A large part of justifying a high-end, hand-made knife is knowing the maker. You are a knifemaker with real passion and soul. Great video.

To an outsider looking in at Murray's equipment it may seem as though there is an element of danger, but after 24 years of professional knifemaking you can be assured that Murray takes the safety seriously.

Thank you so much Murray, I really love this art with all my heart since I was a kid, and I've been searching for years the Japanese Bladesmith's methods to enhance the steel atributes in Knife making. For me, to watch your videos is a light in the way because you are willing to explain all these methods from inside as the voice of experience!. Thank you again and I would like to know more about those Rotating giant whetstones and which types and grits are used for Grinding Secondary and primary edges, as well as the techniques used in that part of the process, I hope you can have some time to make a video about it, My best regards for you and your family from Chile!

Well said Murray. People will always look for a way to discredit people who are considered to be the best at what they do. If you look at people who are really passionate about knives and the latest and greatest steels still consider your blades to be some of the best in the world. Keep the art of bladesmithing alive and pass it on, its a dying art.

@TheBoojah11 жыл бұрын
Please elaborate on what makes the alloy in the cable inferior. I mean just because it is rusted and discarded does not mean it is full of impurities and badly made. It could have come from a very high quality cable? Now the quality itself does not mean it is the correct choice of alloy for a knife, of course. Anyway keep the great videos coming, thanks!

@LightBrand3 жыл бұрын
Japan didn't have the best metal ores compare to those found in Europe, which is precisely where the MINDSET of a traditional Japanese bladesmith Carter keeps talking about comes in. It's their technique and precision to bring out the maximum potential out of at the time sub standard metal that resulted in katana and folded steel. Had Japan's been blessed with high quality iron like other countries maybe they wouldn't have gone that route because there won't ever be a need to. But since they did, now using their traditional techniques on now 21st century highest quality steel is what we get out of Carter knives going by his words.
