely again an will hopefully go on for a good few more years yet .

Ooooo 💥

Lovely! I like the Barlows by IXL.

I have a weird dagger type lockknife that belonged to my grandad. It has a Rodgers & Sons (iirc, but it might just be Joseph Rodgers) blade and is basically a lock knife dagger with maybe a third of the long blade sticking out of the end of the knife handle. It's all quite loose and floppy and the finish of it is like it is home made. I don't know if it was a proper factory/workshop made knife or if it was maybe fashioned together in the trenches of ww1 or something. It is made of steel, brass and wood. It has a double crossguard that slides into place when the knife is open and is made from not very thick strips of brass. I think it's probably a home made knife using a blade from another kind of knife. The blade has a fair amount of play up and down, but is pretty firm side to side. It reminds me a little of those cheap (indian?) locking knives with the dark wooden scales brass ends on the handle. It mostly likely originally belonged to either my nans dad or my grandads dad. I'm doubting that locking folding knives would have been manufactured with a good portion of the sharp blade projecting from the end of the handle when it's closed but then again if it were in a holster or sheaf of some kind it could be usefull in a war situation to quickly whip it out and be able to use the portion of blade sticking out as a weapon or use it for quickly cutting something without having to unfold the blade.

This looks good for the camera, but it won't be the one RUSHED on a Friday to finish early, or the one produced after a BOOZY weekend, with blades out of alignment, blunt edges, etc

What an exceptional beautiful knife! Too bad they are so hard to find...

$2 a half dozen and worth it

Is that what England calls FORGING NOW !

That's a really fascinating inlay devise! A simple bow drill and a twin-spanned stylus-great stuff, and something I've never seen!

I wonder how much these go for, brand new? 🤔

I see you making third pattern F/S but you don't have any 3rd. Pattern knives for sale on your websight is there anyway to get a Joseph Rodgers 3rd. Pattern F/S knife ???

Perfect craftsmanship the entire time but can’t put a proper tip on a blade?

I have a Joseph Rodgers pocket knife which I bought in the 80's which I think is either a forgery or made from inferior materials under contract. It has black scales. The swivel point metal is yellowish in color, something like the color of certain bolts and nuts are today. The blade rusts, so it is not stainless steel. I have only sharpened the knife four of five times and the blade is starting to 'hollow.' It was in a Joseph Rodgers box with a pamphlet inside explaining the markings on the blade, I have had one or two Rodgers knives before this one and my dad carried several all his life, and their quality was far superior to the one I now have. I live in South Africa. Greetings, André Pienaar

I love knives and I love to sometimes forge simple fixed blades but my gosh this type of work would drive me crazy! It gives me a tedious, hectic feeling just watching; I have no clue how people have the patience and skill to do this. Even if I somehow got it assembled, dont worry, it would not work right. Great vid!

I love this video as much as I love my Sheffield Made Knives (I’ve at least a dozen, maybe 20).

Since Craftsman invest so much time Making Your Beautiful Knives the Least you could do is Buy Your Craftsmen some Boots that don't have Holes and Steel Toes Falling Out??? Beautiful Blade, Crap Boots!

Very excellent craftsmanship from all of you, well done.

I wonder where those knives are made at and the ones owning them must have their knives as collectibles only and not using them for everyday use.

ALL morning to make one knife? that is why they are going out of Business, That is why we have NO knife makers anymore, NO investment, No modernisation No consistency . God I wish it wasn't true.

I own a 1st. Pattern that I had special orders in all black nickel plated it's a perfectly balanced fighting knife though most buy a handmade Pattern 1 to collect I purchased mine for a weapon n carry it daily n practice stabbing n slashing cardboard duct taped together mine got some minor scratches n wear on my Finnish but to quote W.E. Fairbairn my knife is a weapon n a tool not a jewel. Had a handmade o.s.s. pocket sheath made for it to conceal carry it.

I've recently picked up a I*XL pocket knife from an antique dealer. It just caught my eye. I've only recently noticed the markings on the main blade so googled it. I'm really thrilled at what I discovered I'll be on the look out for more from now on 😊

This is one I made for the camera, the one you buy will be to say the least DIFFERENT

It is a called a parser

the old school slipjoints are the best

Looks like it would cost a pretty penny. Beautiful.

What is the name of the tool used to opening the space for the shied (showed in 2:55)? Amazing video ... thanks for showun!

I have a Wilkenson Sword Stockman, Made in Sheffield , England. I can't find any info on it. I was just wondering if you can help me with some info. It appear's to me nicely made. I don't care the wirth of it. But I can't find any info on it., Please help if you can.,,. Oh, Thanx You in advance.,,.

You all should be very proud beautiful work thanks

I am so curious as to the specs on that broaching tool. is it just two high carbon bits spring tensioned apart being fit into a cut out form to work or is there more to it? Oh, it's unfair to be so obsessed with making blades and being stuck in oklahoma and not Sheffield or Solingen.

I'd kill to be employed in your shop.

Awesome Video, I would love to pay a visit to your factory & buy a couple of knives, Would that be possible? I live in Cumbria & would love too get down before the end of the year. Regards Barry.............

Good stuff!

hi, I need help figuring out how good of knife I bought at a pawn shop it's a Wilkinson Sword INOX 3blade Canoe Patern Slipjoint Pocket Knife made in Sheffield, England. it appears to be a nicely made knife, there us nothing in the Internet about Wilkinson Sword Pocket Knives I thought you might help, Thanx in advance, , ,

The pearl handle scales are a little oestentatious for me. Is it possible to order this model it in Rosewood ? Reason I ask is I intend to get a plain blade IX*L Bowie with a Rosewood handle and would love to compliment it.

Thanks for your comments. You can buy I*XL Bowies now on www.sheffieldcollectableknives.com. You can choose from a range of blades, blade markings and handle types and we will hand make it specially for you. The Stockmans knives will be added shortly. The blades on the Stockmans Knife are a main blade which is a Clip-point, a Lambsfoot and a Castrator. The knife is popular with many people, especially livestock farmers with the three blade types covering a multitude of different likely uses. The clip point for piercing and skinning, the lambsfoot for more precise trimming and the castrator for...well...you know! (You can find more information here - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade). As well as this, the knife makes a lovely general purpose pocket knife, hand crafted in Sheffield.

Dont know if someone will reply to this. Quite a beautiful piece. Definetly want a IXL bowie and a folder somwtimw. But can I ask what are the three different blades are conventionaly for?

We will have to see what other reaction we have to the films. All of the current films are shown on this link www.sheffieldcollectableknives.com/films
