Kentucky Knife Maker - Ed Wallace

[@ArtemiaSalina]

I hope shop teachers get to hear the genuine gratitude in this man's voice to the teacher who not only showed him the way to a career but also to something that he can be passionate about. Not nearly enough of us can make a living doing something we truly enjoy and take enough pride in to put our names on it. That shop teacher can rightfully be proud.

[@davidendres7808]

I would love to have the opportunity to talk to you you are a legend

[@BETAjourneys]

Can you make wood carving knives?

[@htcjon27]

Lovely work

[@gchsdrumline7187]

ever use the elk burrs for buckles

[@Darthbelal]

Take a knife like the one featured and use it at the table to cut your steaks, chops, vegetables and it'll outperform ANY table knife. I have a semi-custom drop point knife I use for that purpose. If the knife feels good in your hand and it has a good edge on it, why not get the most use out of it?

[@entrepreneurhomeboy]

Excellent video. I hope this drives the point home, concerning folks that buy cheap knives from China, then try to justify them & compare them to a knife you can pass down a generation or two.

[@MrSuperSmeagol]

do you sell knives on ebay

[@MrSuperSmeagol]

do you sell knives on the internet

[@FamasFTW98]

Very nice knives

[@stevenrose5831]

i been looking for a real thin blade skinning knife i guess you would say. Something to breast out geese and ducks. I find the thinner the blade, the easier it is. I need something that is a short blade as well. Can you do something for me or do you make these knifes? I would love to get one from you. Just name your price

[@kiekert2007]

great video.

[@KowboyUSA]

We had a high school shop teacher that let those of us who wanted to build a hunting knife. Could you imagine that happening today? Building a knife at school. Not going to happen.

[@sbjennings99]

need to forge them.. if you do not forge them... you must leave them glass hard... do not temper.... but you all need to get real real real honest real fast.... you are far more important than you know.... best to, at minimum, die forge your knives.... other ways you do not gain the true bennefit of the fine steel... said steel... and your representation.. and it's harmonic stability is more important than you know. if it's s-60V or ats 34 or any other quasi super steel... you can make a knife out of it without forging...but you need to harden it.. and leave it glass hard... it will be fragile, and dificult to sharpen.. but it will at least hold an edge. forging the blade prior to grinding collapses the crystaline microstructure of the steel, making it denser than the unforged or rolled bar... the rolling process removes would be voids in a pour that was never a bloom... but the rolling and subsequent treatments are not designed to produce a knife edge microstructure that will take and hold an edge as a "good and sharp" knife must.... they are only designed to make a consistent void free bar that can be used for many applications with further work. Forge that super steel.. and you will actually get the benefit... you wont feel like 200 bucks for a knife is proper compensation if you hand forge and go the distance on every angle to make an heirloom grade knife... i know... but guess what... you are taking the wage and honor of a noble trade.. .very much the same as a doctor, a hair dressor, or a local gunsmith... .. charging more than the community can afford, or falsifying the value of your input from any angle will do far far far more damage than you know...from angles you dint know existed. die forging properly done can produce more consistent and better results than hand forging, though not as desirable to some collectors... but re-finding your integrity and the honor of all whom loved and admired your work... will be far more than worth the effort... and you can die forge prior to grinding with a hydraulic press... without losing more than a few minutes of your time per knife. good luck to you, and all the rest of my kindred spirits out there.... many of us were trained to trust in simple stock removal.. and the people who trained us were themselves trained to value it... but you know enough to know better... if you didn't yesterday... you do now. if you want to charge a quarter million dollars for a world class upland bird gun or safari rifle cased in exibition grade wallnut and covered in gold and silver to commemorate some grand event or worthwhile observation... or ten thousand dollars for the epitome of wisdom in the perfect cutting edge... that's fine... there is a place for it... and what it takes to do the best of the best genuinely is so much that the only way you could possibly keep the knowledge alive would be if someone were willing to pay that kind of price for it. but.... if you are only trying to make a premium grade product, marketing yourself as making a premium grade product... and selling it at a premium rate.... you need to be every ounce as respectful of the topic... or...... you may provide just enough disrespect for the community necessary to enable someone like bill clinton to pass a race based real estate con to commit the biggest emezzlement scam in history while ensuring you do not talk of willfully dropping housing rental rates by passing a section 8 legislated reduction guaranteed to fail and make it seem like his other embezzlement was appropriate... or worse.... what came after that..... what came after?... or in the middle of?... the same example bill clinton, and his associates around the world, falsified the arc of the covenant in the name of tieng all the economies together to prevent war.... and you were no longer able to charge a reasonable rate for your honest work as you were made to compete with currency abuse and legislative monopolization of industry and many many millions of lives and families were destroyed and made beholden to saying the currency abuse instead of the honest work of good people and knowledge of tool and die... is what made anything possible. after that... obama empowering theft and sabotaging the medical community and all other industry farther while taking credit for being representative of the good guy... now trump scuttling any talks of responsiby weaning off of the abuse by abruptly shocking our allies in the name of taking credit.... quit whoring your sons and daughters you are important... i love you... i do not want, and cannot afford, to lose you..... pass it on please.
