Sewing Technique with a Swiss Army Knife Reamer - Level 2.0 - 3 Tricks to get a more durable seam!

[@ГрачевСергей-б2г]

all my life I didn’t understand how a sewing machine works. Felix explained in a minute

[@FelixImmler]

Haaa ha haa super. Thanks a lot! 🤣🤣

[@Roman-lu1xn]

Now I see why some sewing needles have the hole near the tip.

[@railerz101]

Really. I always wondered about that.

[@doncarleone973]

Lmao I know! Probably the same for a lot of other people too. 😆

[@SinergiaAlUnisono]

same here !! 😅

[@Cosmo_88]

Felix is more cool than the Swiss Alps . We want that Special Edition Immler Victorinox Knife .

[@FelixImmler]

Haaa ha haa me to!!

[@Schattenhieb]

Mit welchen Tools?

[@iboikarus860]

Ich denke auch, dass Felix ein eigenes Messer mit seinem Namen zusteht. Wo lernt man sonst so viel über diese Messer und wie man sie effizient nutzt und nicht nur in der Vitrine bestaunt?!

[@bruderk4257]

Das wäre echt interessant, welche Funktionen Felix in sein Messer nehmen würde und was man damit dann alles anstellen könnte.

@Alpha Vector , Cool comment .

One of the best demonstrations of a field expedient sewing technique on KZbin. Outstanding.

The love how you explained weaving with the reamer/awl.

[@Houarnev_Cadranier]

Incredible! I have Victorinox for more than 30 years, and it's only today that I learn how to use its sewing needle. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH FELIX

[@FelixImmler]

Ohhh, your comment makes me happy! Thanks a lot!

[@Houarnev_Cadranier]

​@@FelixImmler , Your videos make me happy too. Each time I hear "Hello KZbin" with your little accent, I already know that the next 10 minutes will be the greatest of the day.

Kann unter Umständen sehr nützlich sein. Endlich hab ich kapiert wie das funktioniert. Danke. 👍

[@general5104]

(60 years ago), My Dad came home with a "SEWING Awl". It had straight and slightly curved needles and a bullet shaped clamp cup that held them into the handle...that held a small stainless steel bobbin of really heavy sewing thread. He read the instructions and taught me and Mom to use it. I taught my wife and daughter to use it and now my grand son. It worked just like the way you used the Swiss Army Knife. I hadn't thought of using the hole in the awl for sewing. Thank you for that nice instructional video! YA LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERY DAY ! Dad would say. The day you DON'T learn something, is the day they'll plan on dropping dirt on your coffin! Bill from Tn. 🇺🇸

[@censusgary]

Not only have you taught me how to sew with a Swiss Army Knife’s awl, but you just taught me how a sewing machine works- something I never really understood until now. Thanks, Felix!

[@FelixImmler]

Hallo Gary. Thanks for your kind comment!

[@davidcarroll2035]

This is without a doubt the clearest explanation of sewing with the reamer I’ve ever seen, beautifully illustrated. Thanks for posting this, it also will help me to remember the correct direction for the cutting edge of the reamer by keeping the corkscrew topside right edge, that way the awls automatically facing the correct way. You see? I’ve even managed to make this little bit confusing lol unlike Felix, my defence is I’m only firing on two brain cells

[@FelixImmler]

Hello David. Thank you very much for this wonderful compliment!

I can barely understand some of his words however this gentleman just explained cross stitching in an easier and more understandable way then I have ever seen. That cardboard technique to explain loop stitching was brilliant.

I love you sir. you are the swiss army master. i know my knife so well now thanks to you. Also the hook is amazing i never knew it could do so much. for real the company should hire you to make the videos. People watch this guys videos. he's really talented with the swiss army knife.

[@dommer6977]

Love the information from you. I like the Swiss Army knife has a tooth pick. It’s not just for picking teeth but you can use it instead of the nail to help form the loop. 👍🏻

[@Kenbur]

thank you Felix - this helps me a lot

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks a lot Ken!

[@gantry289]

Wow, some great tips Felix. Now that I know what the hole on the reamer is for I think I might try to make my wife a dress! lol

[@grantdavis5992]

I have used a diamond bit to chamfer the inside of the eye on my sewing awl in order to protect the cordage from damage from the sharp corner. This is how all regular sewing needles, machine or hand, are made. My oldest Victorinox, a Craftsman I bought in 1985, did not have an eye in the punch awl, but all my Champion Plus knives do. I say "all" because I have purchased a number of the Champion Plus knives on ebay (because they were discontinued) and am giving them to my children and grandchildren. The Champion Plus model is preferable to me because it isn't as bulky as the Champ, and I much prefer a totally separate pliers. The Knipex 125mm Cobra is a great and compact companion to my Champion Plus.

[@snooginsguy]

Great explanation of the sewing awl! One observation - the "working end" only needs to be a little longer than the material to sew, as it is a straight line along the seam. The looping side is going to use up more material due to the loops. This could be a critical issue if the thread/ string is in limited supply, and the looping side runs out before the end of the seam.
