True and legendary artisans! May they and their reputations not be forgotten.

[@SteelCityKnives]

Brilliant comment!!!🤝

[@cmd2four]

While watching this history of Sheffield cutlery, a package arrived. My new A. Wright & Son gentleman's jack, spear point blade, ebony scales. What a wonderful sensation to hold a brilliant piece from that part of the world while learning about the people and places that make it happen. Cheers!

[@SteelCityKnives]

@cmd2four Sounds a brilliant knife. I'm glad you enjoyed the video, mate. Took a while to make this one but one of my most enjoyable. Cheers mate. I enjoy your comments brother 👊

[@bladeinwales]

Great video mate ! You certainly put the work in on this one didn't you ? You are quite right , the stories , traditions and knowledge of these cutlers needs to be kept alive , so they need to be highlighted .......which is where you come in matey !

[@SteelCityKnives]

Thanks, Tony. I love these kind of videos. I dragged my family round Sheffield scouting the place out. They were good sports, bless them. Hope you're doing well mate? See you on the discord. 👊

[@williambonner9522]

Thankyou! Your description of Sheffield knife making and the people that carry on the tradition was great. I totally enjoyed it quite educational quite well done. From the steel city of Pittsburgh pa. I thank you again

[@SteelCityKnives]

Brilliant comment. When I started the channel, I looked to see all the other steel city's around the world. Love it mate 🇺🇸 steel city!!! 🫡 👊

[@davids9549]

Hugely informative Martin - particularly the J Adams input, which was news to me!

[@SteelCityKnives]

@davids9549 sorry for the late reply. This was one if my favourite videos I've done. I loved this one. Cheers for the comment, mate 👊

[@slick_slicers]

Brilliant video, well done! I’ve tried my best too highlight the Sheffield Knife Maker across various KZbin creators, but I’ve lacked the energy to do this sort of deep dive. Keep up the good work!

[@SteelCityKnives]

Cheers, Eric 🙏 You've done more than highlighted, mate. I think I've told you this before, but you got me into Sheffield knives. Hope you're doing well? You sounded like me on the last video. Hands full with the kids (grand kids). Thanks again, Eric 🫡

[@cheatobandito]

Love your history videos sir. Hope you are doing well brother. 🍻

[@SteelCityKnives]

Hey Cheato 👋 Hope you're good brother 👊

[@radar468]

Enjoyed the history, working at 93!

[@SteelCityKnives]

I know, mate. They don't make em like that anymore. He was a great man. Hope you're good, brother! 👊

[@davidkurle5418]

Really enjoyed listening to this while cleaning a couple of my pistols👍Wonderful video, my friend!

[@SteelCityKnives]

I'm glad you liked it, mate 🙏 Cheers, David 🍻

[@gizmocarr3093]

Enjoyed seeing the photos of the historic area you toured in person. I also enjoyed the historic information you provided of the area. Great video thank you for sharing your trip.👍🙂

[@SteelCityKnives]

Cheers, Gizmo. You know it means a lot when I get a comment. I'll keep em coming 🫡 👊

[@dougwatkins5441]

I love the history of Cutlery and this is where it all started. Great video Brother I think we need a second one

[@SteelCityKnives]

Thanks Doug hopefully I'll do some more like this. Cheers mate!

[@drewwhite5601]

Afternoon brother, absolutely loved this one , could have watched for hours, "duck reg" 🤣🤣 was a my favourite classic saying from Trevor you know the story, and I love how the old workshops haven't changed nothing fancy just a place to get the job done , keep up the great work 👊

[@SteelCityKnives]

Thanks, mate 👊 That's story cracks me up. Characters all of em. Cheers Drew

[@ericstarr9399]

Great video! Really interesting information and history! The pictures you showed of Grace Horne's work are absolutely stunning!

[@SteelCityKnives]

She has her own site. I don't think she has sold any knives for a couple of years. But all her works on there. We'll worth a visit. They are like art. Stunning all of them. Cheers Eric 👊 see you on the discord mate

[@rain-bender4712]

The football stadium at the end is Bramall Lane, the home of Sheffield United and you ought to adopt them as your club because their nickname is 'The blades.'

[@SteelCityKnives]

@rain-bender4712 😂😂 Brilliant comment 😂😂 I have a football team already 🦊💙. But I will cheer them on in spirit. Sheffield is a brilliant place. Can't wait to get back. 👊

[@RandysWSG]

Excellent video brother. I love it. I was a but taken back by the A Wright building haha. Great things come in small boxes though.

[@SteelCityKnives]

It's not so much the buildings...its the talent that lies within. Steven Cockers knocking up perfect knives up in a shed at the end of his garden.

[@terrillschneider3778]

How very interesting So far I own an Oak Sheepsfoot Barlow by I-XL and a Stag Bunny Knife by J Rodgers I’m definitely looking for a few other Sheffield made knives I definitely appreciate your cheerleading for your country’s products

[@SteelCityKnives]

Thanks, Terrill. Those knives sound brilliant! I like cheer leading all decent cutlery 😉 👊

[@elanrhys3178]

Finally had a chance to watch this, you did a wonderful job

[@SteelCityKnives]

Thank you, Elando. I'm taking credit for that nickname. 🤣😂🤣

Great video brother!!

Thanks Rich 👊 Hope you're doing good mate?

[@jamesluther3506]

I purchased an Arthur Wright knife about 6 months ago. It is a beautiful Barlow. I have a problem with it. It is very difficult to open and close. I have tried to break it in but have not had success.

[@SteelCityKnives]

James return it, mate. I'm sure whoever you got it from will sort you out. Something like that most definitely. A. Wright is very well known for strong pulls. Not all Sheffield knives have such strong pulls. Let me know how you get on, mate?

[@slick_slicers]

This is the thing that really bothers me about some of the life makers in Sheffield today. They are goaded by a number of KZbin reviewers who equate the strongest pull as the best knife. Most of us really don’t want to break her nails every time we open a pocket knife I think I’ve got this message over with Taylor‘s eyewitness, but nowhere else!

[@drewwhite5601]

Totally agree with you @slick_slicers if you use a pocket knife correctly it doesn't matter if it has no snap at all , we all like to hear the little snap when it opens but it's all got a bit silly now , as with the gaps etc , anyway gonna shut up before I say something to offend someone 🤣👊

[@davidjensen4796]

You said you might be off your head I think you are off your head anyway but I like what you do keep it going and thumbs up five star

[@SteelCityKnives]

🤣😂🤣 I know silly statement really...I think it's clear I'm off my head 🤣😂🤣 Cheers, mate. Appreciate the kind words 🙏 👊

[@davidjensen4796]

@@SteelCityKnives no it's not silly at all I see your passion you keep it going I can see you as one of the best and that's what they don't like and they should be encouraging you keep it going thumbs up

[@SteelCityKnives]

@davidjensen4796 Thanks, mate

[@paullapper8702]

I have 2 Stan Shaw knives

[@SteelCityKnives]

Very jealous. What are they if you don't mind me asking?

[@EnglishTooligan_77]

If you come back to Sheffield, gimme a shout. I can be your Sherpa. 😂

[@SteelCityKnives]

I'll keep that in mind, brother Cheers mate 👊

[@JimGlasgow-e5o]

We hear American u tubers banging on about made in USA But these are real quality . PS Wrights back spring s are too much . Great video well done 👏👏👏

[@SteelCityKnives]

I kinda agree with you on the Wrights. A few of mine have broken in and eased off a bit, though. I love American cutlery, Solingen, and Sheffield. All my favourites. I think Sheffield probably manufactures knives to a more traditional way. But love them all equally 👊 Sorry for the late reply

[@allancrotch2953]

Another great video

[@SteelCityKnives]

Cheers, Allan, mate 🍻

[@georgia_adventurer]

Interesting video…great knife history. Political pressure on the knife industry…regulation that’s not needed

[@SteelCityKnives]

Thank you. Vert true statement. Hope you are getting used to the retirement. A lot of people have retired from our place. When you have a catch-up with them. They say it's a strange feeling. Some of them still get up at the crack of dawn as so used to it. Thank you, Sir 🫡 👊
