Thanks, Dirk, for the opportunity and Big Kudos to Todd Fischer for making two outstanding & spectacular 4" b.l. Archangels. That certainly would be 'the grail' of most collections ... certainly mine. Have a great holiday week 2024/25.
Wow both of those builds are impressive. First with the Giveaway, it is a work of art yet functional and just meant to be used. Just looking at the heft and mass of it just screams hard work. Then take all of that from the first blade and replace the solid Magnacut steel with a stunning one of a kind San Mai Damascus and as Emrile says kicks it up a notch!! You have outdone everyone with this Dirk. Whoever wins will have something special and a link to you forever. I do hope you find that person, hell I hope I am that person. Thanks for sharing!
That are two beautiful knives, really cool. I would never resell such a beauty, customs are special. I collect highend and semicustoms knives somewhere between say 200 and 1000$.
Oh wow😳!!!!! I’m blown away and can’t believe how awesome these both look🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Your San Mai blade looks so good with that black n white CF Unbelievable that one will be a GAW. Hope it goes to someone that will cherish it as much as you do. After getting my first taste of TJ’s work I am in awe of all the work I see from the Fischer’s. I know it’s only a matter of time before I get another one in my collection. Huge congrats to you 🤘🤘😎
Absolutely incredible pieces and so insanely generous of you for the giveaway. My recommendation for the giveaway would be to enter active viewers who have been subscribed for, say, 3 or more years. This would weed out people just trying to get a free knife and allow you to give back to the people who helped build this channel to what it is now.
This beast should be a center piece of a collection imo. I’d have it in my Holmes and haddfield armada front and center. She’s a beauty and would even see carry and use. I’ve NEVER win a lotto or raffle or giveaway for anything knife related so this would be a hell of a cherry pop 🤣.
These are absolutely stunning! Congratulations on all the success and 10k subs! Thats an amazing prize for a viewer/fan whomever the winner is, is gana go into shock when they win lol
Holy crap! That's a hell of a giveaway. Would out class everything i have owned and likely will own. Absolutely awesome. Congrats on 10k. Thanks again hopefully I can be part of the giveaway.
This is one heck of a GAW. My son still talks about those pac men guys you had on the table at BSW. If by some happenstance I get drawn for this, give it to SatuDave please!
@@Mattisfaction thank you sir. I’m glad your son liked the beads at the Yellowday Energy booth. Very cool. And nice gesture to offer this to Satudave if you were to win.
MagnaCut?!? Ooooooffff! Two gems 💎 there!!! Love the 4”!!!! I think it should be your call. You paid for it. Just a suggestion: who has contributed the most for getting your channel to 10k or something like that. This way the GAW doesn’t go to a turd burglar.
Oh my god, that is so beautiful. I’m not gonna lie, if I am fortunate enough to win the only place that Archangel would go is to one of my kids when I die. Best of luck to everyone and again congratulations on not 1 but 2 milestones. 🙏🏻
Wow, just wow! Those two knives are more than great pieces of art! What makes them more is that they are begging to be used daily. It would be an insult to put them up to be safe queens. They need to be used to cut all the things! At first glance or two, I didn't care for the black and white carbon scales, but now I couldn't think of a better set of colors for the san mai damascus blade and it's brother. I also love eggshell texture of the titanium. I'm guessing they weigh around 8.5 ounces?
As a relatively new subscriber (in the last few months), I certainly am not deserving and nor would I expect to win even if I was a long term subscriber, however that doesn’t stop me from being glad to have seen these spectacular knives anyway. What a pair! that san Mai really tops off an already beautiful knife while the Magnacut one, despite its monetary value would be a great user. After collecting a number of what I’d consider mid-high end production knives (mainly CRK and Hinderer, with a lonely Gen 2 Arius and a Shiro F3NS topping off the higher end), I’m trying to get down to less knives but nicer ones. I could imagine having one or two knives at the level of these Archangels, and not really having much want for anything else. I’m sure the winner will be very happy - I know I’d love to find a nicer big flipper to replace my already nice full Ti XM-24 (which has a pretty short cutting edge for such a big knife because of the choil unfortunately).
I honestly don't know if I could carry and use a Todd Fischer custom! It would have to be a safe queen for a very long time! It looks like it just melts into your hand!
Only somewhat recently found your channel. I'm not a huge fan of all your customs, and sometimes I make cute comments about them (sorry). These two knifes tho! Prob some of the coolest customs I've seen! Very nice :)) Whoever wins is going to be ecstatic!
Once again congrats on the 10K. Such a beautiful pair and i believe for all knives it fullfills thier purpose to be used and loved, Mr Fischer has done amazing work on these, truly a craftsman who loves his trade. I carry knives of this size every day such as the Cold Steel 4Max or AD10, but i must say nowhere near as expensive, the San Mai done on the blade is beautiful, and if i might ask, which steels were used to make it as in the core and jacket materials? The Carbon fiber really sets off the blade and comes together beautifully without making it look gaudy, a great balance of materials overall. Both are stunning pieces and i hope whomever wins will run it through its paces as a user and not a safe queen. Love that they are liner locks as well, makes it much easier to use left handed if one is inclined to do so, and the size is perfect as well. Thanks for the great vid and keep making sharp things fun and enjoyable.
Handpicking is the way to go like Ferrari does with their ultra limited hyoercars. They also have to have a specific number and model of their previous cars in order for them to be eligible. I know it's snobbish but even my suggestion is no guarantee. Just a suggestion anyways. Gorgeous knives, i mean wow! Happy New Year!
Both blades are GORGEOUS.
WOW..👊
Thanks, Dirk, for the opportunity and Big Kudos to Todd Fischer for making two outstanding & spectacular 4" b.l. Archangels. That certainly would be 'the grail' of most collections ... certainly mine. Have a great holiday week 2024/25.
That's incredible. So much knife on both of those knives. Thanks for taking the time to show the details.
WOW!!! INCREDIBLE!!! True Grails there!!! Epic Giveaway!!! Lifelong knive's there!!! I'm speechless 😮 #Fischer Friday

Both are hella beautiful!!! ☯️ I hope whoever wins it…uses it!!!
Ooofff. Love the archangel. I had a 3.5 inch with CF scales back in the day, but had to part with it. Congrats on a great set here
Both look amazing! Magnacut is for me the almost perfect steel but that San Mai ended up perfectly matching the carbon finish on the handle.
Good luck they are beautiful thanks Todd Fisher Sr glad I can see you excitement
Wow those blades are both 🔥🔥🔥 The details on the pivot are amazing.
Oh wow, love your damascus piece, those are big and beefy.
Absolutely amazing! That san mai looks soooo good!
Very awesome. Have never handled anything close to this level.
I'm blown away that you are so generous. I agree, whoever gets this knife should be someone who appreciates it. It's an awesome knife.
@@joeyh2565 hence my dilemma of how to do a GAW.
OHhhh there they are !!!
Blown away still 😳
Those are absolutely amazing!! He is at the top of the maker list for grails
@@grimsby4207 completely agree. And relatively reasonable pricing.
Holy cow. That's work of art
Just gorgeous knives
@@Bojo1984 EXACTLY
Both Incredible peices of functional art. One day. Keep up the videos
That are two beautiful knives, really cool.
I would never resell such a beauty, customs are special. I collect highend and semicustoms knives somewhere between say 200 and 1000$.
Wow beautiful pieces. I couldn't even imagine getting to handle one of those, let alone owning one. That san mai is amazing.
Oh wow😳!!!!! I’m blown away and can’t believe how awesome these both look🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Your San Mai blade looks so good with that black n white CF Unbelievable that one will be a GAW.

@@HappyWifeHappyKnife thanks. Great idea.
Crazy grail gaw, thats an heirloom piece right there, especially the san mai
Good luck with GAW!!
Dang! That’s a crazy and generous build for a giveaway!
@@mikepersin6405 yep. I gotta stand out somehow.
Those knives are beasts
Absolute beauty! Crazy to give that away
@@Layzboyedc yep it’s a crazy GAW for sure.
What a amazing pair!
And wild GAW Dirk congrats on the 10K+
what a crown jewel of a piece for one lucky persons collection!!

Geez us that's one heck of a giveaway. Whoever wins that bad boy is gonna be one happy momma jomma. Very nice. 👏 👏 👏

These are absolutely stunning! Congratulations on all the success and 10k subs! Thats an amazing prize for a viewer/fan whomever the winner is, is gana go into shock when they win lol
Incredible piece. Hope you find a deserving owner!
Holy crap! That's a hell of a giveaway. Would out class everything i have owned and likely will own. Absolutely awesome. Congrats on 10k. Thanks again hopefully I can be part of the giveaway.
@@nickpipitone1440 thanks.
Great knife. Can't wait for the giveaway.
Very rad sir! Congratulations on the milestone
@@WilliamKerry79 appreciate it my Friend.
A chance to be blade brothers is an amazing thing your are doing 🤞
Those look super nice. Great work.
Absolutely amazing! Im hoping someday to be able to own one, and only found out about them because of you. Thanks Dirk
@@Obsidian-One my pleasure
Holy moly that’s beautiful. I’ll be trying to snag it
😮🤯👌👏👍 sweet that's coming home to papá😁
Wow, that's a pretty knife!
@@M17ispy agreed
HOLY COW! Todd absolutely nailed those. As a fraternal twin, I approve lol
@@edc4fun oh that’s great. I did not know you were a twin.
Your collection is insane ,all your hellrazors, fischers ,now i see you have stan Wilson nff ,
@@Mrredness thanks. Yep I’ve got a NFF.
Holy crap that's awesome! I think you're crazy, i don't think I've ever seen a giveaway like this, but awesome. Lol
@@stevencler2452 agreed I don’t know any other channel spending their own money like this to GAW.
This is one heck of a GAW. My son still talks about those pac men guys you had on the table at BSW. If by some happenstance I get drawn for this, give it to SatuDave please!

@@mikeyeh7646 i completely agreed and it might be me picking someone. The concern is real about someone flipping this beauty.
And yep MAGNACUT 😉
@ you have to pick wisely 😜😜😄😄
Oh my god, that is so beautiful. I’m not gonna lie, if I am fortunate enough to win the only place that Archangel would go is to one of my kids when I die. Best of luck to everyone and again congratulations on not 1 but 2 milestones. 🙏🏻
Beautiful match set
@@MASHEDMallow11 right almost wrong to break them up.
@DirkWerning it is, but you are breaking the set for the right reason

@@CrowsBladeandWoodworks good guess. Magnacut is 8.6oz and San Mai comes in at 9.0oz
@@DirkWerningIt's a tribute to your video skills that I was able to come so close to the weight.
Both knives are great but that San Mai is gorgeous. Like a tuxedo. Definitely not for trading or sale.
@@737driver8 agreed.
Definitely a couple gorgeous knives! Would be an absolute honor to own something like that. You’re a good dude Dirk, craziest 10k giveaway!
@@Drewzilla666 yep it’s a CRAZY giveaway for sure.
I need to try and stand out from the other channels by getting WILD

@@adamzappia2213 thanks appreciate the feedback. I sort of miss the XM-24 non flipper I used to own.
@ I didn’t think there was a non flipper 24. I’ve got a non flipper XM-18 Bowie which is pretty nice though.
I honestly don't know if I could carry and use a Todd Fischer custom!
It would have to be a safe queen for a very long time!
It looks like it just melts into your hand!
@@Layzboyedc but it’s built to USE, yes it fits the hand GREAT.
Wow is ALL THAT I CAN SAY!!!!!!!!!!
