Dude, you were one of my earliest introductions to EDC and a lot of really interesting things. You got me into zippos, knives, personal defense, and so much more. I remember watching your adventures with Gus from when he was a puppy until the day he passed. You've shared struggles and successes, and brought a lot of good to this community. You gave me a different perspective on so many things. There's more to life than social media and TH-cam. Thank you for sharing your life with the world, slow down and do you brother. Best of luck with everything, you've always seemed like such a genuine person and I wish you stability and consistency in whatever you do moving forward.
I've been watching your channel for over a decade. I purchased your cutlerylover hot sauce back in the day with the little knives on each bottle. I'm 27 now and are going through some of the same things you are. In the past month, my wife and I have moved across the country, I've started a new job and am trying to balance work while spending quality time with her. I really enjoy these life updates because they are so relatable to me. I'm excited to hear more stories about your new job and see a tour of your old and new house when you deem the time is right.
I’m also 27 and I remember the hot sauce, when he posted the video. Seems like this is a year of change for all of us. I’m switching jobs myself after 8 years at the same company.
I'm 28 and still traying to figure it out we are in the trenches boys just waiting for the whistle to blow to go over the top
@@robertkidnley93 Oh yeah when Jeff said he needed a minimum of $15/hr 30hrs/wk I started looking up places in his neck of the woods, around me you need a minimum of $22/hr 40hrs/wk and a good credit score to get in roach infested crapshacks where you'll get murdered. Almost everyone I know is still living at home and we're almost 30, a four year degree is becoming a basic necessity just to keep you from living in a car and we're all the idiots who decided to just go straight to work after high school.
@@hornmonk3zit yeah brother no joke I got community college degree and make 22$ ah hr my wife makes more then that and it still feels like we are one bad month away from loosing it all tbh....I dont understand why most jobs need a 4 year degree I have lost out on so many jobs because all tough I have 10.years in my field of work with extra certificates for it I didnt have a 4 year degree...to me it makes no sense to go into debt to make 2$ a hour more but maybe that's the move this country more and more punishes people for traying to not go into debt
@hornmonk3zit the wealth transfer during covid, really damaged young adults. I'm 33, I was doing decent before covid, but things are completely different now.
dear jeff,
you have been one of the reasons, why i started my channel.
from time to time, people call me the german cutlerylover.
keep on creating great content.
without you, my channel not be created.
without my channel, my knife designs would not be produced.
your channel is like the stone, you smash in a lake.
know what i mean?
your influence hit europe.
never underestimate, who you are!
NEVER!
your friend,
Arthur
Thanks Arthur you are a true friend :)
Man that title made me nervous but i was pleasantly surprised good luck with the new job and thank you for the words of wisdom
Congrats on the new job jeff
thanks
Been watching you since 2008! Pretty sure you were like the OG big knife and EDC channel. You really got me into knives and edc gear and also provided so much other wisdom and insight in so many other areas of life in general outside EDC. Super grateful for the years of entertainment and perspective. You do what you gotta do brother, and we'll all look forward to future videos however often they come!
Damn. Been watching since around 2008 and not having having your daily videos in the future to brighten my day makes me a little sad.
That being said, congrats on the new job! That's awesome. I'm excited to see what the future holds for you once you get settled into your new job and the new house. The future looks bright!
Hey Jeff,
Been following you ever since the beginning, I found your balisong videos when I was in 7th or 8th grade (2007 or 2008) and while that early content really spoke to my adolescent interests in cool gadgets, sharp things, fire, etc, I feel like I've grown parallel to you over the years in a way that's been so relatable. You played with knives when I played with knives. You enjoyed gourmet, novelty hot sauces when I did. You enjoyed tobacco, vapes, and beer when I did, and you set them aside from your life when I did. You've learned so much about yourself from letting another person into your life unconditionally, and I've had that fortune as well. Every time you post one of these humble takes on life, I empathize and reflect on what I've learned about myself recently, too.
Now, although I still enjoy the cool gear and hobbies, it's your funny story times and heartfelt musings on life that make me really value your channel and your content. You're a special guy who never let the fame get to his head, you've always stayed humble and engaged, and your love for what you do has always shone through. And while I think it's terrible that TH-cam hasn't been as lucrative for you over the last several years as it should have been, I'm glad to know that you get some enjoyment out of sharing your life and producing content. Hopefully as much as we, your loyal audience, get from watching it. Over the years, at every step, whether it was in 2010, or 2014, or 2017, or 2020, or last year, or now, whenever I've gone to the comments of ANY video there are always several people talking about how they've been watching for years. I don't know any other channel on this platform like that. Given how fast-paced the internet is, that kind of longevity is unheard of. You're true old school TH-cam, and you're a pretty damn good guy to boot. I'll always enjoy what you're willing to share on the platform, even if it has to slow down a bit to accommodate life. Grateful for all of the things you've shared with us over the years. And here's to many more!!
With gratitude,
Gabe
P.S., winning that wallet from your fathers day raffle all those years ago was one of the coolest things ever! My dad, then brother, got so much good use out of it! And it had such a fun story behind it :)
I have watched your videos for like 13 years now, your Channel has been a constant through Most of my live as a Teen and Young adult. As Long as you do content, i will be watching. Dont worry about uploading like once a week or once a month. We will be here.
I've first watched videos of your Balisong collection when i was 12, and now I'm 28 years old and occasionally looking at your videos
Jeff, after watching your videos for 10+ years. I loved watching all the edc updates, gizmos, and gadgets. But YOU yourself are the reason I'd always come watch the video. You've been a calm, honest, relatable, and fun voice that many of us simply appreciate. And from all of us, thank you for sharing. It's always a blessing brother.
I was looking at your stats on social blade. The channel subs has seemingly plateaued and the view count is only 360k views a month. I was trying to scroll back to see how big your view count was back in the day but you can only see 1/6 of your videos as it only goes 1000 videos back, so about 3 years. With 6000 videos you’d thibk you’d have a decent view count based on old videos being watched. The algorithm has abandoned you it seems. I thoroughly have enjoyed your videos. Weekly videos might be where you fit in. Take care.
I've enjoyed your content for many many years even though much of it is for things that are illegal/disallowed/hard to get here in Scotland, but no matter what brought me some sense of peace and a constant knowing there would be a Cutlerylover video to watch if the day was rough or times were hard. Please don't disappear but absolutely go do you and get on the grind, enjoy your new job and best of luck with your move and the future ahead, it's as bright as your videos have made some not so sunny days, for me and many others.
Been watching you for a long time. I saved 1 of ur vids from 2013 in a Playlist and just got done watching that with got me here. I remember u talking about the post office. Always loved ur content
Been watching your channel for probably 10 years now, it's been a journey!!! Best of luck to everything you and your wife do in this crazy life!!!
It seems like every so often Google changes the TH-cam algorithm and it usually screws the creators. They made some change a few years back which resulted in what I call "the great howling". It apparently hit creators hard in the wallet, as there were many videos complaining about it and the amount of ebegging went up exponentially.
Some channels are now like a commercial with content added.
Some creators even used the "if you don't give me enough money I'll go away" ploy.
I'm glad you didn't go that route, you manned up and got a better job instead.
Been watching your content for the better part of 10 years. Your videos got me through the hardest times in my life. At my poorest I only owned my clothes on my back, my car and my crappy copy of a benchmade. Finding a job in my very very rural area is extremely difficult and you said it best where people aren't hiring for substance of employees. It's great having someone your age having a perspective like that.
We love you, Jeff. You do what you feel is necessary, and we will respect it! Been subscribed since forever, and as strange as a parasocial youtube relationship is, it feels as if you are my friend. And I always wish friends the best in life!
As they say, all good things come to an end. Thanks for the past 10 years Jeff.
Glad you found something man. It sucks that the algorithm is so fucked now that you can't even live off of 500k subs. I was making a decent chunk back when i had like 20k subs, make almost nothing now.
Like you said, can only worry about what you can control. Keep up the good work.
Correct-side Vehicle 😅
The world of business and employment has changed forever.
Believe in yourself and stay focused and positive.
hey man. i love the videos I've been watching forever. may i suggest that once you get settled, just have fun with youtube again. i love the random videos, everything from knives and guns to hot sauce and food and the fishing videos. try some stuff and fun when you have time. Maybe it can bring the channel back up more.
Been watching for very easily 12 years. Have deeply enjoyed your stories. Thank you for what you’ve done.
Hey man, I’m happy for you. Im 30 years old and I’ve watched you from the beginning. Love to see you grow. Proud of you amigo.
I’ve been watching you since I was damn near 9-10 years old I’m 21 now you were my first introduction into edc and the wonders of gadgetry thank you for being a big part of what made me who I am today.
My first job was custodial work. I enjoyed it except when people left human waste on the toilets on purpose or didn't make an attempt to clean it up their self. Quickly moved out of that into warehousing and while it's tougher work on the body, the pay is always solid and after you get some time in, you can move up to a lead position and have less time moving product and more sit down time managing the other employees.
I have been watching you since the beginning, and you were the reason I got into knives, pipes etc. Thanks Jeff for 10+ years.
I’ve been watching for probably around 12-13 years, started when I was 11-12 when I started collecting knives and I learned 90% of everything from you and Nutnfancy. Also got me into Zippos! Really really appreciate everything over the years and there ain’t nothing wrong with slowing down
been watching for over a decade, take care of yourself dude, I'll watch whatever you manage to upload going forward. good luck with your future.
You are wise to put your family first. You can never get time back. All of my dying relatives never said they wish they worked more.
Sad to see you go, but glad to have found you.
Good luck sir. Sounds like a good opportunity.
Been watching you for over 12 years Jeff. Always look forward to the life updates. It’s been fun to grow up with the channel
Thank you for your contributions to YT and the EDC genre.
You, Nutnfancy, and many others have been core parts of TH-cam and inspiring the self defense/EDC.
Thank you for your effort and videos over the years.
Hey Jeff, just wanted to say I’ve been watching for at least 8 years probably more(no longer have access to my original yt). You introduced me to a lot of amazing things. Even though I don’t stay as up to date on your videos as I used to, I just wanted to to the time to say that you for everything you’ve done over the years
Hang in there, you have been a great asset to the community and personally there were a few times that I had questions or posted a video response and asked you a question and you always responded. You are one of the few people on TH-cam that I have followed the longest and you have always just been real and yourself and I have always appreciated that about you. Do what you need to do man we will still be here waiting to see the gear or the lighters or hot sauce or see you throw up trying rotten canned fish
every single thing, in this entire universe shares one universal truth. it will have a beginning and an ending. When I was 23 years old, my girlfriend died, she was 20. It flipped my life upside down and even to this day still affects my life. one of the only things that gave me any comfort and still does, is understanding that everything has to end, sometimes its unexpected and a shock, it may seem to come to early, sometimes, although rarely, not soon enough. the only thing we can do when faced with a change or ending of something, is to keep on pushing. it hurts, its not easy, but you have to keep moving.
I’m glad that you are getting everything squared away. Family is definitely THE most important thing in our lives. 🤘🏻👍🏻👊🏻
I know how it is. I was making great money and a living selling at the local flea markets and ebay but now it's getting so slow I'm having to look for a job now. You never know what life will throw at you. Anyways hope everything goes good and also hope everyone is doing great!
Jeff, don't let invisible obligations, corrupt your physical life. where your heart lays, spend your effort there.
Changing jobs can be scary, I changed jobs a year ago and was very sad to leave all my buddies at the old job. Now a year later I have new friends at my new job and I love it it’s almost like I don’t work anymore. Even if your new job is just for now you’ll find what speaks to you eventually and it’ll all work out 😁 congrats on your new position!
A video every day for 16 years is a gargantuan achievement! You're one of the people whose vids I love to watch no matter the content. You're good at explaining things like myself, you have cool story time vids, you're entertaining, and informative about new and interesting products. Thank you for all you do Jeff, and congrats on your new job! Enjoy all the time you can with your wife and family, for we are never promised tomorrow. God bless, and I'll be right here whenever you post more vids! -Adam
🤜🤛
I started following you when i was about 12 years old, im almost 27 now. you have brought me hours of entertainment and you have taught me loads of things. thanks for being a great person Jeff.
7:43 15 an hr is not a lot at all . I was making that as part time as well several years ago . Best decision I made was when finished my degree now I’m making well over 6 figures . I don’t know how any survives on that today . Hope this works out for you and opens more doors
Hearing you say its difficult to find a 35hr per week job at $15 per hour is very difficult makes me grateful for my job lol
im glad you are grateful :)
I don’t watch nearly as much as I used to… work and family and other hobbies took over. But man I wish u well in life and I’ll always check in once in awhile
Brother i been watching since i was 11 and im 26 now much respect to you and good luck
I’ve been watching for years & thank you for the content Jeff, good luck on the new job & the move. I was blessed to have a fire department job for 32 and now retired. Now I’m home worrying like you said, my worries just change as time passes.
I found your channel looking for balisong tricks. It opened me the doors to other knife and gun channels. I am a gun nut now, partially thanks to you😃
Hey dude you gotta do what you have to! Don't feel bad bro! Looking forward to your future videos.
I've worked 60 to 70 hours a week for the last 20 years as an under ground coal mine electrician. I have a wife and a daughter that will be 13 in a few days. I've made really good money the last 20 years, I've provided a good life for my family but man I've missed alot in there lives. Sometimes I do regret not beening there but I've just bit the bullet and I keep going but I do miss them. I've watched your videos for the last 10 or 12 years and I have enjoyed it man. Keep up the good work
You are a legend Jeff. A TH-cam OG and how I got into knives.
I have not watched all of your videos for the last 16 years, but I have watched more than half at least. I have enjoyed following your journey and wish you the best in the next chapter now. Live your life first and throw us a bone when you have some spare time. I look forward to more of the story times from the house and neighborhood you are leaving. 😁😁
Bro 31 and watched you at 18 looking at zippos and the benchmade model 42 video is where I started with you thanks for all the help
Been watching your vids for over ten years.Always enjoyed it and looked forward to it. Its a shame how You Tube has made things so difficult for such great channels. God Bless. You're one of my top ten favorites, so no matter how few vids you post, Ill be looking them up.
Good luck Jeff 💯 I think I've been here for the 16 years 😅
Great video dude . I hope things go well for you on your new journey. Life is like a box of chocolates.....you know the rest.
Minimum wage was never meant to be a living wage
Enjoy your new life Jeff. Stay calm and go with it. I always say "Just hold on for the ride". 😊
I remember my Grandmother telling me when I was a kid that the older you get the faster time goes by and i never really understood what she meant until i got into my mid forties and she was absolutely right it does . It seems the days are long while at work but the weekend flies by and it seems every year just goes by faster and faster and you can't figure out how to slow it back down its depressing really 😢😢🤷🏻♂️
Always learn new skills to be versatile
Maybe it's an obvious one that you've tried, but the custodial/janitorial stuff at hospitals might be something to look into. They're almost always hiring for all sorts of shifts, and they usually have decent benefits.
Wish you the Best, even tough i never met you, i know you a while. And you are a good Guy!
Very rare cause you feel like a friend when i am watching your Videos.
Using gratitude as your lens for everything in life is the single most important thing a person can do. Thank you, God!
Good Luck to you bud! Always enjoyed your videos! God bless and praying for ya!
I hear everything you're saying. I agree. Today's deep thoughts...
I liked some of Nickelback, but they were Not popular, but that song you're referring to was my Favorite one by them.
Time to have a kid good time for it as everything is new I have a 2 year old daughter and she means the world to me. Best of luck with the move and new job.
I’ve been watching for years under other YT accounts and you were an inspiration for starting my channel. And for silver stacking 😊Thanks for the great content.
big congrats on the new job!
Thank you for your content jeff. Please don't stop making your annual Christmas video. Lol. That's all I ask!
Leave the east coast. It's the best thing I've ever done. Cost of living is not great. With visiting family, etc, with modern transportation, it's easy to get tickets to visit if you need. Like in Dallas, there's random jobs available that pay more/ hour and the cost of living is significantly less.
Jeff, I’ve been watching, off and on, for most of these 16 years. You’ll be forty soon, I’ll be 50. I understand where you’re at. We all have moments where things change. I’ve been divorced; I’ve been widowed. I cannot agree more. Things change, things end. I just wish Christina and you the best, and I’ll still be here, watching.
Have you looked for the Unicorn Job?
'A Couple Needed to Live at and Care For a Big Old Mansion'?
I found one once, but pets made it unviable..
Also, the risk is, when the job ends, you are homeless.
So the Nickelback beef thing me and a friend just were talking about it lol we think it started because they where a popular non metal band that got big fast on a metal label (Roadrunner)
Nice!!! Yeah, those damn senior help companies charge customers soooo much money but barely pay their workers!!!! Doing it privately is much better but you are looking for you own clients.
Yep... want what you have, don't have what you want... and enjoy the moment for what it is.
I was exactly the same way as a teenager. I wish I listened more!
I'm a custodian at a college and I really like the people from work too.
Thanks for the video - very relatable. Hope all is well.
Dude, I'm 70 years old. I'll share some unsolicited advice. Do whatever you have to do to get ahead while you're still young.
You don't want t be scratching around looking for a crummy job when you're 65. If you're not going to go back to school and acquire some marketable skills, get a civil service job, any civil service job with a pension and benefits. It's important to pay your dues up front so you don't have to pay it on the back end. Grow up and don't complain about working nights and week ends. I did that for over twenty five years. As a child, my family had no money. I joined the army after high school, went to college on the GI bill. I worked numerous crummy jobs on nights weekends and holidays. I finally landed a cvil service job with my city. Again , I worked nights weekends and holidays. I now collect two pensions, I have full medical and dental. My house is paid for. I still work part time but I'm not 70 years old standing on a bus stop in the winter to go and clean offices in order to pay my rent.
Jeff lives with his family, and working 40-50 hours week on any shift shouldn’t be a big deal.
It’s super important to save for retirement when a teenager. Investing begins with $100,000. It takes $750,000-$2,500,000 for a good retirement and a good pension plus $1600-$1800 month social security.
People today put fun before sacrifice and getting ahead. Foolish mistake! Compound interest and passive income is boss!
Btw, I started with $2000 at age 16 and when I was 28 hit $200,000 saved and invested. That’s how you build an easy life. Spend a little save alot, and work 50-60 hours to get there faster.
Not the video I expected to see first thing on a Friday morning 😢
I still carry my curlerylover edition ti thrunite.
Good luck and I wish you all the best. . .
I been here 15 years. Great channel
Good luck with the new job.
Missing spyderflyguy, hope all is well brotha
LONG time viewer, thanks for being a fantastic person.
Jeff, been watching for a decade, I know you have discussed it in previous videos but have you really sat down and looked at specifically trying to grow/develop the channel into a position where it can support you and your wife? If you really invest in the channel over the next few months to a year you could be in a drastically different position in life. Consider reaching out to some of your TH-cam network to find someone who has experience growing/managing a TH-cam channel enough to support themselves. You seem like a genuine guy who truly cares about his viewers, we need more of you spreading your thoughts on this platform.
The most genuine guy in TH-cam!
You go through 150 gallons of gas or around 2,300 miles a month? That is over 76 miles per day
Jeff, please keep your head up. We need your videos no matter the content. We follow YOU not the videos.
You should check the world record for consecutive posting. I think you beat Charles Trippy on it if you have truly never missed a day for 16 years!
From what I hear any California jail is really bad unless it's a small town jail any big city jail is way hectic you get every walks of life in there.
There has to be a way to revive this channel in some way so you could continue to make a living on TH-cam. Weather through sponsors or doing cutlery lover branded merch, there are so many ways for you can make far more money on this app than doing full-time work for 15 bucks an hour. If you did a knife release every month I bet you could make a killing. Either way good luck to you and glad you're still making videos
all that needs views, sadly its like bitcoin the more people who start YT channels the less likely you are to gte mire views lol there are too many things to watch these days
gee, the companies that treat people like crap cant rely on them? who woulda thunk?
$500 month in gas? You need a gas/electric hybrid to get that down to $150-$200 month.
thanks but no thanks, the cost of the vehicle itself is already higher the maintenance cost is higher even though its less often, but most importantly in some places iots already more expensive to charge than to fill up...there isnt a charging station for miles anywhere near my home or job, if I was given an older EV for free id use it but I woudont buy one...hybrids sure but not now...
@@cutlerylover i said gas electric not electric. Like a Prius. All electric are junk imho.
@@DG-nb6fe I cant do a sedan I have tio be at work so does my wife and we get rough winters...a hybrid rav might be ok but are just too, expensive and Id want a warranty not to buy used
@@cutlerylover I love my 2024 kia sorrento hybrid, 2000 miles later and only 6 fill-ups so far. 10 year bumper to bumper warranty too.
@@DG-nb6fe its nothing personal but kia overall is unreliable and cheap...they make up for that with their warranty though im not interested in any of their products, but to each their own
Have you considered a factory job? The jobs you are talking about are entry level, and moving up or taking responsibility is expected for the most part. Best of luck, man!
Been a fan 14 years maybe longer
Yep, you are right. Nickelback "Save me". Interesting video and yes Nickelback was a great band and I don't give two shits what people say. Keep up your great attitude.
Your the reason i have a engraved venetian slim zippo.......and i dont smoke lol
