I remember watching your "homemade weapons pt 1 & 2". Its really crazy how far you've came man
Fr. Time flies and things change, but I'm glad he's still around through it all. :)
Only legends remember the throwing squares lol
@@autumnsilverwinds4990 the ABSOLUTE disrespect this man had on the flattened throwing fork
Honestly I remember watching those too , Eli’ s journey has been a pretty amazing ride to see 🤟🏻
Only legends remember that he doesn’t swing it like that (that’d be gay)
I have never successfully cast the labels onto my brass bars before, so good job on that super advanced technique.
The forbidden "barcode forge" technique
I can't like your comment, cuz it's already at 69. Nice. But here is my like 👍
@@augustcook5537 You tried Brother. You tried.
Glad to see you've found a use for the Gaboon Ebony scales I sent you in Alpha Mail 2 on your new knife!
how long did it take for him to finally use them?
@@markhendley5559 I sent them to him back in September, I believe he opened them around October, so about a year-ish
that handle is sweet!
@@colephillips8740 pretty in character for him lol
He should at least pin this comment. Didn’t even have the decency to name/thank you in this video yet basically begging for people to send him more cool stuff. I like the dude but Cmon a little gratitude doesn’t hurt
Been watching you for years, always the highlight of my day when you upload. Thanks for sticking with it man
Always the highlight of my 2 month wait for another ZNA productions upload.
i laughed so hard when he cast the brass and then it cut to a different piece of brass with a label still on it
Same here mate XD
Haha it had to have come out like crap haha
Uh, anyone who has poured molten brass would know that it wasn't a label, it's a byproduct of pouring into a steel muffin pan. It's okay, it's a common mistake
Lol 12" piece from Ace Hardware😂
Same
Having been around since the ice skate “wrist blades”, both with and without an account, its amazing to have watch Eli grow both literally and metaphorically
Ever since I saw your pvc long bow video about 6 or 7 years ago I’ve been a huge fan of yours! I’m always thrilled to see you’re still making videos man keep it up!
yeah! I'm also here thanks to the pvc bows videos, good times!
Amazing to see you doing well Eli. Praying for you and your family.
The knife was clean as heck. Also congrats on the marriage.
always good to have our boi Eli show he's still alive and learning new things.
it might be just me but i miss when you'd show more of the material removal. it was a sort of relaxing thing to watch with the music playing but now it feels like you start the process then jump cut to something else and i kind of feel cheated.
literally the only thing i'll nitpick. it was a sweet build.
I love how you kept the footage of melting down that gorgeous candle holder just to brush it off and not use it at all
I cracked up when I saw the barcode!! xD
Bro that shit is CLEAN
Came for the knife
Stayed for the memes
I always love watching your videos, Eli.
Keep up the amazing work!
Congrats on the marriage too!
Your humor and edits are cash money! Thanks for the laughs and content. Also, sweet blade!
It’s crazy, I haven’t watched a video from this channel in so long, and it’s exactly what I hoped it would be coming back, love this guy
Eli, I really hope you know and never forget that the world is a better place because you're in it! I wish we were friends in real life, but I'm super happy I at least get to watch your videos.
Thank you!
The pour and then showcase of a new blank made me wheeze thank you
much appreciation Eli! great to have you back. I've been slurping up your sweet, juicy content for years now. and thanks to your videos, we now have the same taste in music, especially when working on projects
Happy to hear about the wedding going well. And happy to hear for you again!
That’s a super cool knife bro, nice work
I love to see another man of God working on weaponry, no real reasons, just simply because he enjoys doing so. It’s a relief to see a channel like yours. I appreciate all you do, fellow Crusader.
This isnt just a weapon this is a working tool. Would want one in a sheath while hiking
@@poopsiepop4179 I couldn’t agree more, see I was more so talking about our friend’s channel in general.
Fake
@@creatorofallthings2801 explain yourself
@@johnnymods4914 Hey bro, no disrespect at all meant here, but it’s a capital G God. Not usually one to point stuff out like that, but that one is important.
Eli I honestly feel you're the best youtuber. You may not get crazy amounts of views but you genuinely teach people, you get people interested in wood and metal working and you do a fantastic job of it. And to top it all off, you're hilarious and just a joy to watch. You always make my month
u were my first sillybilly youtuber parasocial relationship (i still remember being SO Invested about your old irl life events) when i was in middle school (i am now 23) and its insane to see how much you've grown. I think the last time i watched your content was like 2018?? Time sure goes fast. Happy to see you're still doing well :)
I still like seeing you work that sander, but honestly, I've enjoyed all the vids you've put out so far, so honestly dude, Im here for the long run EYYY!
Thank you, Eli. I've watched on and off since I was a kid. Now look at us, all grown up :p.
I really enjoy everything you make, and even on days when my mental health is doing it's best to OBLITERATE me off the face of this Earth you still manage to get me to laugh, or at least forget about the terrible thoughts and be inspired by your craftsmanship (you really have come a long way from stock removal to hand-forged knives that look SICK!)
I’m glad to see this man evolved from apocalypse weapons days
Please never stop making videos Eli 👍
Amazing. I'm glad you are back. I'll be waiting for that sword.
Dude, that knife looks awesome!
Love your vids man. Im always happy to see a new video in my sub feed.
Melts brass. Perfectly into new rectangle bar with stickers
Eli may not upload very often, but when he does, it's special
So Glad you're living the dream my man, if anyone deserves it, it's you!
thanks for all you do, take it easy, and lose (back fat)
That knife is looking mighty schmooth my man. Keep up the great work, and congrats to you and the Mrs!
Congratulations on the wedding Eli!!!! I wish you both many long happy years together :)
you deserve it :)
I respect your recognition of being “not that guy,” at least in certain areas. Your videos are awesome to me because of the editing and particular humor we’ve all come to recognize over years. I appreciate your stuff for the process more than the product. Just do what’s uniquely you, that’s why we’re here. Also cool ring bro congrats
It’s weird to think that I’ve been watching you make random dangerous crap since I was a little kid. And now I’m watching you three weeks before I head off to Paris island for boot camp
1)congrats on getting married
2)I always get so hyped with the guile theme lol. Thanks for another cool video man!
3) Please restock purple hoodies so I can spend tomorrow's paycheck
The knife is good, but man, the sheath is on another level
Glad to see you doing well man hope your having fun
Oohhh, that's a nice knife💜
great to hear from you agaaain!!!
Freakin love this channel! Humor on point. Good builds. Cool dude. What more could you ask for? Congratz on the wedding and honeymoon!
4:23 man either didn’t care to take the bar code off or wanted us to see it. Either way, it was hilarious 🤣
Man I missed your videos. I've always loved the music you pick it's always so chill
Glad you're doing well Eli! Always love the videos.
Glad ya back man. I loved watchin all of your videos back in the day. Still do!
The king has returned. Absolutely love this channel
A heaven sent gift on this fine day. We missed you man, hope the honeymoon was great!
it's a good day when eli uploads once a year
It looks absolutely amazing
Honestly man you are one of the few creators i can watch videos from start to finish and genuinely enjoy, thanks for making great content🔥
It's good to see you again eli. I remember watching your homemade gorilla pod episode and ending with a bit where you could go outside, find a woman and be happy, and you really did it. I couldnt be happier for you, and I cant wait for the videos to come
Dude your editing is so much better!!! I really enjoyed it, keep it up!
This video was amazing. Editing, humor, knife making- all on point. Never stop bro 🙏
always happy whenever i see you upload something. Genuinely the highlight of my day
Looks like a knife someone would be proud to own.
4:21 You are the *master* of comedic timing. Kudos. I needed that.🤣
Why is this the nicest video this channel has ever produced? Awesome work
Man I used to watch you so much in high school, good to see your videos are as good as ever
I've been around your channel for a long time and I swear your editing is always improving. Love it☝️
I really love your editing and humour! These videos are GOLD
Congrats! Always good to see you again.
Always worth the wait to see u on the screen again! You always give me a good laugh and provide some dope content
We’ve missed you Eli. Thanks for blessing our YT feeds.
Such a joy watching your work.
Bless you my friend.
i first found you years ago on your energy blade video and then just recently found you again and i gotta say im glad to see your still making videos
Man no matter how many times I watch your knife making vids they always are satisfying as heck to watch! That’s for all the vids tbh but hope you know that I’m no where close to getting sick of them
Glad to have your back Eli. I hope your marriage is long and prosperous. I pray that God will bless you and your wife.
My man's talking into a lamp
Lmaoooooo
I grew up watching you, it’s amazing to see you at 1.25 million subscribers and I’m so glad you’ve gotten so far and hopefully you can blow up again I miss all the crazy vids and the quality now is soooo good and wholesome
it makes me happy to see you succeed, keep up the good work man ☺️☺️☺️
Beautiful work, glad to see Eli back with that high qual 'tent
Bro you uploaded! I'm just happy to see always improve your channel and your self. I can't have a work shop rn/yet so watching you do stuff is cool. I can watch anyone on UA-cam for a knife making video, but you make the other 80%of the content. I will gladly wait for the next upload, rest up work hard.
Always a joy to see you’ve uploaded
Congratulations and I wish you and your new wife all the best. And beautiful knife also.
I always leave after a ZNA video with a smile on my face.
Same, bro. Eli can always make me laugh!
What a beauty. I think that is the nicest knife/weapon/thing you've ever made. When you put it into the sheath I audibly gasped, funny video and incredible work.
You harp on yourself about not uploading enough but honestly it makes your videos more of an event, every time I see a new upload I immediately watch it, the quality is definitely worth the time
He's really good at casting brass.
It quite literally makes my month when I see a new upload from you
Bro. you are the only youtuber I've encountered with the smack dab, perfect humor for my distractible brain bitz. You are a legend. Keep it up.
Comes back, makes a sweet knife, AND he's married?!
10/10 would watch again
That brass part made my day. Thx for the laughs
Didn’t think i needed this relaxing funny content. You always come at the right time. Keep it up bro!!💯🔥
That thing turned out sweeeeeet! Nice work!
I'm so happy for you man! 💓
Every new video you post is a highlight to my week/day
What was your highlights for the other 7 weeks?
You may not be "that guy", but you'll always be my favorite smith on youtube, specially with the chill music, i got hit with nostalgia when Bad Snacks played on the later half of the vid, reminded me of when you first started out!
I remember watching your "stitching my own hand shut tutorial" when I was early in HS, grown so far!
He lives! It's _always_ a good day when we hear from ya!
Man it's been a minute since I've watched your videos and I forgot how much I love your music selection. It's just great man. Keep up the great work!
Your videos are my chill pills.
It's good to know you're still out there doing the thing man. Been watching you for a long time. Keep on keepin on my NiNjA
I don’t know why but I stopped watching Eli around the time he made the santa closet video 3 years ago but I stayed subscribed. I saw this pop up in my recommended and boy did I feel bad for not watching. I didn’t even realize i had missed this channel, what other channel can have oddly satisfying videos filled with learning, diy, chill music, and some of the freshest memes. Glad to be back and sorry I left Eli.
Welcome back bro, nice job on the knife
This and the stacked leather grip knife are your drippiest knives. Great vid!
Impressive brass smelting. Made your own barcode stickers and everything.
Always enjoy your vids. Its always a highlight to my day when the notification for your new vids pop up.
Your videos are the best idk how U edit them so well.
The Chinese baby jokes are too real 😂
