    When I got involved with knife making and my own youtube channel I found Sandy’s site very soon. Very soon I also bumbed into this other site Wiltshire Man …and wait a minute…! The same guy !!! making other kind of videos, camping etc. Since then Sandy has filled up my youtube world very well! Thank you Sandy for all these years 💙👍🏻👋🏻🇫🇮

    I've been subscribed to your channel for months now. I'm a keen cyclist and enjoyed your cycling adventures.
    I'm also a keen bushcrafter, but had no idea you made knives! I can see why they are in demand, that is a beauty you created :)

    Craftsmanship at its finest Sandy. Another beautiful knife. I know at the moment you’re not taking orders but I’d love to buy a matching classic and wasp. I keep checking the website but missed out on a few knives now. Keep up the great work.

    • @DDan61
      @DDan61 3 года назад +4

      I did the same thing back in 2016, just remember that it takes 2-3 weeks to make them and when he says "I am gonna start a new batch in a few days" you'll know about when to check the website periodically and you'll get lucky like I did. Good Luck to you Paul!

    I dread to think the cost of these , like a stradivarius violin. Tremendous attention to detail and what a product. Craftsmanship is something society and history used to appreciate. I hope the human aspect of making things which brings a lot of joy to both maker and user is not forgotten in a world of cheap mass produced really average clutter. I know we should all use them but I also hope some will not get battered so we can show that not everything in the uk post millennium was cheap imported junk. Hats offs to a master craftsman.

    That is amazing , you clearly put a lot of work into making it , when I bought my grizzly what I found hard was trying to understand the different hardness’s of the steel etc ,I read about it but am still none the wiser 🤔👍

    • @WiltshireMan
      @WiltshireMan  Год назад

      It's a bit of a science, I have a Rockwell tester here so can test every blade. The Rockwell scale is exponential which means a 59Hrc knife is a lot harder than a 58Hc, in the old days a knife was considered good if it made 55Hrc

  • @seankearney6915
    @seankearney6915 3 года назад

  • @bobhabsolute4995
    @bobhabsolute4995 2 года назад

    There’s the coke bottle handle that is good and then there’s the Jacklore handle and you reach an all other level. It’s the first time I see one of these handle close enough to kind of appreciate it without having hold one and I am blown away. Now I understand why all bushcraft knives are compared to it, the refinement is present in every line. Sir, you have set the reference others only dream of.

  • @simonbragg5888
    @simonbragg5888 3 года назад

    It is so nice to read through all of the comments that are from folk who did not know that that Sandy was such a talented craftsman. Whether you have an interest in Bushcraft and knifemaking or not, as long as you have an interest in hand made things and things "made to last, you will find his Jacklore videos completely fascinating.

      Hi Donna, yes I build knives on a small scale, usually finish around 12 each month and have been doing it for 12 years now so I reckon I've now built around 1728 knives to date :) I think I shall always build them even in my dotage but I am beginning to slow down a bit now.

  • @Bob814u
    @Bob814u 3 года назад +1

    I have a friend that engraves firearms. I can watch him work all day and never want to touch the finished product as I would be afraid to drop it. Watching you make a knife and the care you put into the making of it I would say I wouldn't want to take it into the field, BUT. You make a quality product for working in the field. Quality has a price and if you have to look at the price and wonder if it is worth it you should buy one from the grocery store. If you want a quality product you go to a craftsman. Sandy you are a craftsman. And to think I started watching your videos because you are an Amateur Radio operator. Man of many talents.!!!
