I would actually appreciate acknowledging the frustrations of the builds while you encounter them. It would feel very human and be super relatable for lots of our own personal projects, consider filming those moments. Happy and fun content feels much more genuine when its contrasted with the struggle that it took to get there.

The thing that stands out for both of you is the degree to which you strive for perfection in your work...attention to detail, dismissal of any result that is short of the goal, including the willingness to completely restart a project in order to make it right. I really appreciate that. There's value in that, which I think is largely forgotten today. Don't change.

Would love to see Alec teach Will some more black smithing by doing some decorative work kind of like how you made the bed shortly after getting to the states. I am sure one of you could use a nice decorative piece and could make something fancy and complex. Maybe a gate, a desk, or a lamp? Would be cool to see more stuff that isn't weapons (as much as I enjoy weapons). You could also start armor smithing by making a shield or family crest for your mantle or something. That would be neat too!

We watch for the journey, the mistakes you overcome, and the challenges you solve through. We wouldn't watch you as much if you were a perfect craftsmen just showing the steps through. We watch for your progression and understanding. You are human and capable of mistakes, and that makes you more relatable and entertaining because we see the challenge and respect you for overcoming. With love, your Viewers.

Daaaaang, Will is only a year and a half older than me! I'm just barely dipping my toes into knife making, using one of my neighbor's tools (my steel) so knowing the two of you aren't that much older than me is fascinating, uplifting, and frustrating, because you're both so talented and dedicated, and yet here I am actively not working on my knife. I started it before Corona hit the US, so late February early March, which, living in Utah, means it was cold outside when I started, and my neighbor's workshop is NOT heated lol I've yet to go back over to finish hand sanding and filing, after which we're going to heat treat and temper then finish the handle. Once it's done, I'm going to make a leather sheath and I'm really excited, but I just haven't worked up the drive to just go finish the hand sanding. Will, I have a new appreciation for all the hand sanding you had to do on the Zweihander (I'm only fourth gen German and never learned the language, my apologies for the spelling as I'm fairly certain it's wrong lol) thank you both for the inspiration you've given me!

Take it from someone over 60, you have a wonderful life ahead of you and you are in a position where you can afford to make mistakes. That means this is the time in life to be bold and take chances. Alec has certainly done that in incredible ways. Moving to the USA is one of them. Starting and running a business besides KZbin is another. You are both living what us older folks call the American Dream!

The basic difference between oil & water is cooling rate for the quench. I believe oil cools much slower than water, which means the resulting steel is less brittle from the quench. I suppose you'd pick also based on steel - some steels might bend or crack in a water quench but be fine in an oil quench.

You guys really are incredibly inspiring, myself being at a pretty confused point in life and business, feeling a bit aimless, the way you guys run your operation really fills me with ideas and shows what's possible. Alec, in your quest to keep your content fresh and excitingly, I bet you could introduce some business-focused content that would be very well received!

Except when you try to buy a car, or hit your head, or buy clothes, or shoes, or sit in a chair with your legs on the chair, or doing anything at the too low benches everywhere, or looking like a freak in photos next to your 5' lady friend. I wouldn't want to be shorter, but 6'4" has its issues.

@@court2379 All very true, especially the "car" thing. So often, an otherwise lovely car, is way too low in headroom or has no legroom, front or rear. Strangely enough, one car I can drive comfortably, is a Mini although nobody can sit behind me.😂 Remember Hightower in the Police Academy film, ripping out the back seat?🤣

That was pretty funny. Out of all things that Alec has forged, I think the making of various and specialized blacksmithing tongs has to be some of the best educational videos. Too, you seem to be very confident and enjoy the process. Maybe because of it's practical uses and appreciation of value that a quality hand made tool has..

Dude i'm so hyped to see you make armor! I've learned some bits of the craft with a very talented armourer, and even tho you will need *lots* of different shapes for your anvils and a lot of different tools, learning to move steel in 3 dimensions is a blast! But of course you will need to know very precisely the shapes of armors from different periods and locations, so yeah your first attempts won't be very accurate (and surely not very functionnal, being either misshaped or too heavy)

You all would be a riot to hang with - so the Bear Grylls (Alec) vs Les Stroud (Will) would be a fantastic series. For maximum fun it might be cool to throw in the twist of scenarios that might require some form of skill crafted solutions. For example, make your own survival kits with tools each person has made then test who wins each challenge using your tools. Bush crafting, shelter building, fishing, fire making etc. This is more of an "Off the Ranch" kind of theme but maybe you can have a "Forge Ahead" mini series where you use the things you make in practical applications. Just brain dumping - it all sounds fun though, love seeing your energy on camera despite all the hard work it is for your production!

Do a tour! Rent venues, charge people who want to set up booths at the event, charge admission, offer short classes, give demonstrations, sell pieces, have competitions, etc. I believe in larger areas it would at least pay for itself, plus would get your name out to the uninformed.

Ok for reals... You guys should have a competition with each other where you both make your own stylized personal set of survival tools and then see who can implement theirs with the most ease and proficiency. Items you could make: spile, flint striker, multi purpose knife, fish hooks, camp axe etc... Let us vote (your subscribers/viewers) at the end of the competition for who we think was firstly the best survival tool maker and secondly the best survival tool user. This would be soo entertaining!

Certified Mexican here, fajitas or "fajitas de pollo" are usually chicken cutted in stripes and then grilled with various vegetables, Tacos are made usually with corn tortillas filled with pork of beef meat sauce other stuff and then just FOLDED in half (hard tortilla tacos are not a thing in here), and finally burrito is made with wheat flour tortilla filled with chicken or another kind of meat and then ROLLED and close into their known shape.

This has been a wondrful post. It gives so much insight into both of you and brings you so much closer to your friends on the tube. It is right that you both keep your private lives private. and the part that relates to the workshop is public. In the question of on and off screen personal, Yes, Alec does present a more manic personality. And speaks a bit too fast. But when he is working, you can see the calmess and concentration he devotes to the project. You guys make a wonderful team. Yes, owing a small business is difficult. You do have to turn this into an income producing venture as well as demonstrating the art of making knives, swords and other interesting objects. I have noticed that several other "Forging" people had ceased to be on the tube - most notably the fellow who bought your English hammer. Mr. Pilcher. Good luck to both of you. Better yet, good management and forge a great future for your enterprise.
