  • I picked up a new luxury tool. Something that'll get used on every hand tool project. And it wasn't THAT much. Initial unboxing had me excited. It's not perfect but it does offer abilities others lack. Made in the US by a great boutique tool maker.
    Note: I paid full price for this. I wasn't asked to make this video. I get nothing for it's creation. No kickback if you buy one yourself. It's just a cool tool and I thought I'd share.

    Nope, not shelling out 125 Bucks on a small piece of steel. I can file that up in an hour!

    The daily driver marking knife has its place on the workbench because it's always being used. That making knife is something that fits naturally in the hand, registers against your palm and fingers, and just feels like an extension of your body.

    The Lake Erie stuff is nice, their prices reflect that too! $124.99 for that marking knife? That's not luxury, that's stupidity! Do your students a favor and tell em to go get a Stanley like Paul Sellers recommends!

      So you’re telling me I’m stupid? I don’t deserve even the semblance of an exquisite tool? That a hundred bucks for a lifetime of return is too much? That I should forgo having an opinion and only regurgitate your idols mantra? Damn dude, if ya think so little of my worth why watch and comment?

    Those marking knives you don't use - a simple fix is to attach a wood handle to them with thru pins to hold everything in place (besides epoxy).
    Simple fix and makes them useful (again).

    Based on your last video on this subject, I bought a thick blade Narex. I'm much happier with this design than any other marking knife.

    Not a big project (but some fun) to get some flat stock and make a version of this that has the tweaks to the design you mention and have exactly what you want.

    9:25 did not know that... Thanks for showing! (I have missed the video where you showed that - or forgot).
    Congrats on the new tool! Nice things make our live more enjoyable. And I don't think it's a luxury tool if you use it for basically all joinery. Enjoy it!

    Lake Erie Toolworks is going to sell a lot of these methinks. I think I'll bevel the edges of my Japanese one which is of similar design.

      Nice piece of steel with how many hours of labor invested.... things that look simple are often the hardest to make. How much is your time and expertise worth in what you do? I know my local mechanic charges more than this per hour.

      Luthier products from StewMac are aimed at pros and people who want the best. People complain about their prices, too. Hobbyists like me don't need this level of quality, but the video showed me how bad my current marking knife is. :) Time to upgrade, if only a little.

      Matt Estlea marking knives are 70-95£ so I would say yours you bought is about spot on for a premium marking knife. Now I could never spend that, but it's not my profession or serious hobby (yet)
