10 things I can't live without. It's clearly more than ten but that's okay I think. No offense taken, right? Right. Hello everyone today we are looking at some cool things that I have. Do I love them? Do I use them? Yes. Take a gander at my Rolex Explorer 114270, my Leica M4-P, my Timex Flix, my Opinel, my 5 year journal, my messy apartment...etc.
Can I interest you in a hot bowl of following ME and The Snail in other places??

The Iron Snail is a men’s fashion vlog starring a young man named Michael and featuring a snail no bigger than a quarter. The two are set on taking over the world of fashion by creating a clothing line to end all clothing lines. Until then, we’re here to tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about the best clothing out there, from the highest quality raw denim jeans to the warmest jacket to the sturdiest boots…the Iron Snail has got you covered. (written by Taylor, though Michael is sometimes known to talk about himself in the third person… xoxo) - Навчання та стиль

@@TheIronSnailis there a list of Victoria and Alberta Best designed items in history, you got me curious and upon googling I can't find it.
hello everyone, don’t worry my apartment is clean now
That James brand knife is real nice but I understand NYC has strict knife laws. You might want to check on those if you haven't already.
I’m glad its clean
How’s the poison ivy?
Good job on the clean up! Now you can go outside😂
Congratulations on the 5 years with Taylor! 🎉
This sort of video is why I’m subbed to you. That’s a great idea for a journal, I will have to use that! Glad to see the two of uses overcoming the distance!
Congrats to 5 years! Looking forward to the release of the jacket. You’re vibe always brings joy to my day!
SO ENTERTAINING, always amazes me like your editing makes a video so "simple" into a must watch
I've got a Bleu de Chauffe canvas tote. I get so many compliments on it and the size/lack of pockets means it gets a lot of use.
Great video! That Bleu de Chauffe bag looks so good. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Happy 5 years. The 5 year diary is such a cool idea. Cheers
The " I like small rectangular things that fit in my hands" is so relatable
Michael, coming from an enthusiastic knife guy: PLEASE DO NOT BUY THE HELLGAP!! The James Brand makes very mediocre-at-best products in general, but the Hellgap is especially bad. They make sure good looking stuff, but that's about it :)
An esee instead maybe.
@@kasper6873 I think for the aesthetics and functionality that he's looking for, something like Daily Customs or a Chris Reeve Backpacker
spyderco shaman is a pretty stellar one
@@Get_Splooshed it is for sure, I just don't think a Shaman is super Michael Kristy style
Go for the Bradford Guardian 3! An amazing knife, small enough to Cary around everywhere and cuts apples like you wouldn’t even believe
Congrats on the anniversary!
I've had a carter and an opinel for years now, love them!
First, congratulations on 5 years with Taylor! Second, or maybe third, I am ordering that fork knife and spoon set, that's amazing, The number I didn't pick last time, I was just looking at that bag company, Bleu de Chauffe, put it off as I have a lot of bags, but now, somehow, I'm on their site again.
Man. I’m such a fan of your video and the development of each section. Keep up the outstanding work!
Thank you for mentioning that opinel spoon upgrade. I've been looking for a light and small spoon solution for camping for ages and since I bring the opinel anyways I'll give that a shot
Dude, Stirling is the best! I live about an hour from their brick and mortar location! You can go and check out their whole production and the owners are soo nice. Never thought I’d see a local Arkansas company on the snail! Totally cool and love your work man!!
I loved the video but I came here to comment that the ad reads were the most entertaining I've seen in a while and I actually didn't skip ahead for once because of that. Thanks for keeping it fun and interesting!
Look at all that wall organization. SOMEONE is getting efficient (old vlog callback). Another excellent video!
HOW ARE YOU SO CREATIVE WITH YOUR VIDEOS, I LOVE IT
Ahhh well I’ve spent the last day binge watching your channel. One of the UA-cam channels I wish had infinite videos. Can’t rush perfection I guess - cheers!
Your videos are so well put together man.
Happy anniversary to my favorite metal slug🎉🎉🎉. Btw, I’ve been watching your videos for around 5 years as well. So maybe it’s our anniversary as well, swoon😊. Anyways have fun in Denmark duder.
I am much older than you, but I truly love your content, your sense of humor and above all being genuine and not fake nor pretentious.
Keep it up Michael 👍
It’s not entirely genuine, UA-camrs receive free products not out of the kindness of a company’s heart (such a thing doesn’t really exist lol). They get them in the hopes that the UA-camr will feel obligated to give the brand a shoutout and that the product will show up in the background of or be worn in videos. These are subtle forms of advertising. Since this guy is a businessman, he probably knows this, so his compliments are less about gratitude and more about giving the donors what they want.
@@protocetid I understand, I'm not that naive. What I am saying I feel he-as a person- is a genuine guy, down to earth. For instance his mate on theo and Harris is full of himself and it's obvious.
@@mbessio He could be, I only watched like 3 of his videos. But don't forget how many famous people have an on camera persona that is dissimilar their true personality, their true selves are revealed when met in person, by inside sources or in scandals. Never meet your heroes is a saying for a reason, celebrity worship is silly.
Love your videos!!
Your videos are so entertaining. Keep it up man. Safe travels to Europe.
Great video as always! I thought fountain pens would be right up your street, but I saw that yellow rollerball at 2:39 ! A Lamy Safari is a great starting point but if you want to keep things local, Noodlers does interesting ink and Esterbrook, originally from New Jersey, has been brought back to life recently
Started with knives, my first hobby dive lol great vid and happy anniversary!
Dude you're awesome and the editing is probably the top .1% on youtube. Its crazy I even had a dream that I found your place/appartment complex and I was just standing outside looking in while you were recording a video. It was wild and hella random but I guess your videos made that much of an impact on me to dream about it. lol
Quality video 👌🏽👌🏽
Thanks for the thoughts on midori! I went with the Travelers Notebook system and like it a lot. You need a Kaweco Sport Pen Togo with that notebook!
Greetings from Poland. Love your videos!
Switched from Opinel to an Antonini Old Bear, never looked back, just superior where it matter, the lock, ,never even thought this would close on my hand, but Opinel, always, through multiple examples, would work itself loose on even the lightest work.
My wallet is a Vulkit, it looks like leather, feels like leather, hell it even smells like leather, but it's thinner, and has 2 quick access slots for cards or folded cash, and all of it has wireless protection for your cash cards.
Got a Casio G-Shock too, but one of the ones where the characters are white, while the background is black, as I find that far easier to read, and is easier to read in dark lighting, even without activating the back light.
I just have a small set of steel cutlery from IKEA (Also some steel straws and chopsticks), I feel and experience has shown me, that having cutlery that is purpose built is better than trying to make other tools work as cutlery, funnily enough they are the best cutlery I have, even though I got it all from IKEA, apart from kitchen knives, which were Aldi / Lidl, and my steak knives which are Lagioule.
I’ve got that same Return of the Jedi glass! One day I’ll complete my set of those and the Empire glasses.
Love your overshirt in this video. Interested to know where you got it! Love the essentials/EDC
Postman bag goes hard. Might have to snag one up😅
Oh this is awesome!! Thanks you for the shout mention! It’s an honor to be included! (Me: Bronson Leatherworks)
I hope you enjoy your knife journey!
I'm right there with you on the Opinel! I live in France, and these things are available everywhere: supermarkets, tobacco shops, garden shops, sporting good stores...and yeah, they run like 10€. They even have rounded-tip knives for kids. The steel keeps an edge for a super long time. The museum is about an hour from my house, and I'm planning to visit it this weekend. Enjoy your time in Denmark!!
love the OP
How did I never know you had your own channel! First time viewing. Subbed. Going to buy an Opinel. 😎👍🏼
Love Stirling. I just started using their shaving cream. They have some inspired smells. I don’t know what on Earth inspired the “Ben Franklin” scent but surely something did, because it is crazy. Not necessarily crazy good, not crazy bad, just crazy. It’s an interesting experience.
Visit Brund when you’re in CPH. Lots of denim and really nice clothes. Big recommendation!
holy shit, yeah that french bag is stunning. I absolutely love how refined but rough it is.
aagh, alas, no silver hardware! as much as I love brass as a metal, for personal fashion I try to stick to silver metals.
Fun items! This was a blast to watch. I know what you mean about the Sigma 24-70. That thing has been around the world with me at this point.
I KNEW I RECOGNISED YA. Theo & Harris the totally unbiased rapport of vintage watches
I just fucking love your videos mate. congrats on 5 years !
Just watched the denim video, excited to see you are getting in to knives. If you ever want to know more about them I'd be happy to help. Been in the industry for many years. Cheers.🤙
I too have an opinion knife. Great quality at a great price.
Yeah I'm almost 4 years old, but congrats with Taylor!
Congrats on the 5 year anniversary, maybe it's time to propose lol.
Congratulations to you two! ❤
I bought two Leica M4P's in 1981after my first year as a photojournalist. Used them forever! I think I paid $525 for each new body.
look up Holtz Leather Co for wallets! I have had one of their card holders for like two years, and I love it!
What type of TV is that? It’s super cool!
love the jacket in the video; if you don't mind sharing, what is the brand and name of the jacket, and where could i get one?
I love Denmark lol while you're there you should take the train to Malmo and Lund, no more than 45 min away and you get to see a bit of Sweden! Safe travels bro
Best item in this video: decorative wooden screen-like thing behind the bed. What is that and where can I get one?
Just saw another guy with a Serif. This merits a subscription
i got a wallet from popov leather i had it for about a year now and i love it and the patina looks great
Absolutely no choice but to stan
Nothing like a nice slim leather wallet 👌
5 years?! Propose already! 😊
whats the wool jacket your wearing? :)
Congrats on 5 years. Time to do a Work watch excursion videos from Denmark and showcase all the Scandy watch makers.....
This Makes The Hood Go Crazy
I thought Viberg 145 got discontinued. Im looking foword to see your take on them. That chair is fier you have there
Hey Michael - What is the overshirt you are wearing in this video?
That is so cool, that you work in the watch industry! And I say this, because I am totally blind I have no vision whatsoever. I have been blind for the last seven years and I always enjoyed wearing a nice watch but now my issue is they do have watches for the blind, but They are a very, very poor quality. It would be nice if one of the manufactures would try to solve this issue it should be waterproof. It should have a quality leather band and it must talk of course. They do make the talking watch is an analog and digital, so this would be interesting if you could try to tackle this issue. Thank you once again.
The Timex Iron Man would be a perfect platform. Also, the G-Shock would be a great platform. Both of them have analog and digital platforms. That would be perfect. This would be a great starting point.
Love the bag recommendations! Honestly, if you have a Patreon, I’d subscribe for more content
Hey Michael, Thanks for your interesting content. The spelling of your French postman bag was not obvious for me to find in your write up. How is it spelled exactly? Thanks so much.
G shock 5600. Nice , Just got one in black and gold. It's rad. I had to give my gold databank to fauna at Babscon because we where fighting some demonic forces on Saturday night. Hey isn't that the bag from the wagon wheel music video.
I really like the contrast between your more movie-like intros and these ones where you jump right into it
Letsgooo
Great video, but we need to find you a new knife when you’re ready. 🍻
Ayy a lefty we out here
"Because... last time I checked... this isn't MKBHD." HAHAHA Nice.
As a knife person who recently became a fan I suggest you buy a Chris Reeves Sebenza 21 or 31
So you ARE the guy from Theo and Harris!!!
What model is your Explorer? Looking to get one myself and am thinking 114270...
Omg! it's a commercial with 47k followers 😂😂
"My first favorite thing is this knife from The James Brand... to be honest I don't know that much about knives"
Checks out.
Found a little tune for you--maybe it you're heard it?
"I'm living in the material world
Living in the material world
can't say what I'm doing here
But I hope to see much clearer
After living in the material world
I got born into the material world
Getting worn out in the material world
Use my body like a car
Taking me both near and far
Met my friends all in the material world
Met them all there in the material world
John and Paul here in the material world
Though we started out quite poor
We got 'Richie' on a tour
Got caught up in the material world
From the Spiritual Sky
Such sweet memories have I
To the Spiritual Sky
How I pray
Yes I pray
That I won't get lost
Or go astray
As I'm fated for the material world
Get frustrated in the material world
Senses never gratified
Only swelling like a tide
That could drown me in the
Material world
From the Spiritual Sky
Such sweet memories have I
To the Spiritual Sky
How I pray
Yes I pray
That I won't get lost
Or go astray
While I'm living in the material world
Not much 'giving' in the material world
Got a lot of work to do
Try to get a message through
And get back out of this material world
I'm living in the material world
Living in the material world
I hope to get out of this place
By the LORD SRI KRSNA'S GRACE
My salvation from the material world
Big Ending"
10:11 the hole you use in the left strip is lower than the right one, it drives me crazy, for your information :)
Aaaaaah I'm gonna consooooom
What app are you using to draw on the iPad?
Yo, what's the shirt you're wearing? It looks super nice. It wasn't in the Carrot link.
I was just debating on buying the Opinel picknick set so now I kinda have to right?
For what it’s worth,the Opinel n8 carbon blade only costs 8 euros in France.😉
Don’t get too “into” knife steel would be my advice. I thought I needed high class knife steel. “Good” knife steel tends to be hard to sharpen and not worth the price or effort. Something you can sharpen easily is better.
Edit: Like the Opinel. Or a Victorinox. The latest, greatest knife steel tends to be more brittle, hard to sharpen and doesn’t always have the same corrosion resistance. Don’t get me wrong. I still have some modern knives with flashy steel but it in no way makes the knife more usable or dictates what I have in my pocket (today, a Vicorinox Rambler on my car keys. So small it’s barely there but does most things I need).
Knife steel is a huge rabbit hole. There’s the blade material itself, the heat treat on the steel, and then the type of grind on the blade in conjunction with the actual edge angle. When it comes down to it, I completely agree that the flashy steels in a lot of high end modern knives are cool and can definitely boost performance, I have found that ease of maintenance has become the most important aspect of a knife steel for me.
No one loves this e channel more than me (and Squarespace).
Do you develop film for the Leica?
your format works so well with tik tok
You shoot film? Do you post your pics somewhere?
What jacket are you wearing in this video? Just watched your jacket collection vid, but don't think it was included there 😓
Who makes your grey overshirt please?
just curious what happened to the explorer when you jumped in the water?
Strange, I was watching Theo and Harris and I could’ve swore you said you were married. Enjoy Denmark. We were stationed at the embassy there for three years.
I’ve never heard anyone say museum like that before.
Laughing at this because i use very similar items. For knife i opted for the french douk douk instead of the opinel and camera is a fujica 801. Also boots.
