Love the idea of showcasing craftsmen and artisans as well as cooks. The art of creating things has been rapidly disappearing for decades now and is worse than it’s ever been.

@@EatingWithRobertIf you’re still there it would be awesome to highlight some of the footwear craftsmanship. There’s a pretty rich history of shoemaking and still multiple great smaller companies making quality shoes and boots. Noble & Wylie, Goral, Charles Brooks, Guat, Secret Shoebox to name a few 👀 👀
as an artist myself, I really hope there is a greater push to preserve these important works in our countires. We need better appreciation of hand-done labor and where our goods come from. lovely video, he seems like a wonderful fellow, and those scissors sound like a dream. hopefully someday i can get myself a good pair. Heirloom quality stuff is becoming harder and harder to find
commenting to say i love the inclusion of craftspeople in this channel. food is a craft as much as putter-togethering. hope this side of things continues.
My mom live in England many years ago and brought a pair of scissors like that and i still have them. They've been sharpened many times. They are a nice weight, not light like the new ones. Craftsmanship is very important. Makers need to be celebrated more.
This is amazing, you’ve been my favourite new American food content creator. You show case the people and food of places so well and give a good sense of the spirit/culture behind the restaurants. Also being from the UK it’s crazy your at some place in Sheffield that makes scissors😂
I'll never cease to be amazed at the people you find, Robert. Cooks, chefs, craftspeople and more, and they're all so interesting and genuine, as are the stories they tell and that you, in turn, tell us.
I wish I had money to buy his scissors for my relative. They love sewing and general textile craft, they would love a pair of good scissors. The curse of the mass production is that we’re not only conditioned to expect low prices but also our salaries are negotiated around those low prices.
I know. I checked our their website and saw the beautiful stork embroidery scissors but unfortunately I'm not in the position where I can spend that kind of money on scissors I'd use infrequently
The products are designed to fail so you have to keep buying more. The initial low price factors on the fact that you have to keep buying more and more, that's why things that last cost more
This is a great start of being versatile from creators of food and cultures to discovering artisans, craftspeople and more. This craftsman gives me Robin Williams vibe and his work is clean.
I love craftspeople who learned their trade from people who learned their trade from people who learned their trade…from the people who invented the trade.
One of my prized possessions is a mother-of-pearl pocket knife owned by my great-grandfather, engraved silver plate with his initials and the date 1912. It was sold in the US, but the blades are labelled with a Sheffield maker. So very sharp 112 years after he bought it.
Your love for all forms of craftsmanship is so wonderful Thank you so much for giving a platform to individuals who pour so much of themselves into their trade
Hey I am from the UK and used to live in Sheffield. So glad to see you in the north and hope you have enjoyed the people, culture and food. I am not sure if you are still there but I would love to recommend Cornerstone at Dyson Place, for the best food and atmosphere. It is a mix of Italian and Yorkshire cooking - inspired by both of the chefs parents. Couldn’t recommend enough. Also make sure to have a Bakewell pudding before you leave! I love your videos and can’t wait to see what you do next!
Anyone who does any kind of crafting knows theres a massive difference between a $20 pair of titanium Fiskar scissors and a $100 pair of these handmade beauties. And it's nothing like a luxury brand car compared to an average car either...Those are just a waste of money. A $200k+ Lamborghini, Ferrari, McLaren, or even an Audi, Mercedes or BMW will constantly be in the shop after 20k miles. And an old $20k Ford Focus or Toyota Corolla will still be driving today with 500k+ miles and rarely needs more than an oil change.
Literally just commented on one of your videos the other day saying love from the UK…. Now I see that you are/were here?! Hope to see some more UK content man and hope you enjoy your stay
@@EatingWithRobert Sheffield people are the best (biased as dragged up here too), I'm excited to see you exploring my local spots man! Amazing interviews and video editing as always
Ernest Wright is the company that he works with I believe. They have a variety of different scissors, I can attest to their quality - I live in Sheffield, we have a pair in my house from about 40 years ago still going strong. Google 'Ernest Wright UK' for their own site - looking like the 6 inch general purpose ones on this video.
I thought he said putter as in golf, so I was waiting for him to start talking par, birdies n eagles. LOL! 😅 Love the individual/one off food establishments + now these old style n traditional expertise. 👌
Hey man! What you doing in Sheffield!? As someone from the Sheffield (UK) I've seen loads of comments from people saying 'oh I walk past there all the time' it's crazy to write this myself.... Have a great trip man, if you want any recommended spots write back! :)
Made in England meant "it will last a lifetime". I still have a pair of scissors made in Sheffield. In perfect condition. My grandmother gave them to me. I'm 68. My sons will use them after they realize that the Chinese junk they buy is useless. Regards from Argentina.
Your video is awesome, I am a shears person, I am also a Master Barber..I love your style, do you make the shears, (scissors) is what I am looking for..
Scissors are super cool tbh, nowhere in my little brain do I think I ever would have had the idea to stick two knives together and make that into something useful
If you’re ever in St. Paul, MN, please visit West Indies Soul Food on University and Victoria. I used to work there and Sharon’s food’s authentic and delicious, as well as being a very big and interesting personality! It was my first time being the only white person at a job, and it was a great experience gaining perspective and appreciation for the local community and black and trini culture.
I have precisely one pair of hand-fitted, sorry, hand-puttered-togethered scissors, and they are the most precise scissors I own. Even the fancy laser-cut sheet metal shears are not as precise or smooth.

For sure. I couldn’t really highlight Sheffield without discussing the history of craftsman there.
Yea I wonder why

Machinery just took over
As a non native English speaker, „putter togetherer“ is such an amazing expression to me.☺️
The channel is called Eating With Robert. Go on, Rob, eat the scissors.
This was a really cool look at a niche industry!
The 'I am' at the end of every sentence is so Sheffield I love it
I wish the world was still like this and everything was still made with this level of care and precision.
As a fine scissor and shear sharpener for the last 20 years. I see what you see and feel what you feel. Pretty cool superpower.
This is a great present idea for anyone who loves sewing, crafts etc

Try William whiteley as an alternative, also great quality Sheffield scissors

We need to see more last traditional crafting. It's not just food but nostalgia
What a beautiful thing to see and hear someone talk about their craft ❤
The desire to give everything up - my job, life, relationships - to move over to the UK and sleep on the floor as this mans apprentice
Passed through your channel today absolutely love the content
Love this channel the concept is brilliant looking for legends.
Well I need some of those scissors now
Very humble lad
love traditional handmade scissors ❤❤❤
Yay, more UK stuff!
The best Putter-together-er
I used to walk past this place everyday on the way to work :)
This is the kind of content that makes RUclips worth perusing. ❤
Dig the foray into craftsmanship, it really isn't much of a jump from passionate cooks to dedicated makers. Keep up distributing the knowledge!
That’s a reasonable production goal.
Quality > quantity.

Hoping that we will get a full length video up about this!
he managed to gatekeep scissor repairs, that's actually funny
Where can I buy a pair of homie’s scissors?
Ernest Wright is the company that he works with I believe.

Ernest Wright is the brand. I don’t think I can put links in comments, but they’ve got a website with that name
@@robertbach3592 thanks, gonna check that out!
You can buy it up your arse
Wait... is this the place that put itself on kickstarter and the owner self deleted... cos they owe me a pair of scissors ✂️
I thought he said putter as in golf, so I was waiting for him to start talking par, birdies n eagles. LOL! 😅
Love the individual/one off food establishments + now these old style n traditional expertise. 👌
£98 is a pretty reasonable price for these
Theres a shoet doc by maybe great big story and its about the 2 biys that trained this guy. Good watch
i really love this
Let me know when you come to Sweden.

Ahh, scissors 🤗 Our fondest treasure hunt that never ends, even when we put them where they belong 😮💨
Craftsmanship. 🇬🇧 be proud

Love this.

You need to see David smith in Torquay master glass artist and gilder
Humble🤘🏻
What’s the name of his business???
Ernest Wright Ltd (the business he works for I believe)
@@Willdaly96 thank you 🙏🏻
Scissors are super cool tbh, nowhere in my little brain do I think I ever would have had the idea to stick two knives together and make that into something useful
is the long form of this posted yet? can't find it on ur channel, eager to learn
I hope he has hair salons as his customer they could probably use the hand made stuff
nice
Long format for this one brother.. It's not about the views, it's for the preservation.
Who tf got money for artisinal scissors
Their 6.5” general purpose scissors are only £66, if you’re someone who uses scissors all day then why wouldn’t you get some nice ones?
Plenty of people. Thousands of people spend hundreds of pounds on wine and cognac.

Good life long scissors not the junk plastic ones thease and the Japanese are immortal so to speak
does he make scissors for cutting hair? or what? how many different types of scissors are there?
I have precisely one pair of hand-fitted, sorry, hand-puttered-togethered scissors, and they are the most precise scissors I own. Even the fancy laser-cut sheet metal shears are not as precise or smooth.
LEAVE NO CRUMBS
So cool
❤❤❤
Have they got a website or online store. My mum loves to sew and these scissors will be an amazing gift. Please help.
Watch the video, google the name, profit
@@kenn3250It's not in the video. That's why I asked.
@@cheesesauce1560 about 1/3rd into the video it says his name, job title and the company name
It's Ernest Wright Ltd
Confuse by the junk drawer of various types of screws. I’m guessing those are to hold the shop and equipment together.
❤
Don't care how good they are not pay £100 for sisscors lol
