I love how he estimates jail time to go along with each knife
The knife at 13:34 is a French Laguiole. Those go from 60$ up to 150+
so glad (selfishly) I'm apart of an exclusive 421 thousand something string club viewing this man. Followed you ever since I saw your AK-47 guitar and in that time I've watched every video, with my dad, religiously everytime a video comes out, having little competitions to see who saw it first. Strange that a man in America can bring together everyone all over the world. Just what the world needs right now.
Love your videos, love your TV shows, I love your style, I love you man.
"People say new York isn't friendly, but I said I love you to a grown man and he said it back" - John Diresta.
Hah thank you brother !!!
Thank you brother sorry I didn't see this sooner!!
I'm glad you finally decided to show us DiResta your knives
I got to meet one of NYC's finest last year when he spied the clip of my SOG (Twitch XL) as I exited a Duane Reade . I didn't get to eat dirt or spend time in jail, but he did have an awful lot of questions about a knife that was perfectly legal, even in NYC. My favorite was: "Who carries a knife like that?" My answer was: "everyone in Texas." I don't think he was amused, but his partner laughed.
Anton Olsen yes they seem very out of touch with the average working man...thank you !
jimmydiresta i tuck my knives when i see em coming
By the way, the blade at around 12:20, you said it was by "Rostfrei" Rostfrei is stainless in German :)
I used to do the same mistake too!
Notrollhere as in Rust Free :)
+Notrollhere actually rost fei means rust free because stainless steal is called edelstahl
Rakadis по
Rostfreier Stahl or Edelstahl are synonyms in German. In Swedish we say Rostfritt stål. So Rakadis is correct...
I'm from Iran i love your work and so I'm a lineman., your clips are My favorite show thank you jimmy
you're the man Jimmy! I was an interior trim carpenter for 6 years, i built built in bookcases, staircases, tricked out ceilings, ect. it was the most rewarding job because i could get a sense of accomplishment and pride in my work. I've been into building things since i can remember. you have some great tips and youre truly a master craftsman. the best part is you make a living doing what you love. keep making great videos. thanks for sharing.
Nice collection.. It would be cool if you made a knife sharpening tutorial.
Jonathan Milbury Ditto that thought. And thanks for the video, and congrats on 200k. You're on the way to a cool million....
Jonathan Milbury I use a Lansky Standard kit lansky.com/index.php/products/std-3-stone-system/ for the kitchen blades - with a little patience you can get a "horror movie" edge ("sharp" does not do it justice!) There are plenty of videos out there to show you how.
Jonathan Milbury What? The hundred or more various knife sharpening videos that are already available on youtube aren't enough? You've got to be kidding.
Jonathan Milbury Queen
Small enough to fit my pocket... big enough to get arrested. Hahahahaha
I recently stumbled upon one of your videos and then ran a viewing marathon watching MANY more. You are truly a VERY talented craftsman and with that said I'm now a new subscriber looking forward to all of your upcoming projects!
+J.R. Romero Thank you !!!!!!!
+jimmydiresta Could you try to make a balisong (Butterfly Knife) Now that would go good with your collection
Me aswel started watching yesterday have watched 10 in a row
Same here. I just started following links until I saw the "Which blade I" video, and then I watched the "Dagger from File" video - I'm having a marathon! LOL
I literally started the same way.. I sort of just came upon him. Now I binge watch him on my late nights. I'm hoping to start my own projects soon.
I have been making, modifying, and restoring stuff for a living for more than 50 years. I always learn something valuable and interesting from your videos. I am impressed and have great respect for the depth and breadth of your knowledge and skills. Many thanks for sharing your work.
Jimmy, the Leatherman jams when the tools are loose. The pliers will get under them and jam tight. If you find which side is loose you can use gravity to keep the tools closed so the pliers close after them. Or you can get a couple of safety torx and tighten the tools and you won't have that problem anymore. If this isn't clear, I can take some pics to show you what I mean.
You have a sick collection out there :) I have 3 folding knives and I am thinking about some multitool :)
Trolskyyyy!!!!!!!
:)
Thank you for watching brother! You are an inspiration!
I really liked how casually you mentioned your brother returning from his honeymoon in Italy with 25 switchblades to give away as if that's a normal outcome for honeymoons.
You live in a pretty cool world Jimmy.
Just drank about a 1/4 o a handle watching your videos. I love them, keep them coming!
My dad's first pocket knife was a Case. He got it when he was 10 years old, 1908. It's still around, blades sharpened on Arizona granite boulders. When I got a knife in 1953, it was a Sears pocket knife. Dad called it a case knife. I told him it was a Sears knife, but his father, who was a Captain in the Union Army taught him to call any folding knife a "case" knife because it folded into its own case.
Apparently "Case" knife came along and took advantage of the name so when a cowboy or ranch hand went to buy a case knife, he got himself a genuine Case knife. ----- just a little trivia. Stay tuned, I'm full of it. Just ask my ex-wife. Uh, on second thought, don't say anything to her!!!
Wait 1908?
I like that you have some cheap but good knives as well as used knives. I'm the same way however I never see anyone else like that on RUclips. I'm now subscribed thanks.
i LOVE that little Italian switchblade story....on EVERY single one of my many trips to Italy , i came back with knives .....i am of Italian ancestry as well....WHY do we love knives SOO much????....my folder collection is closing in on 300
Thank you , Thank you , Thank you for everything you showed to us , and teach us and all the practical rich knowledge you provide for us, we are all very much fortunate to find you in you tube.
Almost 6 years later, I'd like to see the collection now.
great collection.. you just got another subscriber..
Thank you !!

I loved YR collection Mr Diresta,I used to have same Passion for knife's but then i stop d collecting.But after watching you video i started again.
Thanks for letting us see you in slow motion. Love your work and your knife collection.Thanks for sharing a little piece of your world, love this site.
Jimmy, in regard to the "Ian" knife (12:51), I have a very slender pen knife (pen clip) with identical locking mechanism, also with "IAN" stamped on the base of the blade, "Made in Brazil" on the othar side. Embossed on the blade is "Executive Edge" with the registered trademark icon. Love the thing because so unique and handy, always available in shirt breast pocket. Got it decades ago when you could still find knife stores in shopping malls. Tried to find more on internet a few years back, learned the outfit that made them went broke, but supposedly a few show up on Ebay every now & then. Wish I had also bought a model like yours, looks much sturdier.
That's is right. It is made by a Brazilian knife maker who invented that pen style pocket knife. At first he was making knives at his backyard.. literally and then, the high quality on his work turned him into a specialist. Nowadays those knives are expensive, even in Brazil and some of them are made of a custom metal mix he invented. Such a nice thing! I've met the man. Simple guy with a lot of talent. He gave me one piece with my name on it. Nice gift!!
The correct name is LAN

Damn dude, the way you describe New York cops, you should move here to texas XD
I could spend hours watching all videos you make please keep them coming
Wow! Amazing collection. Thanks for sharing.
USA, you have the right to bear arms, but not knives? Signed: Confused Canadian.
Depends on where you are. New York is one of the worst. Certain states and cities are much more relaxed, but there's typically very little logic applied to knife laws in general. You can get a permit to carry a firearm, but certain knives are still not allowed. As if any knife you could possibly have is gonna do more damage than a gun.
There are places in the U.S. where you can carry any kind of gun, but not some kinds of knives. Why? Probably because the knife industry doen't have the kind of lobbying muscle that the gun industry has.
not always, in the "bumfuck nowhere" regions of the US noone cares. in some rural counties I've carried a machete in public and noone bats an eye.
reaper1874 , I think when they wrote the constitution "the right to bear arms" had the English meaning (only nobility had the right to bear arms, all others, commoners didn't have that right for fear of arousals). in America now arms mean rifles for the colonials to hunt in my opinion
It's mostly do to people getting stabbed but all lot of states allow automatics with a couple exceptions
Congrats on 200K Jimmy! Anyone stupid enough to attempt an assault on the shop is in for a surprise...
Enjoyed this video. Saw a few I had back in the 60’s and 70’s. Fun memories.
Jimmy, your videos encouraged me to finally buy my own center lathe, after I worked with one for some time and I always wanted to have one at my workshop at home.
Thank you for that :)
No balisongs :{ I always keep one in my drawer
***** More commonly known as butterfly knives
Ace Coyote yeah I was waiting for a balisong to appear LOL
***** www.google.com.ph/search?q=balisong&es_sm=93&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=x7xsVfTwBNP48QWrkoPAAw&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAQ&biw=1366&bih=663#imgrc=3mnpiV73nAT0EM%253A%3B7L5BHQtaCsGtOM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fstatic.giantbomb.com%252Fuploads%252Fscale_small%252F1%252F13313%252F1167724-balisong.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.giantbomb.com%252Fbalisong%252F3055-2898%252F%3B320%3B255
Ace Coyote i was upset to see no balisongs or Kershaw blades
Balisongs are illegal in most of America
rostfrei isnt a company just means the steel is stainless
I saw/heard that also at 12:12...Kissing Crane were made in Germany...hard to find the 13 inchers nowadays...good video too...
Don't have a Rolex, but do have an IWC dive watch and a Ball dress watch. I wear one of them every day. I stopped carrying the Buck 110 my Dad gave me in 1977, the blade is getting narrow. I bought myself a Grayman Dua. Great knife.
Preach on brother man.
Enjoyed looking at and hearing about you collection. I have watched many of your videos and have enjoyed them, I'm 73 and jjust started my first knife collection. I am having a good time collecting and watching knife vids. Keep up the good work. Thank you again. Stan The Man
Dude, you have more knives than I have dollars. lol
You should make a video showing how to covert to automatic blade
I was so affixed on that blue handle switchblade as soon as it switched to that gag knife I loled so hard, completely threw me off!! 😂😂 good one man! Nice collection!
Live a mile and a half from William Scagels old place. He'd have liked your work I bet. Love hearing the old timers stories of him. My old Doc had a dozen of his knives given to him. He did just what you've done, started innovating from scratch!
Fruitport, Mi.
NICE collection!! Really in NY you cant even carry a knife.. that sux!!!
Ramone Talarico wow that sux! idk what the law is for PA but i carry a i think 8-9 inch like rambo knife haha i never got bothered by the cops.
Ramone Talarico unfortunately, that's the way America is going...sad really
Anna Nicole? Did you mean Nicole Brown Simpson? Anna Nicole Smith Overdosed. Anyway, I was going to say, I have one of the original SOG prototypes that they made for the SEALs. A guy from SEAL team 4 gave it to me when I was a medic in the Navy years ago. I super glued a gash on his palm from a Canadian Mist bottle. (Just ask and I'll tell you the whole story) He had (training) the next day and didn't want to go to the base ER and get an "alcohol related incident" He gave me the SOG knife and a Luminox watch. I tried to refuse, but he was like, "sh*t Doc, I'll just tell em' I lost it and they will issue me another."
cbond99 Tell us the whole story?
Cool collection! And like that there is a little story with each knife, very cool!!!
Outstanding! A little something for everyone. I have also purchased knives from Smoky Mountain Knife Works. Great prices!
hey jimmy you call some knifes "rostfrei" that's not the name or company who made it. it is german and actually means it's stainless steel.
greetings from germany and keep up that good work. i really like your videos
Fantarochen 152 rostfrei = rustfree
"Rostfrei" is German for stainless (literally free from rust). 12:14 14:30
Many also say "inox" which is short for "inoxydable" in French , which also means "stainless steel", or "non-oxidizing", there is at least 13% chromium in the steel preventing iron from reacting with oxygen in the air , normally producing Iron OXide, or more commonly known as rust, so "in-oxidible", like "in-destructible", means it won't oxidize.
Excellent video Great collection Thanks for sharing ATB Nobby in the UK
Nice collection Jimmy!
did it cost 100-120 dollars ?
What's the guy's last name again?
***** LOL
😂
+kociusz A bit pretentious, isn't it?
+David W do you know what pretentious means?
Benji Steward-Shirley You can use presumptuous if you want. Either is fine.
I'm sure someone else has already mentioned it, but "Rostfrei" means just "stainless" in German...
Congrats on some really nice models there in your collection! Just loved the giant Kris.
have a wonderful weekend also. you truly are the Man ! hope to see some more of your awesome stuff !
"and I even engraved my name on the back of it." Haha, what don't you put your name on?
Awesome Budget Knife Collection 👍👍👍
Nice collection Jim. Love knives and love to see collections. Thanks for sharing!
I met this guy on a flight
bobi rust when?
on a flight to Kentucky from Arizona
you complimented my wooden watch
bobi rust i would love to see a vid or a pic of that
i found myself in a similar situation
+Nick Hinson I put two and three together.
12.25 Anna Nicole Smith wasn't stabbed to death, she died from a drug overdose
I think he was thinking of OJ Simpson...
Guys, Read the description.
Miles Durham
probably Nicole Brown, dunno. Just a guess.
Kay
I also have a box full of knives. Mostly inexpensive, but the one that ranks above all of them is a $35 Kershaw. I carry it everywhere. It is still razor sharp 5 years later. Highly recommend one
can't. stop. watching.
3:00 where I can order this knife?
It's not a weapon it's a tool
I love spyderco but I l did laugh at the bottle opener switch blade. Nice video
200k subscribers. As I look at the current subscription rate, it’s nearing 2mil!!!!! Damn well earned Jimmy!
So if you disappear for about a week, now we know where you went.
I wish someone would give ME a Rolex.
If you only knew what I had to go through to get this as a consolation prize. You'd pass on it. #longstory
jimmydiresta Awww man, now I really want to know! : )
jimmydiresta me too tell us the story
johnnytastetest why though
Finally got around to watching this video. I enjoy getting to know more of the personality of Jimmy. Cool vid.
Knife nut here... it is refreshing as fuck to see a video of a guy who USES his god damned knives! Knock offs included or not, really nice to see some WORKING knives! Poking around the knife forums and youtube channels I often times feel like I am the only one actually using my knives.
screw knife laws. here in MN I can own switchblades, butterfly knives, and OTFs, but the second I walk off my property, you'll get arrested for having a weapon.
Really ?I edc a butterfly knife here in mn
Balis are legal to carry here man. (I’m in MN as well) I carry my BM 51 Morpho all the time
How can one get a DiResta Original? Your handcrafted items are works or art and very collectable...
fuckk YOU man!
Fuck you
you truly are living the life
I don't know if you still look these comments but that all stainless knife that you didn't know a lot about and thought that it was IAN actually is a Brazilian made foldable from LAN Canivetes. They made those for a few decades now. They are still on the market and make a few great ones, including some small versions of the one you show that are great! They have a web site if you want to know more. You make some great videos, thanks a lot!!!!!!
i'm swiss and i'm a little bit disappointed by the lack of victorinox in your collection..
+m16owner Yeah everyone needs a Swiss Army Knife.
I dont understand how you live in NY, with the cops acting like that i would move in an instant.
Ciaooo sei come un amico yimmi i tuoi video rilassano è sempre un piacere vederti lavorare e te come persona
I'm interested in this whole "witch blade" thing! badass and utilitarian!
the "weird action one" has same mechanism as a ww2 german paratrooper knife
dude the cops in new york sound scummy for tackling u over a knife. damn
+Dylan Jared Try living in the UK, you better be good at thinking of excuses as to why you have a knife. I've never been stopped by police (touch wood)

+Dylan Jared When I was a kid, 40 years ago, NY cops were considered the best cops in the world. It all went down hill when they started wearing baseball caps.
Dylan Jared In Turkey if cops find you carrying a knife they put the knife between your fingers and push the knife to tear your hand. they do this if the knife is longer than your middle finger
that "mini K-Bar" you have in the tan leather pouch with sharpening stone is the standard knife issued to Naval Aviators (USN & USMC) in late 60's/early 70's and maybe even longer. Very delicate tip.
My dad said it was the Air force standard issue combat knife. He has one from years ago. I liked it so much I found and bought one too.
You're a knife collector me too I'm 17 haven't started but I will later in my life I just like knives so much
$400
Lucian French Bingo! thank you !
Ah, you beat me to it! I was gonna say $400 also. I have the same knife with a wood handle - it was cheaper
But that's a lotta knives!
Damn, I came to say $350
jimmydiresta i got mine for abut 150
jimmydiresta damn that's a lot. Nice collection Jimmy awesome video brotha
Laguiole $120-$160
I was kinda surprised to not see any Bowies, but the Kbar is cool. Thanks for the vids and showing us a very cool assortment/collection.
OMG I had that Gerber boot Knife and lost it... was my fav... and I have the same one you left on the bus... lol
I will guess you were drunk and paid 130$ for that one knife lol
you call that a knife? this is a knife
Nice collection, awesome video, you sir are a true genius, brilliant.
thanks for dwarfing my collection. great vids keep it up
I absolutely want one of those leatherman witchblade knifes! So awesome!!
Kool collection, thanks for sharing!
Found you on Instagram and then on RUclips. Very entertaining way of presenting wellmade stuff. I just love your knife collection.
You have very creative mind.
Hi. You are such a nice person and your works is amazing...wow
I used to have that same 007 knife when I was a kid. I thought I was the only one lol. Awesome vids by the way. Keep me coming

!!!!!!
Zleather handle with stone pouch is military flight crew,survival knife. Was 60's. Into70's strong tool with hammer pummel.keep up great work!
(drooling and screaming) KNIVES!!!!!!! I love knives like so much. In Florida I'm aloud to carry any knife to a certain extent. i have a medium sized boot knife that i carry in the woods. I love it so much, but i do like fixed blades and sheaths more that fold able knives, only because in the time i need it most it waste time flipping it than just pulling it from my hip. cool knives bro!
Congratulations! Mr. D you should get a DIYOlympic Gold Medal.
Ha, I like what you do! Your an artesian in what you make. There is a real need for your work. There a whole bunch of us that need good Kinves, Axes, Multi-tools and so on. Just a thought!
Thank you in what you do! From an ol Woodsman...
the 13 inch stag switchblade at 14 .30 is after 1962. it was 1962 swivel bolsters were intoduced.
I love your knives
200,000 you’re over 2 million now brother
