Alec Steele Blacksmith 2020 - Розваги
I hope this is only the beginning of the "Build-a" series!!
Build-a-zweihander. Only 85 hours of hand sanding required!
Agreed
Build-a-power-hammer is already going strong!
@@CUclimber don't forget to break it so you have to re make it and sand it all over again
How about a Damascus blade
So psyched my wife ordered me one for xmas.... now I just have to figure out how to tell her that she just ordered me one for Xmas!
Alec, I am really happy to see how big you become in the knife/blacksmith industry . Hard work, good decisions and dedication. High five brother !
I'm glad that our right hand man is still here to keep us entertained and informed :D
Will has become a star of this show.
I'm gonna miss Will
I'm glad this video has only one part !!
Very cool! To enter do we have to build this exact pattern and use only ironwood and brass? Thank you!
I made the best decision in my life. I chose crypto📈 It was a difficult one though. For some time, I have been hearing about an expert Dr. Hamilton, I decided to give him a try and I'm glad I did. With the help of his accurate signals and mind-blowing strategies, I was able to accumulate wealth over a short period of time. Truthfully, making $2300 a week is more than I ever expected.

Kits like this that don't need a bunch of really expensive tools are awesome.
You might reserve judgement on that until you tried making something nice with inferior tools. Sure... it's easy to make a piece of crap with inexpensive tools. That's why everyone is doing it. But unless you want to be one of those people, expect to spend a lot of time and money. There are no shortcuts to quality, and frankly I think this "build a box" idea is catering to people who don't know any better
@@adamschaeffer4057 relax
@@ffdar9119 I don't understand why the truth makes people so uncomfortable. I'm relaxed. I call it how I see it
Skill makes any tool work.
Adam, you should shop around. I hate to troll this, I've watched since Alec's first shop. However, there are knife blanks (beveled even, as well as annealed bar stock) for as low as $6 on Amazon knife blanks. 1080/1095 Damascus blanks as well for less than your whole box price...
I am repeatedly amazed at your organization's attention to detail with your videos and your background work for yourselves, and your customers!!
Every video sponsor announcement should begin with an out-of-the-blue “STOP RIGHT THERE!”
STOP RIGHT THERE

I like Will, I hope he starts a UA-cam channel when he leaves to start his own shop!
Will has gotten so comfortable on the camara since his start.
awesome lesson will 👊🏻
Awesome to see your a fellow fan
Yes, this may be an add for the hunting knife kit, but its also really informative and proof that Will needs to keep making videos after he moves into his own shop.
You should do a chef knife kit also!
I've never really considered blacksmithing, but have been watching this channel for years. If they did a chef's knife kit, I would be all in.
great idea, I have plenty of these camping/hunting knives but all my chef knives suck.
Yes!
yes!
A chef knife kit, a sharpening kit and a sharpening tutorial...
This is an AWSOME idea!!! Finally an actual high quality knife kit! As an aspiring knife maker myself, I love to see anything that encourages new people to get into the craft whether as a hobby or a buisness! I was recently teaching a friend of mine basic knifemaking techniques, and I actually had someone ask me "Why are you teaching people your techniques, won't they just end up being your competitors?" My only answer was "No! they become my peers!" All creative artists feed off each other, the more good makers, the more inspiration! The friend im working with now has been sketching tons in her spare time and she seems to have a flair for trailing point fighter designs, im incredibly excited to see her crafting skills catch up to her design skills!
Would you consider doing a video on how you like to sharpen a knife and what kind of gotchas people should watch out for?
Or even a helpful person that knows this can link to existing videos that talk about this.
@@TomTrustworthy yeah that's my thoughts. There's already a plethora of videos of people sharpening knives. Some of them are even experts at that. Why not let Alec and Will show us things they are expert at.
I use a super fine stone, an industrial ceramic tile, and a full hardness untempered piece of drill rod roughed with 400 grit for a finishing steel. I can shave my face with every knife in my house and none of them are good quality. Don't press too hard or go too long or you will fold the edge over and be frustrated as to why the more you sharpen it, the duller it gets. Steel it every time you use it. This is what I taught while I was learning to gut hogs at a pace sometimes exceeding 300 per hour and it has served me well for almost 20 years now.
@@TomTrustworthy burrfection has some good videos, his are on kitchen knives but its the same idea
@@alexander.angell Yeah I have to see if my dad has the tools needed. Then figure out where to buy steel and a wood worth using. No clue how much it should all cost, the materials that is.
Alec inspired me to become a blade smith a couple years back and watching him and will create things really taught me a lot in the art and now im making good money on my own property doing something i enjoy doing, much love and appreciation guys keep doing you!
I am a hunter and I love to collect different types of hunting knives.
I found a knife online and order it. The knife met my expectations and I just fell in love with it. Incredible! The details and craftsmanship are just breathtaking. It came super fast within a week and a half. I HIGHLY recommend and I will be purchasing more from Almazan Knives. I'm lost for words it's that amazing.
this is honestly just helpful because there aren't a lot of videos from very experienced bladesmiths using a 1 by 30 on UA-cam. I have been putting my knife shop together for a year now and this vid further cemented my confidence in using a 1 by 30 until I can afford a 2 by 72!
Need more of this. I love this product, and more lessons in knife making would be excellent. It is fun to watch the process but always so tempted to try and learn whenever Alec or Will show just how cheap and easy it is to get started. I just wish I had more than an apartment patio to actually work. A garage would be a dream.
PSA: Sonoran ironwood dust is TOXIC TO BREATHE use a respirator!!!!
Too late. I wish I knew this yesterday. : (
All wood is toxic!
@@MrWizards1974 And crap out big, thick logs
@@MrWizards1974 And get various types of lung cancers and respiratory scarring that'll have you struggling to breathe by the time you're 60.
@@SCB1993 Lung disease is honestly a horrible way to go, because you're consciously aware of how much it sucked right until the bitter end, all 2 or so years of it. And this is not even mentioning all the other crap you can get with lung cancer (weak bones, heart problems, etc.).
Long term watcher of the channel here in Australia and its always great, but I gotta say this is a fantastic idea as a product. Will I think you have a real skill in this tutorial style. Well done fellas.
Great idea who ever came up with this product. Thank you for laying out all the tools youll need to get this done right as well.
This has been one of the best videos in a long long time. Instead of all flash it was well paced and informative. Like Alec's videos used to be back in the ol' workshop in Norfolk
Great idea! Nice job Will. You carried the team on your back today!
This was freaking AWESOME to see. Please please please more of this! Great job Will!
outstanding skills there Will, really appreciate presenting to us common folk without all the fancy tools..Great Job.
Finally a video that is for the viewers that are knife makers!
💪🏼👊🏼👊🏼👍🏻
Blue sign parking.
SOLID! Back to the basics. I love it 🙌
Thanks for the video guide, Will! Just ordered my kit 👍
This is absolute genius!!! Pure and simple, I'm sat here waiting for the "build a knife subscription box" I'd sign up for that as quickly as I did the dollor shave club!
This is really awesome! A nice easy first start! I love it and should get alot of ppl into the hobby/ art.
What a great start to knife making. As soon as they are back in stock I’ll be getting a couple. Great channel!
Good video!
Quiet a time ago you inspired a german to start blacksmithing.
Now i'm really into it.
Thanks and keep up the great content.
amazing how alec traveled all the way back from the uk to od that ad
I started out with that same grinder. I still use it for working on handles.
Alec... so great to keep strong partners and building Will up. Well done. And great start, Will! Looking forward to hour channel!
Love the package is KISS
Add options 1-10 with optional bits of mammoth ivory, braided steel, wood options, double sided tape for various sand papers, etc.
This is the simplest DIY knife video I think in existence, and now I know what's going on my birthday or Christmas wish list!
This is the first knife making video that mentions what your hands should actually feel like while grinding. Good looks, Will. Thanks.
Great kit and well done Will, for making this instructional video. 👍😁
Wow this video was perfect timing for me. I got the same exact 1x30 belt sander from harbor freight a couple months ago to help with this resin project I made for my gf for her birthday and I’m asking for a couple of knife kits for Christmas. It’ll be my first time “making” knives and I’m a little nervous. Alec & Will, along with a bunch of other makers in the UA-cam community, have all inspired me to start making and the little bit I have done so far have been so gratifying. I can’t wait to get to the point of having my own forge and making knives from scratch. Thank you guys for this and will I can’t wait to see what you do when you venture off to your own shop. Hope you’ll have your own channel because you’re one of my favorite people to watch.
Bloody Brilliant idea!! Definitely buying some for Christmas gifts!
Great video, all! I just love the videos where you show how simple things can be.
Thank you for giving me the push to get the youth group at church making some knives. This is a great video!!!
Brilliant idea, great timing for Christmas. I think your smashing it. Well done !
You make that look so much easier than it has felt doing stuff like that. Awesome grinding tip.
you should make a BUTTERFLY KNIFE/BALISONG!
Great idea, guys - perfect for the beginner. Brilliant!
This is an awesome intro into knife making. I started with almost all these same tools.
Entrepreneurship-wise, you guys are skyrocketting. Great ideas, great execution, great marketing, great products. I'm betting you're defining a brand new start-up vertical without even realizing it.
I hope more come in stock. Need this in my life
Absolutely brilliant idea.
These are so fun. I had gotten two randomly as a present from man crate and made them both and they came out amazing. I actually turned around and regifted the finished knives and now they get used for gutting game.
Great tutorial! Gotta love that 1x30 grinding sound!
This is incredible will! I have been wanting to get into this so bad and just didn’t really know where to start but this kit idea of yours is brilliant. I only wish I wasn’t living in an apartment complex I’d be going and buying all this stuff today to build my own knife
get some friends together, have them all buy kits and each of you buy some of the tools, maybe one of you has access to a garage.
Excellent music choices, nice and upbeat. Well done Will
Nice Job Will. You really made it look easy.
Thanks Will. This was awesome!
This was AWESOME. Thank you for doing this!!!
That is such a cool idea and product. Will, you're an excellent teacher. Bravo! 👍👍👍
Good vid, explained well and kept simple, good stuff.
Not so fast Brit man! Yall tried tricking us with that tea stuff once, were not falling for it again! Lol
Brilliant idea ....love the way you make it look like a stroll in park to do it right enough 👍👍👍👍👍
What a brilliant idea to get people into it.
Great video Will, hope that there will be more kits.
Not gonna lie that was a pretty slick advertisement coupled with a swell knife making tutorial. You guys are on fire, keep it up.
Yes Very nicely done well I love seeing the enthusiasm the both of you bring to the making world makes me want to make a knife might just go do that
I hope there will be more Build-a-series options in the future, as I am stuck off work with Covid and money will be a little tight for a little while. But once I can, I'll definitely be buying some better belts for my 1x30. The one knife I made, only belts i had were cheap and made the project take for ever. Thank you to Will and Alec for all the awesome content that you do
Finally back to the content I subscribed for.
Love this lesson. Will have to get me one of these kits.
Thanks for that Will Love these how to videos and would Love some more in the future
Will, that was a very nice tutorial, congrats !
Will looking trim my dude! Great walk through and a really cool product too, more of those would be class!
This is such an awesome idea!
I really like the new more instructional format, thanks!
Perfect idea 💡
Thanks
This is an excellent idea. To put the materials in for the pins and scales is just brilliant.ThankQ.TkEZ>UK
Great idea, with a great looking knife!
Great gift idea for the holidays. You should do a Cyber Monday deal on these.
so this was an Add for a alecsteeleco product, with an add for an energy, bar with adds from UA-cam making it a tripple income Video for this company?
I will gladly watch it again because it was so well made, with so many important facts.
If I ever want to start making knives this will be the first go to video i will rewatch just to get me started.
Good job will!
please restock this awesome kit, i love the build a knife box kit concept. i just barely missed out before it was sold out!
Spot on ! Will at his best. Great.
What a friggin awesome idea!
Well done!
This is the best how to make a knife video. For sure
Cool kit. Very nice Will.
I am so tempted. I was looking at getting back into hunting here in Michigan. Decisions, decisions....
Will looks so sad in this thumbnail. Do you need a hug Will?
Get this man a puppy
@@doggopotato8452 i personally think he would be much happier with a doggo-potato
I thought the same thing and I also thought he looked like he lost weight. Hopefully it's just a "getting healthy" thing and not stress from going his own way.
He's sad that he doesn't get to spend 14 episodes handsanding the knife.
Big joke
very cool item and use of easy to get tools many people may already have.
been a fan since 100K love your vids man
great christmas idea!
Awesome kit!
What a great idea 👍🏻
It’ll be perfect for my first hunt next week!
I was just thinking about how you rarely make full tang knives (which I love) so this makes me happy :)
Will you make the grinding look so easy. Great job
Looks nice! Thanks for sharing.
I've done this to a kit without a grinder. Took about 10 hours, not considering glue time. Lots a hand sanding... But it turned out well.
With a solid torch and a belt grinder, I'm sure it could have taken half that time.
How would you like this for Christmas?! Wow, I sure would! Great job, Will. Really clever product offering folks.
Making your 1st knife is an awesome experience!!
Will this video was super! Excellent.
Thanks for that super demonstration of the 1x30" grinder. Have been wondering if i could start with make a knife with ome of those. They are affordable 😁👍
Very nice. You guys are brilliant.. I like the fact that you are making it easy for people to get involved in forging and learning without a large investment. You both deserve the audience you have. One of the best on UA-cam! God Bless you both.
