I am saving this video in watch later because of all the info put into this video. Elegant, well-kept collection. I believe you will like the production “1929” knife from Finch; it comes in micarta, Coppola and bone scales
Wow! Wow! You have an awesome knife collection. Your knives would look great in Pelican 1450 case. They would be better protected. They would not rub up against each other. They would be much better protected from moisture. And they would look awesome in a Pelican case. You have a really nice collection. I want to get into GET knives. The Barlow is an awesome knife.
I wish I had Alchemy's income. I've watched his vids for over a year and a half, and his collection is spectacular! But, not a modest-priced blade (for my budget, anyway) in the group. Those that can, do. Seriously, good work Alchemy. I've learned a lot watching you.
Andrew Massanet Thanks for the kind words. That’s my main goal...to spread and share/swap info. Hahaha! The knives have come over 10-12 years and lots of buying, selling, and trading. 👊
Absolutely beautiful collection I'm just starting to dabble in the traditional knives but I have a ton to learn it seems that there is way more terminology and history that goes into each one of them and that's what intrigues me I love learning about all different types of knives from new innovations in the modern knife world to the vast amount of history in the traditional world. I think the next traditional I want to find is one with the heat treat scale left on it and an easy open pinch notch with either a beautiful clip point or a nice pen/spearpoint with a nice top swedge. Damn you now after seeing all your beautiful ones I want so many of them. Thanks for showing them all I know it can be a pain in the neck at least I know when I did my last slip joint collection vid it was a pain tracking them all down cause I have them in so many different places around the house lol. Well brother hope your having a great day talk to you later
None are available anymore...unless someone sells one on a forum somewhere. GEC knives are basically like gold nuggets now, EVERYBODY wants them and are giving waaay too much for them! But, they ARE the best made slip-joints on earth.
Nice review, I've got quite a few myself.the last four GEC knives I bought QC went to shit,broke back spring (navy knife) gaps between handle material, off center blades etc.there not cheap. I quit buying and quit carrying.
Randy Brown I hadn’t had the same experience, but I have had one or two that needed work and more than a few Northwoods. That’s what I stopped buying. I don’t see how Northwoods and GEC are made in the same place, by the same people, cost more, but have more issues.
Awesome videos and content you put out man! Keep up the good work. Would you do a video about knife values? Either to carry a knife or not. Like, if you found one that was limited production. Is it worth using or keeping it unused. I’m more of a user and switch off my carry every week. But if I was to find a Green Banana bone, I would feel kinda bad using it but then again dose it matter?
srvbluesmaster That’s a difficult question to answer. It depends on the knife, the hand shape/size, and knife joint type (sunken joint or not). Most people eventually end up owning multibladed knives.
Alchemy_1 On,y reason I questioned it is because I’ve been actively looking for one. If you ever feel like getting rid of yours, it would go to a good home here! 😉
Patrick La Shell No worries, man. 66 is he number of the pattern. Every pattern has a number and some have a name and a number. The 66 is also know as the Calf roost and other names depending on the blade configuration.
Outstanding traditional 🔪🗡️ collection. Very elegant and classic
Very well done collection and video.
Thank you, sir 👊

Very nice collection !
🙏👊
Great video! I like your style -- right to the point without a lot of nonsense.
I've watched both part 1 & 2" quite a few times already, I love your knives, great collection, brother.
Truly remarkable knife collection. Awesome video. New sub here!
NICE collection... I collect mostly locking, modern folders, but I'm starting to respect slip joints and "traditional" knives.
Excellent video - I'm looking forward to Part 2 :-)
A beautiful collection sir.
RHINO 54 Thank you, sir 👊

I now need a Bear Lake Micarta in my life. Thanks again for the videos!
Joseph Vero No problem, man. I'm glad you all are enjoying the videos. I also tried to tackle that volume level thing too. 👊

Great collection, man. Love that Michigan Jack in Mammoth bone!

Stassa23 Thanks, man. I enjoy the history behind them too. Hahaha! This is only half. There's still more to come 😁
Love your Channel! Thanks for sharing!
keithkevinken Thanks, Keith! I really appreciate that.
Hai una collezione bellissima. Complimenti
Very nice :)
Thanks, man 👊
Nice collection! I don't own any traditionals but they are looking pretty enticing.
crf450r bullet david Thanks, man 👊
I love the video, but I would like to see you mention some prices for knives and if they are available or not.
Good feedback 👊🙏

Lick creek barlow is in copperhead sawcut bone. Loved the video dude!
Damn nice collection!!!!

Pat K Thanks for the support. I’ll add that video idea to my list. 👊
Sick clip!
Bro. Are you hiphop classics daily? You sound like him aha but great video man💯✌🏾
Are knives with a secondary blade comfortable in hand?
srvbluesmaster That’s a difficult question to answer. It depends on the knife, the hand shape/size, and knife joint type (sunken joint or not). Most people eventually end up owning multibladed knives.
cool knife's
Need a sec part to this
Does Barlow have reliable quality control?
Peter Puleo TC’s are usually pretty much guaranteed QC.
I don't own one but I want to check some out. Where is the best place to buy?
Peter Puleo TC’s usually sell out before they’re even released. I like collectorknkves.net dlttrading.com, and one or 2 others.
Thank you.
Come on brother Bullwinkle and rocky
Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t the #66 Desert Ironwood an SFO for The Knife Connection and not DLT Trading?
roguegeek You’re absolutely correct. I don’t know why, but I always want to call TKC DLT 😑
Alchemy_1 On,y reason I questioned it is because I’ve been actively looking for one. If you ever feel like getting rid of yours, it would go to a good home here! 😉
roguegeek Hahaha! We’ll see what happens.
Alchemy_1 And just like that, I found a perfect one on eBay for a great price. Can’t wait for it to be here!
roguegeek 👌. Congrats!
If you ever see this. Please sell my that mammoth mich jack
Dasaigakid545 Griffith I appreciate the offer, but I have never considered selling it and it’d take a lot to get me thinking about it 👊
Does 66 mean 66 millimeters? Sorry if I missed something.
Patrick La Shell No worries, man. 66 is he number of the pattern. Every pattern has a number and some have a name and a number. The 66 is also know as the Calf roost and other names depending on the blade configuration.
Alchemy_1 thanks, there’s a lot to learn with these older knives.
Patrick La Shell No worries, man. We’re all learning from each other 👊
wery noice!
Hibou Canne Thanks, man 👊
