As a lover of high on life this is a crazy amazing craft, you did a absolutely phenomenal job on making this look exactly like the actual knife from high on life.
I thought gatlians were guns, but there was a knife 🔪
i knew it looked familiar
That's the nerdiest normal sized knife you ever made, the sound effects cracked me up.
I Can't imagine what would happen if you embed a small speaker inside the knife with some voices from high on life.
That would be a cool idea tho.
Motion activated so it shouts when you swing it.
@@NorthoftheBorder Like a motion controller on switch or wii 😱
Wish you Happy new year btw.
Hi
As someone who played high on life I approve of a knifey in real life since this one doesn't constantly pester you for not stabbing enemies.
yes
Yeah i think we were the only ones who new it was
@@oogahidesfromanimatronics the guy said in the description that the knife was knifey
Yep
Im making a real life kenny
My partner has become increasingly concerned with the amount of "ADAM WHY?!" coming from my office.
Imagine going to this guys house and seeing all of his sculptures
he throws most of them away or gives them away sadly
This guy has evolved from Tiny to Normal-Sized Nerdy things, and Happy 1M Subs in addition to Merry Christmas!!!
Now make a normal sized nerdy thing of the world serpent.😆
Another couple years and he'll be making Moderately-Large Nerdy Things
@@debel_13 Still…
@@debel_13 only till next year
I'm waiting until this time next year, when he finally moves on to making GIGANTIC nerdy things.
Just ordered my first batch of clay so I can try my hand at some tiny nerdy things! Thanks for the inspiration Adam, keep making awesome videos!
Well, this is the wrong vid for inspiration for *tiny* nerdy things.
It is no longer tiny.
You fool….
They are now *normal-sized* nerdy things
I am sorry, but they are now normal nerdy things.
I’ve not seen Adam use Angel clay before but maybe you’d be interested. It’s great for making things like fake buttercream and clouds.
as soon as the game came out i searched for replicas of the guns and knives, this is amazing! you should make kenny and maybe some other guns too
No one ever tells me what the games called

Never in a million years did I expect this. Well done sir, you really took a stab in the dark on this one and it came out a cut above the rest . . .
I'll show myself out.
Do just that
Take your like and see that you do.
Honestly I think he did an amaz-tang job. He really handled it well.

@@tsaminaminaehehwakawakaeyehehAlright i wont.
We'd ask "Why??" But we all know the motto of this channel- "Why the heck not?" And thus occasionally cursed and always amazing art is made.
That was my motto in robotics engineering- similar results were created
It's from a new video game. Actually a cool piece if you liked the game.
Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: Why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: Why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. Not you test subject. You're doing fine. Yes you. Box your stuff. Parking lot. Car goodbye.
My mom asked why I was melting lego and I said “WHY THE HECK NOT!”
9:58 the shine is extra unsettling! Amazing!!
just discovered your channel and didn’t expect to watch a very humor filled knifey recreation but i’m glad i did because now i have a new channel to binge while on my lunch break lol
Adam makes his videos perfect. He knows which songs to use, he knows how to tell us about what he's doing. And god. his sandpaper ASMR is good.
Agreed
Bro what’s the song pls that shit go hard
@@ishiguro8071 that is what im wonderinggg
🧌yes
You should make more characters from that game, such as Kenny. I think Kenny would be interesting to see in a clay model especially due to how high quality this was. It looks like it was taken directly out of the game.
Lezduit would be pretty cool
Yeah lezduit
@@storm-productions2136 LeZdUit
@Lucas telfer I know? What’s your point?
WEDIDIT
Amazing model, I was always thought it was funny how the gatlians in game ARE the guns, but Knifey is just a handle with an entirely normal, non organic knife sticking out of his head.
Amazing job!!!! I love the game high on life and this is a exact replica of the "knife"
When I watch the intro I always say "And I like to make Tiny, Nerdy, Things." this one through me off guard
Same bro 😂
Same! 😂
I didn't think the absence of "a tiny nerdy thing" would bother me so much
When you added the eyeballs the voice inside my head suddenly went “Hey it’s me, Knifey” in Knifeys voice.
I'm no patron supporter, but i like your videos a lot and I just want you to hear me out for a moment. Realistic Pringles man logo face.
Nice 1 mil good job Adam we all love your original content and I love you art have a good day ps we’re does he put all these figures
Yea
Excuse me, what.
it sounds like he is using the auto word to type. (for example,) nice to hear from you you guys are just looking like a guy who wants to go to earth
Nice spelling
We are does he put all these figures.
This is the superior version of Knifey since you don't have to listen to it talk incessantly
>:(
He really doesn’t talk much
"i didn't play the game but i listened to cry babies complain about talking gun on the internet"
Theres also a way to silence the weapons but that kinda ruins the best part of the game
@@LeGrosMomoLGM Rick and Morty fans be malding the no one else finds just constant verbal diarrhea funny like them
When you're using wood, once you have it shaped and sanded, you can coat it with a liberal coat of cheap super glue, spreading it around with a piece of stiff paper.... once the super glue cures you can finish sand it to a super smooth finish AND it will seal the wood and strengthen it.
i love the eyes the most,its that shine
Best part of a Friday morning; a peak into the mad imagination of Adam.
This isn't his idea its a knife from a videogame but he still did a good job
Lol me too
Yeah I think this from high on life
This is exactly what I imagine anytime there’s talk of a magical talking sword in discworld 😍😍😍
exactly!
It’s from a game called high on life
_..what??_
It'sfrom high on life
That's creative good job
looks straight out the game wonderful job
Can't wrap my head around how you managed to not break that long long fettuccine dealy, this is true craftsmanship right here
Edit : as an italian viewer I really appreciated the shot out in the segment name lol
This gives me so much nostalgia of High On Life, the good stabs i had with Knifey
Bro, it came out 3 weeks ago
@Prota studios ive completed it 10 times
@@protastudios LMAO FR bro said NOSTALGIA 😭
@@Infinus_ holy fuck
@Prota studios yeah. Now it just brings nostalgia cuz ive just stopped.
This reminds me of the Aardman "Purple and Brown" sketches, quite nostalgic!
I low key wanna do this in my art class😂
Yess - you totally should. Art teachers are usually p open to student making sculptures out of clay or even scraps
the super sharp wooden blade might not fly though :p
Congratulations on your first million! Absolutely deserved. 👏
I’m not even a little disappointed that ‘tiny’ was replaced with ‘normal’
Looks great!
Loved the editing and narration on this….well I ALWAYS love your editing and narration but….the flexible blade 😂
Don’t read my profile picture!
@@tsaminaminaehehwakawakaeyeheh ok
This looks great!!
9:12 STAB STAB STAB! NOICE!
So excited that this channel has reached 1,000,000 subscribers! Keep up the amazing work Adam and congratulations.
I love how North makes use of kitchen gadgets like cheese graters and a pasta machine! It’s so creative and shows that you don’t need the fanciest and most expensive tools to make incredible art!
I have always thought Knifey looks satisfying to just hold in your hand, imagine actually using it in real life.
This is the first video I’ve seen of yours! But this looks so incredible, and congratulations on one million subscribers!
He looks an early 2000’s video game character… I love it
I didn’t know he was from High on life oops
Look up high on life
Just curious, you know this is from a game right?
Ye
@@fishpot5530 yea this is a game voiced by some characters from a show called Rick and Morty, the game and show have nothing in common though
It’s a character from High on Life. It came out this year, I think
Who else just randomly came across a North of the border video and just couldn't stop watching since then? 😹❤️
If you end up using wood to make a blade again, a technical I like to use is covering the wooden blade in aluminium plumbers tape. Then if you mist it with black spray paint and use some fine steel wool to pull as much paint off, you get a very convincing real steel effect. Then just rinse and repeat until you have the desired level of grime.
When I first saw this I thought "Huh, that's neat." Then I played High On Life and I realized it was the knife.
What’s good about your channel is that you get all your views from people who are (somewhat) interested in the process, not just to see the final result. Also the vibe. Cant forget ‘bout that.
Edit: its also so easy to watch and never gets boring
As someone who just started on a 3d art class, you great fellow are always an inspiration. (Also oddly enough you explain your process better than my teacher)
Wow, I love it!
Dude, nice replica of the high on life knife! That’s super cool!
I look forward to your videos for two reasons, your talents, and your humor. You are truly a blessing.
I imagine some archeologist digging up some creepy knife and multi eyed angel ect and not even knowing what to think xD
You're whole channel is just so cool.
as an italian viewer i like the fact you added a whole chapter for us thank you from italy
Adam: I like to make normal sized nerdy things
Me: Somethings wrong here, I can feel it
the intro has changed, we have been blessed by the NOTB God!
IT IS A CURSE NOT A BLESS

"Then i can admire just how *sh@#%tty* my free-handed template is before finding a much better one on the internet"
*Perfection*
You should've put a super thin coat of plaster on the wood after the First sanding and then sand it again before the base coat... Because the wet paint raises the fibers in the wood and makes the grain visible.
10/10. I would like to politely request the creation of the knife's companion gun 🙏
Around 3:30, you could have told me he was making that grandmother SpongeBob tried to sell chocolate to, and I would have believed you.
You really nailed the knife of High on life good job
Nice work on making knifey from high on life
Dude.
I WANT THE WHOLE SET!
I've never wanted a knife more in my life! Haha, great work sir. And congrats on the 1 million subs, Well deserved
Just casual North the Border things like noises such as "Aura ra ra ra"ho so normal .
HAPPY NEW YEAR @North of the Border
This has to be one of your coolest models yet bro. One question, tho: What song did you use for the glamor shots? It think it sounds quite well
Awe. How adoreably disturbing. Well done Adam! And congrats on 1 million subs!!
North of the border is like the last supper, but instead of bread, it’s clay, and blood is UV resin
looks good I like the monster handle
We now need a Crazy Frog Revolver to finish the set.
Adam, another wonderful terrifying creation, and congrats on one million subs. You deserve it.
Knifey looks awesome
That music that starts playing after the slow reveal is priceless! 😅 Great work, by the way! 😎👍

Amazing work and video as usual! Very refreshing and original idea as well, love when you do some wood working
Im going to be like most of the people who replied on the other comments. This is not Adam's original idea, The knife comes from a game called High On Life. The End.
Ah yes, woodworking. The art of covering expensive, highly-sought after wood in clay, never to be seen again.
Not original, bozo
I love how they did it with the high on life one
You have so much skill
I love this so much! Thank you for making this video!
The song at the end is really good! Does anyone happen to know it's name?
i want to know too
Yeah, it sounded like it might be from High On Life but i just could not find it.

Anytime he says "bake and bond" I think of bacon.
The first time I heard him say it I actually thought he said "bacon bond"
This is deeply unsettling, I love it
I love how his eyes are a little smushed in it kinda fits the character
“High on life” knife
i wonder if he knows its from High On Life the game
This is perfection.
wow you did good on that i like it.
OMG you hit 1MIL subs! Im so happy for you! Congratulations Adam.Also this looks like a weapon from half life lol
And i like to watch you, while you make normal sized nerdy things!
Thanks for the tutorial
wow that looks mega accurate
