Making Knives The "Wright" Way - Preparedmind101

[@bashfulbrother]

This is what is missing in most men's lives today. A sense of creativity and value in their work. These guys are true artist's and craftsmen. When a knife leaves that shop it is a work of art and a little piece of everyone that touches it during it's generation goes with it.

[@birdbrainZ]

As an amateur sculptor myself, I respect a craftsman when I see one. Especially when their craft is of such superb quality. R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

[@JesseAdams]

And this is why I can't stop buying LTWK knives. I just need more of them.

[@RedDogBushCraft]

I'm a long time fan of the work done in that shop and the people at LT Wright Handcrafted Knives make true works of art that I love to use. Great video guys.

[@frankwebster8365]

Boy oh Boy, a lot more work than I thought goes into making a knife, and a lot of different machinery a lot of people don't have.

[@DrDennis]

Thanks alot Chris for this video of LT shop. It justifies the cost of a hand made knife better in my head. Great work.

[@paulaandadamnelson2414]

Just watched it for the second time. Blown away again. I have a lot of respect for the craft. Great video, one of the best on PM101 in my view. LT has a great crew. To quote Eddie Murphy: I want the knife, pleeeease. The right people will get that I guess.

[@snoopu7169]

very cool to see why it cost so much for a hand made American made in the USA knife plus we are keeping are hard earn dollar here, glade to see a knife company still exist here in the states. Thanks Chris for sharing you came a long way in a short period of time. oh and I notice you had some hands on experience i was wondering when you were going to make a knife.

[@RH-5482]

Well, I see what my next knife purchase will be... That was a great presentation. Thanks for taking the time to create and post it.

[@MrJohn714]

Great video, a lot of talent displayed there! I've never had the privilege of meting Mr. wright even though I only live maybe 20-30 minutes away. We do have R.W. Wilson in common though as I've known him for a number of years, haven't been touch for a while though. Mr. R. W. Wilson is one of the all time great knife makers and teachers!

[@richschwartz8004]

That was cool guys. Thank you both for going and sharing.

[@galenlong937]

Awesome Chris, That Jessmuk will set the Bushcrafting world on Fire, Very nice design. great video tour of LT's shop and the processes they go through.

[@Wingman115]

Always cool to see how stuff is made.

[@MichaelTravis12c27]

Very cool!! I really enjoy watching this process. There's so much finesse that goes into the making of a good knife. It just amazes me.

[@azhawk516]

Great video Chris. Very cool to see what goes into making these knives. I love my GNS so it was extra neat to see that one made. Can't wait for the Jessuk. I am looking forward to having it on my deer and elk hunts this fall and winter.

[@claudenoto5137]

It really brings the cost into perspective. handmade, every attention to detail for a quality tool.

[@thejuiceweasel]

Great insight in the process. And what beauties those knives are. So deceivingly simple.

[@dalerector9206]

Thanks for sharing the process.

[@RichardCroft]

BEAUTIFUL knife Chris.

[@ando_1250]

I know this video is two years old but, it's super cool. Thanks a lot.

[@sugartreeJ]

What an art that shaping is. LT is a master! Great Video, super interesting!

[@dcrickerson9775]

This was a very interesting and fun video to watch. True craftsman at work here.

[@nobbybravoalpha1870]

Fantastic craftsmanship ..

[@ncwolfwalker]

Thanks for the inside look, great stuff!

[@drcsep]

Outstanding informative video. You pay for quality and perfection. I'm getting one. Gracias amigos.

[@lawdogpiper]

I liked the vid..nice insight..I have a number of LT'S knives excellent tool..P101 thanks for taking the time..

[@one-WildCard]

That was very cool! I can see why custom made knives are so pricey, lots of work! Thanks for the very cool interesting video. Cheers!

[@pandagrylls4021]

Hey PM101 love you channel. After I received my second sch37, my first one broke in half out of the box. I still had problems with the overall shape of the knife. I got an idea to make my own knifes, I already made a few knife out of spring steel and I now like to make my own knifes instead of buying them. Keep up the good work.

[@PilchPlays]

Love these factory tour videos.

[@joesanders6898]

I've always been a bit discouraged at the price of a quality knife. After that video I now understand why they cost as much as they do. About 2/3 of the way through the video I realized I was watching the hands of a master at work. That was a beautiful knife. Maybe one day.......if I'm lucky.

[@droflah76]

Loved this video! Professionals all the way...

[@outdoorclown]

When will they be available again. They look awesome.

[@11808Clover]

Subliminal J's can't wait!

[@ramiromendoza9805]

Good job chris your showing the old school ways nothing but hand made in the usa.

[@shanesims2864]

Good video!! thanks!!

[@MegaTheRatman]

Bought my first LKTW knife for myself for Christmas, a Buschmaster HC and love the design and how tight it is but the pinch grips are nonexistent and the edge was crap, wouldn't even cut paper. Disappointed to say the least, especially after seeing this and that no less than 3 people were responsible for letting it pass through in a totally unacceptable finish but that didn't stop me from ordering a new GNS in 3V with black Micarta scales and I hope it turns out better. This one better be right or I am done with them.

[@paulaandadamnelson2414]

Not the same type of knife but you should check out Cut Brooklyn. Handmade cutlery knife outfit in the heart of Brooklyn NY. The finished products are high dollar kitchen knives but the craft is at the heart of it. Worth a look, great website they have over there. Great video again guys. These guys could do this blindfolded. Hell of a shop.

[@shazzzam79]

What's with the J 7/15/15 at 7:07 ?

[@preparedmind101]

I guess you'll see in two days.

[@jeph4life]

[@jaimeesper]

What was the name of the name of the knife they were making?

[@bill4913]

Chris, Will your website have the "Jessmuk" for the masses or who? Also what will be the going price and when..Thanks

[@cheapmovies25]

A lot of work, looked like a condor at the end

[@lukassvensson2610]

[@seerkone]

[@LeanDreMPeters]

[@MrHodaka69]

[@jan_bsk3087]

I dont know if i overlooked something, but where was the heat threatment?

[@preparedmind101]

Heat Treats get sent out, so nothing to see (unless it's a single custom, in which they have a smaller heat treat oven. I spoke up at that point and said "after heat treat"

[@kendric476]

PREPAREDMIND101 So the famous lt wright heat treat, isn't an lt wright heat treat?

[@shubbagin49]

Is there any connection with A Wright and son Ltd Sheffield UK, ?

[@irondawson]

great thanks

[@redrum6051]

Awesome

[@irondawson]

[@MrSIXGUNZ]

[@DenisHauser]

Great Doku! :-)

[@jonnyontwowheels4312]

Das ist richtig :)

[@Blackriver124]

Hey Chris, I've sent you an email about me winning the BDS sling from the big giveaway, but I have yet to be contacted by them, should I just wait a bit longer or is there something wrong ?

[@preparedmind101]

I've just been away for three days, emailing you now.

[@BillHalliwell]

G'day Chris, I think you've discovered a new film genre. Knife making videos are cool; behind the scenes knife porn! Great to see craftsmen at work; it's hard, precise and dirty but strangely relaxing to watch experts do their thing. Joseph Becker's knife videos are great too. Thanks to you, Will, L.T. and his staff.

[@BrianWest58]

Interesting!

[@unlawfulmuzik]

Cool business

[@Noahbruce911]

How long have you been waiting to use that pun title Chris?

[@preparedmind101]

Actually came up with it halfway through the upload.

[@speedspark1981]

So is that an Equip to Endure shirt Mike is wearing shortly after the 10 min mark? Boy KZbin channels are everywhere.

[@VitalMorgan]

On July 15'th Expect something special guys. just saying , yes chris , seen that lol

[@davezito888]

Wow

[@randyyeager]

"J" 7/15/15 @ 7:07...2 more sleeps!

[@pubplays368]

Easy to do with the right tools. Hence why I respect forgers over knife makers like LT who do it the easy way. Still a great product. Just not my cup of tea.

[@smith951]

applause

[@adamjones9775]

You should have called this the "crap" way of making knives. I know because I speak from experience. I would NEVER order another piece of garbage from L.T Wright knives. I have a GNS Scandi and I call it crap shack because of his logo. He screwed me so much that I don't care about the knife. I throw it into trees and logs. I have had a few people ask me about it when I was in Algonquin Park Ontario Canada and all I could tell them was "its a flea market special"

[@damionlowther78]

Very insightful and mature of you. He hurt your poor little feelings so now you defame his product. Do you need a safe place?

[@RealtreeGrizzlyBear]

First

[@garrylarry4865]

Lol prepared mind was first get rekt skrub

[@RealtreeGrizzlyBear]

OP don't count sausage jockey.
