    Incredible. I care for a 95 year old Swedish woman in California. She has several of these little wooden things in her silverware drawer and I had to ask what they were. I didn't know there was such a thing. I was amazed. Hers are just one thickness all the way down, not like your handles, and yours are soooo beautiful. I love old fashioned things in the kitchen. Very cool.

  • @silvergrizzly316
    @silvergrizzly316 6 років тому +37

    WOW!!! The craft of hand made art such as this butter knife your dad has made, has pretty much gone by the wayside. I love watching this process and having it take me back, I've always said, "I was born three centuries to late". 😀,,, tell your dad he is a master of this art. What a GREAT looking piece!!! Thank you for sharing, Simeon.

    • @simeonandalex

      Lol! Born 300 years too late? You would be saying the exact opposite once you got that first toothache! I do agree, sadly, that woodworking is becoming a lost art.

    • @GettingtheTruthOut
      @GettingtheTruthOut 6 років тому +5

      Its not really lost. There are lots of woodworkers out there. However, most in Western countries would rather buy Chinese made goods made with near slave labor because of the cost of making things the proper way seems too "high" for many buyers.

  • @parmodsharma4576
    @parmodsharma4576 6 років тому +3

    what a beautiful knife. I am too old to have this but anyone who gets it should be aware of the work that went into it. Nothing is hand made anymore and this is a work of art and dedication. I hope whoever gets them are appreciative of the work and love that went into it.

  • @halibut1249

  • @EnGammalAmazon

    Butter has always held a special place in our family. I know that Mom taught us all to make butter when we were kids and she had learned it from her mom, a German immigrant to the US. But I think the true love of butter comes from the Swedish side of the family. Dad used to tell the story of my great grandfather (min farmors far) and how he loved butter on his toast. But they grew up in the Depression of the late 1920's and the 1930's. Dad used to tell of how Papa would take his rye toast and pass it in circles above the butter on the table, saying, "I sure love butter on my toast." He would wave the toast over the butter and then eat it dry because as much as he loved butter, they were too poor to buy very much of it and he saved it for the grandkids. My brother and his wife adopted two children from Russia years ago. When my niece and nephew were about four years old, my brother Eric took them to breakfast after church one Sunday. Their food had been served and the waitress came back to see if there was anything else that anyone needed. Alex looked up at her and said, "I would like some butter please." The waitress left and came back with one of the small, white paper cups with ball of whipped margarine in it and placed it on the table next to him. Eric said that Alex leaned forward and looked at the pale yellow glob in the paper cup, looked up at the waitress, looked back at the cup, looked back at her and said, "This isn't butter. We're Fritches and we eat butter." The waitress was stunned and Eric said he about fell off his chair! He had no idea where Alex came up with that line, but it does tell the deep connection to butter that our family has!

      @simeonandalex  6 років тому

      Haha, that is funny. It's true though. There is such a difference in butter today. My sisters fiancé said that his grandparents were farmers and they ate one pack of butter every day.

  • @johodges4399
    @johodges4399 6 років тому

    I have been sculpting and selling spoons and wooden utensils for 20 years, and I enjoyed your video so much. We use mineral oil in our finish because, as others have pointed out, vegetable oil can become rancid. I am mostly concerned about vegetable oil on utensils to be sold because of the prevalence of peanut allergies. Butter too can become rancid, so we use detergent when we wash our utensils, and we suggest re-oiling whenever the piece feels dry. Mineral oil can be found in the laxative aisle of your grocery/drug store, and Vaseline works well on any wood.

I will have to try copying it with hard maple & walnut hope mine comes out as good as your dads. Since seeing your vidio on using wood chips for a garden I have saved all my wood chips in a bin for a year and next summer will use them for tha garden. I'm always anxious to see every vidio you do thank you
