  • In this episode of DtC the boys are surprised by the subversion of their (admittedly very low) expectations. Guest starring a huge bottle of Jack Daniels.
    Happy New Year, lads! And lassies, if any.
    I'd like to thank each and every one of you who take the time to watch DtC, and am very grateful to everyone who takes more time out of their day to comment. In a perfect world there would be endless time for either Tom or Ob to engage with everyone, but alas the world is far from perfect.
    FAQ & A
    Q: I have a burning question about something in the video! What should I do?!
    A: An email sent directly to Tom is the best way to get your question answered, because while he most definitely reads each and every one of your comments, he hasn't quite gotten the hang of replying to them in the comment section, and is not likely to in the foreseeable future. Or ever.
    You can also call him if you prefer (856-866-8733) between the hours of 9 AM and 4 PM, EST. This may be slightly more difficult because he's forever running around away from his desk, but it's worth a shot.
    Q: I have a amusing anecdote, scathing criticism, or heartfelt compliment that I deeply need to express and I require / demand / long for a personalized response! What should I do?!
    A: See "A" above.
    Tom's email is: herrwittmann@gmail.com

    I have spoke to you many times in person and you are still quick-wit and sharp. Ignore the haters!

    On values: Years ago at a show I overheard one collector tell his friend: "I finally broke down and bought a chained SS dagger from Wittmann. I'll never get my money back, but I've always wanted one." The friend asked "What did you pay?". The response: "$1,500". I think that he'll get his money back, don't you, Tom?

    You sir are not senile at all. Keep up the good work and keep inspiring us younger (60 years old) collectors. God bless and happy New Year!

    Tom, without you, the hobby/ profession of collecting daggers would be in a world of hurt. Senile? Hardly!

    Wow, those are some beautiful examples. The SS With tag, the Röhm and final dagger (though a little fancy for my taste, was a pleasure to see). Damascus, gold plate, filigree and the grain on that handle is fantastic. Thank you for sharing the view from your work bench and your insights.

    Tom, never worry about wasting time. Every second is fascinating and entertaining and all the items are eye candy.

    Before I watch the rest of this video I just want to say I watched your video with Alex and your great tour of your collectors room and I thought your collection and the way you have it displayed is just magnificent even with the Russian there . Not losing a mental step I can see. So now back to your unboxing video

    You got to love Tom’s facial expression when he opens that tagged SS dagger. (Even Ov can’t hold back his excitement!). I thought for sure he’d need a drink, especially after just pulling that incredible Uboat Pennant! What a way to end 2022. Thank You Mr. Whitman!
