Love watching you make stuff, reminds me of my childhood watching my dad make stuff in the shop. Precious moments in my life where time seemed to stand still as a project took shape one moment at a time. Thanks for sharing Jimmy!
Jimmy I can't say thank you enough, I have been watching your videos for a long time and you inspire me as well as many others. I wanted to take the time to thank you for all that you do and for showing that hard work and dedication will never go unseen. Keep great work 👍
All I could think is, I have got to try this. Sure I don't have the oven, the shaper, the magnetic hold down etc, but as a little project that might fail it conjures up a compelling force wanting me to try. Thanks for inspiring me!
Fantastic Jimmy! You bandsaw brass like it's soap! Just seeing you use that robust grinder belt and your buffer wheel that looks like an F150 differential is awesome!
They're pretty damn consistent. I remember being caught up about 100+ episodes in and took a break and was maybe 30 uploads behind. I haven't listened in maybe 2 years. What episode are they on now? And What's the funniest title they've used for one this year 😂?
Adesso ho capito Maestro Jimmy, ogni volta che ti ricrescono i peli sul braccio fai un coltello per rasarteli ... ah ah ah ah .. è sempre un godimento vederti all'opera maestro, buon weekend.
Jimmy you are just amazing!!! There is a term that defines people like you: EXPERT; You master your work with perfection, this is for few. You are EXPERT at what you do. Long life and great health to you and your dear family. Greetings from a Brazilian fan. ❤️❤️❤️
Ring-spun yarn is made by twisting and thinning the cotton strands to make a very fine, strong, soft rope of cotton fibers. Ring-spun cotton t-shirts are more durable and last longer than their regular counterparts

A true artist is not one who is inspired, but one who inspires others.
Whenever you are making a knife I sit here with a huge smile...can't help it!
I can't be the only one who assumed this was going to be a knife on one end and a crowbar hook on the other, as one piece. But that would be lunacy.
you can eat the crow now
I didn't assume that was going to happen, but I hoped for it.
yup, I thought the same ... this is gonna be a cool knife ..... and then 2:15 happened. It is still a nice looking knife though.
Thought crossed my mind in the final shot, knife and crowbar together. Still could happen, there is enough crowbar left over.
I hoped it would be a crowbar-handled knife.
Jimmy I can't say thank you enough, I have been watching your videos for a long time and you inspire me as well as many others. I wanted to take the time to thank you for all that you do and for showing that hard work and dedication will never go unseen. Keep great work 👍
Thank you dave!! Respect ✊🏻
As always the man makes it look effortless. Nice trick drilling the holes for the scales.
Wonderful job! Everything is always simple, clear and creative! Huge like!
You can always tell how long it's been since Jimmy made a knife by how much arm hair he has 😂 Beautiful work as always!!
After the heat treat the colour of the steel was beautiful. Great job as always.
Yeah that straw colour was perfect
BEAUTIFUL KNIFE!
Thanks for showing the process.
THIS IS AWESOME! I love the bit of the blade that still has that rough forged look. This just sits well with me. I appreciate your art sir!
Nice job Jimmy. Stay well.
Great job Jimmy. I like this work 👍👍👍
Love the little rough area right before the guard, as beautifully finished as it is that little area reminds us of where it all began.
I knew we wouldn't go a whole video without Jimmy showing us why he's the bandsaw whisperer
You sir...are incredibly talented. Its a joy to watch you work
All I could think is, I have got to try this. Sure I don't have the oven, the shaper, the magnetic hold down etc, but as a little project that might fail it conjures up a compelling force wanting me to try. Thanks for inspiring me!
I think that is the first time I saw you wearing a Harley t-shirt in your videos! Great knife!
Great Video , Thanks Jimmy !!
That Ipe handle really finishes off the solid feel of the knife!! Great work man
Fantastic Jimmy! You bandsaw brass like it's soap! Just seeing you use that robust grinder belt and your buffer wheel that looks like an F150 differential is awesome!
Awesome video Jimmy! Just listened to Making it too, still my favourite podcast every week. Much love from Ireland.
They're pretty damn consistent. I remember being caught up about 100+ episodes in and took a break and was maybe 30 uploads behind. I haven't listened in maybe 2 years. What episode are they on now? And What's the funniest title they've used for one this year 😂?
I get the feeling Jimmy makes knives when the hair on his forearm starts to grow back. This was cool.
The chorizo test is the best Nice work mate
I am predicting a beautiful sheath video in the near future... Great video Jimmy, I like how you left a rough spot to speak to the process.
Jimmy's girlfriend noticing the bald patch on his forearm: " You been making a knife again?" 😉
Love and respect!
I didn't expect the 🐓 at the end!!
I really need the second video of the backhoe!!!
Soon ! Lots more to do
The knife on the end of the crowbar looked damn badass!
Your armhair shows how long it’s been since the last sharp instrument was made😉
You just had to egg the haters on with cutting the pepperoni.🤣🤣 Love the process! 👍👍
You always make it look so easy! But I know its just the years of experience and skill being put on display, bravo.
When you have a forge, anvils, a power hammer, a belt grinder, bandsaws, a drill press and a heat treating oven it is not too hard.
The leather handles you make are very nice too.
Were so many people just use a power hammer for all the work jimmy goes at it with just a hammer for the most part. The man the legend jimmy diresta
congratulations you are a very good teacher And everything you make is perfect I wish you always well warm regards Spyros from London!!!👍🇬🇷
So nice had to watch it twice!
Goodness you are an artist. Thanks for sharing.
just good old fashioned diresta magic
You sure got some nice tools Mr. DIRESTA.
Just found your channel, I wish I had a workshop, but landlord won't let me have one. Beautiful knife you made there, well done dude.
You are truly talented Jimmie! Keep up the great work, it inspires so many.
Well done Jimmy! That is a beautiful knife! I still say that you should be on the show "Forged In Fire"! 👍👍😉😉
Nice work, Jimmy!
You turn wood into gold 💙👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing, Jimmy... Really fantastic work! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Who the hell is down voting this man??!?! Lol all the love brother!
Coolest damn crowbar I’ve ever seen!

What kind of knife sharpener is that awesome knife!
I just love it when you post a new video! Thanks Jimmy!! And now make us a sheat for the knife 👌
Awesome film. Cool push to focus Pferd shot. Wicked looking knife, incredible it came from a crowbar. Mahalo for sharing! : )
What is the make of that honing jig?
Like how you painted those yellow tools white. I imagine there’s a story behind that. 😆
I come to check up on your knife journey and here you are teaching me how to make a split guard with a bandsaw :p.
Hello Jimmy Diresta beautiful knife good job well done
I SOOOO wanted a burrito to get cut at the end... Alas... Thanks Jimmy!
Nice work Jimmy. Your knifemaking skills have greatly improved since that first one. Love the 2-pc guard.
I wish I had half the talent you do. That's a nice looking knife Jimmy.

What a beaut! It's cool to see you use one of those ginormous power hammers you have. Great vid!

Nice! I came from your interview with Steve on the Woodworking show (or whatever he calls it)
Great stuff mate 👍
New Diresta Series..."Will it cut!" The Salami edition... looks delicious
