Were you cringing as much as I was during the bend test?!
Congrats on passing your test. As much as i was squinting, cringing, and puckered during the bend test, i bet no one was as much as you were. Congrats again for passing. Im sure you could pass the abs masters with your skills. Just have to put the time in now that you have the journeyman
@@jacksmith2315 not a Jouneyman yet! I still need to make 5 presentation knives to be judged by a panel of masters in June
Dayum. Not only did the blade not crack or break, it dang near came back to true.
To answer the question you ask. No. Not worried a bit. You were way too happy in the intro for the test to have been a failure.
Yes! Congratulations on passing. We never doubted you.
That test was never wracking for sure. I'm amazed you didn't have a heart attack
Congratulations! That's an amazing job. That 90° bend part always makes me nervous. Well done sir.
Thanks for watching, Chris!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!! We all knew you were going to nail it! What a great group to get to spend the day with! Well done.
Thanks! It was a really fun day with great people!
Congratulations man!! Happy with ya! Keep well
Thanks, Johan!
Congradulations! I'm excited to see the next portion with your presentation oriented knives.
Thanks, Sean! I’m already working on the first presentation knife.
Congratulations on passing! You have been doing amazing work and we are all so excited to see what you come up with next!
Thanks, Jake!
Congratulations! A long time coming! Way to start off 2022!

Thanks, Bob!
Looks like a fantastic time. Grats on passing the test..
It was a blast learning from these folks! Thanks for watching!
Congratulations sir
Thanks, Jerry!
that tip about curving it before forging the bevels. brilliant!
Thanks, Adam! I’m glad the tip helped you. 👍
I may just be just some random person on the internet to you, but I have nearly all your videos and I am so happy for you! You are a super-skilled smith with an awesome attitude.
I was cautiously optimistic during the bend test, that 90 degrees is flippin crazy!
Thanks for your support! The test was a bit stressful but very rewarding!
Congrats man!!!! I've been kinda binge watching your videos and your style of knife making is definitely top shelf
Thanks for checking out the video library. New build video coming tomorrow you won’t want to miss!

That was awesome! Congratulations! That knife bend was intense.
Thanks! It sure was!
Congratulations!

Congratulations, it's good to see that you have lots of Smith's that you can check out in your local area. Living in the Yukon I'm much more isolated, as a fellow Canadian I'm stoked for you!
Thanks, Justin!

Thanks!
Que coisa boa, todo o processo de preparação pra o JS. Parabéns.
Obrigada!
Congratulations and well done! The bend always makes me clench, hehe. I'm excited to see what you come up with for the presentation!!
Thanks, Hannah! I’m already working on the presentation knives so you’ll see those builds too!
Congratulations Dennis I didn't doubt you for a second. But I was still cringing when you did the bend test. As always well done and thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Stephen!

Nicely done on the performance portion. The bend test was nerve racking.
It sure was nerve racking! I’m glad it’s over. Thanks for watching!
Awesome, congratulations!
Thanks, Erin!
Congratulations! Thanks for sharing the rigorous testing requirements with us.
Thanks for watching!
Congratulations! That’s nerve racking.
It sure was! Thanks for watching, Roger!
That was awesome Denis!!!!
And congratulations!!!!🤠👍Kelly has some killer stuff and her and Vinnie are the best peeps!!!🇺🇸
It was a really fun day for sure!
Have been looking forward to this.
Thanks for watching, Steven!
Congrats bro
Thanks, Don!
Well done, all respect
Thanks!
I am constantly amazed by the bladesmithers.
Here we saw an apprentice pass his journeyman test and the master smith then asks the newly made journeyman "hey, show us how you make that cool new stuff". And after that's done, they all make some cool Damascus together.
The amount of info and technique sharing is just amazing.
It’s so true! It’s the best community of people I’ve ever been a part of! Everyone wants to give back and help the next guy. Thanks for watching!
Congrats!
Thanks!
Congratulations! Your knives are beautiful!
Thanks!
great job! congrats!
Thanks!
Congratulations again Denis and thank you for the advice last night. Once things defrost a bit, we are going to give it another go.
Thanks! Any time you need help, let me know. 👍
@@TyrellKnifeworks and the same to you, sir.
Congratulations Sir great job I am sure you were nervous as hell but you did great work 👍👏
Actually the rope and chop seemed to stress me out more. The bend, I was a bit more relaxed. 🤷♂️. Thanks for watching!
Congratulations. Sharing knowledge is an important part of knife making.
Thanks, it was nice to get this rating last month.
Passing that test like a Boss 😉 Well f@cking done brother! Can't wait to follow you through the rest!!!
Thanks! It was stressful but I’m happy it’s over. 😜
Great accomplishment! Good stuff!
Thanks, Bill!
Congratulations and well done.
Thanks, Christian!
@@TyrellKnifeworks Watching your work,I look forward to seeing more and adding some of your knives to my collection.
Congrats and good luck man.
Thanks, Chad! I’m already working on my 5 knives. 🤞
@@TyrellKnifeworks you got it man!
Congrats, nice job!!!! Hope all is well, take it easy...
Thanks, Dave!
Congrats! Love that the "new guy" got to teach the Masters some tricks!
Thanks, Chris! Yeah I was pretty stoked!
These testing videos always stress me out haha! Congrats!!
Yeah, imagine doing them to your own knife! 😜. Thanks!
Congrats again Denis!!
Thanks, Dan!
HOLY! My jaw hurts from clenching so hard the whole time you were bending to the 90! far out! congratulations!
Thanks! It was stressful for sure!
Congratulations
Thank you!
Right on! That is so awesome!! Congratulations Denis!!🔥⚒💪🏻 got me thinking I should get into the abs.
Definitely! At the very least to get the clock started! Thanks!
Congratulations, Denis! It's well deserved.
Thanks for watching, brother!
My heart was pumping for you.
Thanks, Andrew!
Never had a doubt! 👍 😃
Thanks, James!
I'm glad you passed the test! OMG! That bend test got me nervous! 😅
Congratulations!
Thanks, William!
Considering I watched the test knife, and was amazed at its performance, I was sort of chill about the tests, but I still got anxious at the bending, but was sure it would be fine, Tyrell knives are always fine. As a conclusion, congratulations on becoming a journeyman smith, you earned it. 👍👍👍 👏👏👏
Not quite a JS yet, there’s still the 5 knives to be judged by a panel of masters in June. Thanks though!
@@TyrellKnifeworks So as good as done. Most of the people that follow your channel know you'll pass no problem.
congratulations
Thanks!
Well done dude.... I can't imagine what it must be like to hang on the end of that bar.... Well done... It will be a moment you will never forget.... Can't wait to see what you get upto next...
Thanks, Dan! It was a bit stressful, but a fun day!
No doubts!
Thanks, Rodger!
Well done!👍🏼. So far, only things I've succeeded in heat treating is my hot cut hardy made from sucker rod and a chisel and punch made from coil spring.
Checkout the heat treating video that’s part of my Beginner Series playlist, that will help you. Thanks for watching, Bill!
Awesome! Congratulations, an amazing accomplishment, indeed. Next stop: Master!
I’m not a Journeyman yet. I still need to make 5 knives to be judged by a panel of master smiths in June. Maybe I’ll try for master by 2025. Thanks for watching!
Congrats!!!! Welcome
Thanks for watching!
Congrats man! :D
Thanks for watching!
Congratulations with passing the test! I'm sure you will pass the rest with flying colors. Your copper pattern-welded, black-washed knives are the most beautiful I've ever seen. I'm personally mostly into folding knives, since I have no use for (and can't legally carry) a fixed-blade knife in my day-to-day time, but I really enjoy your channel and your work. The copper/black-washed combination is perfect; a little bit edgy (pun intended), extremely classy, without going overboard on either parameter.
Thanks, Kasper! I appreciate you watching!
Spoiler alert!!!
With your attention to detail, I knew you'd pass this part with flying colors. And we ALL know that your presentation blade will be awe inspiring.
Thanks! The presentation knives will be quite plain though. It’s all about fit and finish so nothing fancy. When I test for Master, then I’ll get fancy! 👍
@@TyrellKnifeworks Still, fit and finish are what separates good bladesmiths from great bladesmiths. I have a couple Todd Begg, and Pat Crawford knives that aren't fancy ( couldn't afford the fancy ones, heh ) but the fit and finish on them are superb. Hopefully one day I'll be able to snag one of your copper damascus blades.
That is awesome man...congratulations on your Journeyman Smith rating..watching your knife bend and not break I reassuring...that's the only that scares me..lol...great job man
I don't have the Journeyman rating quite yet. There's still 5 knives I must build and present to a panel of master smiths at Blade show in June. Thanks for watching, Jermoy!
Congratz on passing the performance portion, good luck on the presentation portion
Thanks! I’ll be working on the first knife today! 👍
Congratulations on passing and to show them something they wanted to learn
Thanks, Richard!
Congrats
Thank you!
Congratulations Dennis. Great job and a real nail biter. I got my last coat of refractory on my forge today and will cure it this week. Looking forward to seeing what I can do.
Good luck and have fun!
Very cool congrats!
Thanks, Ed!
congrats!
Thanks, Sasha!
Congrats on the test.
Thanks! It was stressful but fun!
Congratulations…. And now for the beauty contest prep!!!
Yup, that prep has already started! Thanks!
Hello! Congratulation! It is nerve-wrecking to see a blade bend like that :-) That feeling to pass that test and also have a blade that is fairly straight is really cool! All the best and good luck!!
Thank you!
