About⬇️
Hi, Im Alex, im a knife maker and RUclipsr, based out of southern Pennsylvania and my youtube channel is Outdoors55. This channel started as an outdoor backpacking channel, but quickly grew into a knife/ knife making channel. Everything I do on my channel is family friendly. I primarily focus on knife / knife making videos but occasionally throw in something different. Thank you for watching!😀

If theres any interest I can do a voiced over version. Let me know by leaving a comment and liking the video. RUclips has really taken a dislike to knife making, and some other specific content lately. Not sure whats up...I guess the same old youtube crap we've come to know and love😖 Hard to stay motivated! Thanks for watching regardless! Its always appreciated!!!
I just want to say thank you because you have inspired me to make a knife after watching your channels.
Keep on making video to inspiring others.. Sincerely, fan from Malaysia
The youtube crackdown is pretty shitty but I'd be interested in that voice over.
This knife is pretty nice!
Please, voice over!
I actually love your voiceovers as it adds your personality to the video but I also know what it is like to have folks comment to just stop talking (I get it a lot on my channel and then when I don’t talk all my hardcore subs tell me they miss my voiceover, yours are way better than mine though...) I love them and look forward to them every time I get a note you’ve uploaded a new video.
I feel the hurt on the knife videos, I’ve seen the same with my axe videos. It’s like a month ago they just turned off 3/4 of my views. I guess I need to make some primitive hut swimming pool videos. 😁
Voice over please
Awesome knife. I love your stuff, I missed the regular full commentary though... which I love.
I love videos of people making stuff but without talking or commentary
Please stay motivated!!!!! I enjoy your content and have become inspired to dive into the world of knife making as a Hobby...your voice over productions create a air of humor to your video's
I vote for a voice over version of the video. I know this is more work but it's makes the videos way more interesting. Hope you stay motivated and keep putting out videos.
This channel is the reason I started knifemaking, and I’ve started my own business selling custom knives and other hand forged items, thanks so much for posting!!
Commentary would be nice but still enjoy watching .... thanks for making videos
Now that’s a knife! I want to make one similar to that. I’m collecting some tools, but I don’t have the fancy oven/forge.
I love file Knives. For several years I bought and sold file knives made by Charlie Davis at Anza Knives. Hold an edge, sharpen easy and if tempered properly can be very tough. Only issues I had were rust and staining if you don't maintain them properly.
I love that you can make one of my least favorite styles of knives, a tanto, and make me love it! It is truly amazing. Well done sir!
Yep, yep yep. Keep doing what your doing. Your content is top notch... john
I love how you went with the short handle to put the weight towards the edge, that thing will have a lot of chop- but in a small footprint! I want to make a file knife now too
lol i was like 😳 👀 ..totally thought you grabbed the file out of the oven while still 1600° missed the time laps edit 😂
The way your hand vibrates to sand who needs a power Sander. Cool keep up the awesome work
This was fun to watch by itself. I’ll definitely watch it again if commentary gets added.
This was very satisfying to watch
This video was so satisfying to watch
Not sure how I missed this video. I do miss your humor, but it’s nice to break things up sometimes. Great job. Gotta live the insta- serrations. I had a similar result with a half round chisel ground Japanese style Wa handle knife a while back.
Liking the sharpening choil!
Thank you! Very therapeutical!
Please keep making videos, I know for sure there are people on here that watch the videos for the same reason that I do. It's relaxing. I've just recently come across your channel, I would love to one day make my own knife, as I think it is one of the most underappreciated skills out there.
Tha m you again and stay motivated! Also looked at your description, it is nice to see that you state everything!
Keep up the good work :)
Would love to see your attempt at a sword of some kind you have done small knives and some good large ones. But really love the channel keep up the good work I have all the simple tools and have been contemplating making a knife myself thanks for all the inspiration.
While knives are a hobby of mine and I naturally gravitate towards videos about it, your humor and presence on camera make your videos not only a cut above the rest but also very genuine.
Anyone can film their hands as they do something but not everyone can make their personality be just as appealing as their work. Sometimes even more so, look at This Old Tony, I doubt even half of his subscribers even own a sheet of sandpaper let alone a machine shop.
I like to watch you and others make knives to study how everyone’s techniques are to make me better glad your back
Always an inspiration.
Thank You Alex.
Proper Top!
A fine cutting edge must be treated as such in order to last. I love making file knives!
Yes , would love a voice over. Love seeing your posts Alec.
nice! miss your commentary, also the music. hope youtube get their shit together...
0:43 filing a file with a file...
Turned out great
Please do a voice over version also can you please make a pattern available if you haven't already
Beautiful tanto.👍🏻
I really like the edge dynamics on this.
Nice work beautiful tanto 👍
While you were removing some of the guts of the tang I was wondering, have you ever tried removing some of the guts in tangs with chisels first, then cleaning up with files? Chisels are much rougher so files will certainly still be needed, but they do go faster.
edit- Voice overs are preferred, but I do not mind the quiet videos. Both are great
I always love watching your voice overs, there is a lot to learn from others and you are entertaining as hell so it makes it easy to learn and still enjoy the video.
1:35 sounds like the Coelophysis from walking with dinosaurs
Beautiful little knife 👍
I don’t know what brand of coffee you were drinking when you made this video, but you should get them to sponsor you 😄
I always enjoy your videos no matter what. The knives that you make are something to behold. Great work keep it up man! 👍
Awesome little knife you made there! I was expecting problems when you used a file to check you files hardness!
the god of hand sanding has appeared
I’d buy one of those!! That looks amazing
Inspiring. Thanks
that belt sander has some serious bite!
I want that knife!! Love your videos
Pretty cool
some of the highest quality videos ive ever seen
Enjoyed your video and gave it a Thumbs Up
Very cool. 😎
Why did you file a notch at the base of the cutting edge?
It gives a definitely end of the edge which can help with sharpening, without hitting the edges of the plunge line/bevel/ricosso
Awesome! Have enjoyed following you on your journey.
that is an awesome knife!!
Love you stuff and your channel... Please keep up the great content
Amazing video!
Good job, Alex. As always.
Yere I would Watch the voice over good work mate love you vids keep it up 👍👍👍👍
You make awesome knifes man really love tanto blades👍
Very Awesome mini Tanto, excellent video 👍
Love your channel
Awesome knife and video as always Alex but voice over is always appreciated. We love your videos and sure hope you don’t get discouraged by you tubes nonsense. Take care.
Very nice.
awesome job
Yes please with the voice over! Lol! This is an awsome little bugger! I still like the fixed blade that you made that slightly resembled a spyderco best, but this is probably my second favorite. If you still have that one you should give it a cameo in your next vid! Thanx Alex, appreciate all your work!
New sub, loved the file to blade video!
You’re Super talented my friend
that turned out really nice. :)
These sped up noises reminded me of alien movies and horror movies... wicked.
Nice knife as always. 👌
It's good for me to hear your commentary on the videos but I don't like when there's background music. I prefer the sounds of the tools and everything.
Love this video style. Really enjoy pretty much every single video this channel has made, and your humor and edits, but this video style is great at least every now and then 👍🏻 thanks for the inspiration as I hope to be staring my first fixed blade soon
Also, did I mention, Awesome Knife! And voice over please if you have the demand for it
I love knives, and your videos are great ;)
Looks useful in wood working
damn that tanto is 🔥🔥🔥
New viewer (and subscriber). I like the format, but I will go back and check out some of your voiced videos. I’m not usually a fan of chisel ground knives, but this one is a beauty. Cheers!
Sick bastard.. awesome noise bruh. Mesmerizing.
it's cool! i wonder about chamfering the finger choil though, for blister avoidance.
Den kommer rosta som fan
This knife looks like a nightmare to hold but it still looks great
You can use compound on an a30 belt before buffing to get a finer grain.
Hmm, idea, machette come file, for when you have bushes to clear at 12 but burrs to remove at 3:30
here you go, your 1000th like ;)
need the voice over, love learning as i go
Good looking knife there Alex. I bet that one would shower sparks when using a ferro rod.
Datsa very nicea
Voice over would b awesome! Always enjoy your videos! 👊👍
He's so fast!
Knife making ASMR
You know, instead of using a vacuum to cool the knife down. It would of been faster if you just quenched the knife in a bucket of cold air!!! Much,much faster and easier!!!🤙🏼 you rock brotha!!!
Why do i love this knife? I dont like Tantos really. But man this is fantastic Alex! Top job :-)
Good project this one for reciclyng a file. By the way... I never saw a review from you of Bahco knives which some says that they are the ones that makes the blades to Morakniv. Bahco has two types in one hand the 2444, 1446, 2446 the first one comes with the Laplander saw combo, but they all has the same thin blade, only differs in the hand grip. And then there is the 2449 which is the knife version of theyre chisel the 2448... which I belive it could be a good option to be used as a survival/bushcraft/preppin/citycraft tanto knife style and not being considered by the police as a weapon... Anyways... I consider it's a good combo, one of the first ones to be used as a personal neck knife, to eat and such, and one of the other two as a belt knife to be used for wood tasks and self defense. Would like to see a review from you though. Thanks
Wau awsome knife 👏
God job!
How many hours did you put on that bad boy?
Great frickin job man!
hi, Great channel! I'm just starting off in the blade smithing world and your content is very inspiring . Question, why didn't you extend the handle scales to cover the finger notch with a rounded surface? with the pronounced spine, the file will stand out plenty. won't such a hard edges top an bottom be hot spots? your insight is very helpful thanks
Could you do another video where you forge a knife?
Ew chisel grind........ lol jk love your vids man. Can't wait to make my own knives in the near future
Just watched your steel comparison video...seems to me steel is steel... Maybe try some Damascus? Love your channel keep up the get stuff.
Thanks. I was worried that there wasn’t going to be any hand sanding
Perhaps a silly question, but why did you opt for a tiny knife when you had such a big piece of steel to work with?
Alex i love your videos!! Do you sell any of your knives?
I think you should just do the full commentary, it adds a lot to the video
Please keep up the videos and educational content regardless of RUclips. I may have missed this in the past but do you make enough knives to actually sell? I’d buy one to help support the channel for sure.
I for one, would like to hear a voice over. I have a similar bandsaw set up. I go through blades very quickly. What do you use? Thanks-Steve
