      Very well said. I truly believe that this gentleman needs to have his own channel. To be honest, I like Jeff’s videos better than Kyle’s.
      Sure Kyle’s knives are amazing, and are incredible “Art” knives, and while Jeff’s knives are of a high level, they are still knives that one could use on a daily basis. Knives are to be used, not put away in some drawer.

    I was so engrossed watching you work that billet I actually forgot you were going to make a knife out of it!
    What craftsmanship. What quality materials.
    The highlight of your production is your explaining each step. Most knife videos I've seen are basically silent projects.
    Thank You!

    When the photo and video popped up on the feed the other day I knew immediately that it was a "Dad Royer" knife" and made sure to wait until tonight to watch. Saturday night with a glass of good bourbon and a homemade Chocolate chip cookie & a new "Dad Royer" video. Only thing that would have made it better would have been if my granddaughter was here to watch with me.
