Two of my girls in Walter's video !!!! (grinning like a kid in a candy store) - thank you so much for spreading the knowledge throughout the years and for showing other people's work.
Really love to see my tanto, thanks for publishing it!! Man you are the best, I started making knives after learning a lot from your videos..first of all not to be afraid to experiment every day something new
I was trying to figure out what they were. I knew I'd seen the shape before somewhere, but I couldn't for the life of me figure out where or what they were supposed to be for. Pretty knives.
Nice to see the denim shirt making a comeback. I've noticed that the way I evaluate these is interesting to me. I'm really looking for form. Sure, it's nice to see fancy materials and excellent fit and finish, but if your knife doesn't have an ergonomic handle and a well balanced blade in good proportions, I'm immediately dismissing it. And generally, innovation isn't going to be a good thing. Stick with what works -- the tried and tested. If you must vary an established pattern then small variations rather than radical alterations is the way to go. It's only when you've mastered the art of making the basic knife aesthetically pleasing that you should be chasing the fancy materials and high standards of fit and finish. You don't want to be putting lipstick on a pig.
22F in your shop? And you're ok having all that CNC equipment in there without issues? That's what keeps me from getting a CNC, lowest my shop drops is about 40F.
There are some nice knives, but also quite a few ugly ones too. Noticed the finish on some that was not very good also. Seeing these makes me proud of the knives I have made.
It's inspiring to see what other people are making. Thanks for posting these, Walter!

Walter, love your content. I’ve learned a lot from watching your videos. Thanks for adding in my picture in your video.
Really shocking and wild to see one of my blades in a Walter Sorrells video thumbnail when I opened RUclips. Thank you!!
It's a real honor to see my knife in this selection. Thanks for the inspiration, Walter!

If it is cold in the shop, fire up a forge and get busy. Between the forge and activity, you'll warm up in no time.😊
Walter the lil diesel powered heaters that are all the rage run REALLY efficiently. perhap ya might wanna give em a shot.
Ahh! man I missed getting a photo over for this years vid.
Thanks for adding my cheese knife set in!
