There are some really good vid's on TH-cam. And then there are outstanding ones. This one is so far above anything else out there. Way beyond outstanding. Ben, you did a fabulous job. Loved it, everything about it.
Excellent video. I really enjoyed the history of the company and designers,which only makes me want the knives more. You guys at Blade HQ continue to impress me.
Wow just an outstanding video, great people, great info and stories and the camera work and post edititng just awesome, well done and big thank you for sharing
Crazy to think that some knife makers have huge expensive machines that almost take the craftsmanship out of knife making. This guy lived out of a truck for years and makes knives with machines from early manufacturing! True knife makers
Is there anything more beautiful than seeing a free man work at his passion. These two simple men exemplify rugged American individualism as it’s best. They don’t need millions of dollars in machinery. A DOS-based CAD program works just fine too. This is what REAL engineering and ingenuity looks like. Bravo.
WOW! What a beautiful craftmanship. Love the way can see how the mechanisms work, almost like steampunk. You guys should be very proud of yourselves, but you don't strike me as the type. Hats off! Seems like a wonderfull way to live.
One word: RESPECT! Respect to you for your efforts on this great vid and respect to this father-and-son team who have been churning unique and innovative stuff as their trademark!
Nice to have the people making the video be truly in the background and let the makers shine. This style of video is really enjoyable, do more of this, and less bro giggle fest.
G and G got me in to Knives when I saw my first E.T.. It took me over a year to find a a E.T.. ( a G&G E.T. not a kershaw) Im so happy you guys at Blade HQ made this movie, every one thinks CRK, Strider and Todd Begg, but these guys come up with some of the best knives. Still looking for a ZT Mudd got any hidden away?
@@adamlykkegaard7289 yeah he started his own little company. I think it is called "knafs" I know they make a little takedown that and then some other things. I definitely miss Ben and Zack both. I really like Kurt, and hoping they find another solid host for knife banter. Knifecenter takes a little bit more of the informative only route but part of bladehq's formula is the entertainment factor.
For some reason this video puts you in a good mood. Every fathers dream to have such a good relationship with his son ( or daughter). Very well done. Love these guys.
I really enjoyed this video. Aside from the interesting topic of knife design and knife making, I have to say that the efforts on acoustic guitar are well worth hearing. You may never earn a penny playing, and maybe have no interest in that, but don't ever stop playing because you most definitely have something to say with six strings.
Great video guys! I clicked it anticipating I would only watch a minute or so, and ended up watching the whole thing! If you guys are ever in Canada, give me a shout and I'll walk you through my shop! :)
Absolutely mesmerizing! Such ingenuity in their actions. I'm a knifemaker, and the level of engineering in those actions is ridiculous! Truly groundbreaking.
I've never been a fan of non ordinary knives and locking mechanisms, but this video made me realize how much work, trial and testing, and passion these guys put into their knives designs. Loved it! thanks!

I'm blown away! just awesome!
Good to see there are people out there still making NEW designs, not the same knife in 30 colors.

You guys should be very proud of yourselves, but you don't strike me as the type.
Hats off! Seems like a wonderfull way to live.

Man you guy's missed your calling, you should be working for Discovery. Really enjoyed the atmosphere you created. Great video!!!!!!!!
אני אוהב את BLADE HQ ..
עשיתם אותי שמח
a beautiful awesome look into the life of two very cool and underrated influential inventors.
When your knives fetch as much as their knives do, and they sell out as quickly as theirs do -- you aren't underrated.
That was silly good.
Best 19 minutes I've spent on the Internet in a long while. Thank you G&G and Ben for an awesome insight.
100% American Ingenuity at its finest.
I always wondered about Ben,now I see what he brings.
You should've never let Ben slip through your fingers. This video is top shelf in every way!!
Top late
@@adamlykkegaard7289 too late again. Ben left for CRKT, came back and then left again recently.
@@jolness1 oh shit really?

You guys need to do a actual documentary put it on IFC great job
These guys are awesome! My life is humdrum in comparison.
sweet
This "Meet your maker" series is genius! Thank you for making these videos! 😃👏👏👏
I can't wait to meet you guys at blade show TX in March.
Wow...
For some reason this video puts you in a good mood. Every fathers dream to have such a good relationship with his son ( or daughter). Very well done. Love these guys.

Love this series please keep them coming!
amazing video! outstanding work Ben. i always admired their work and now seeing this, my mind is blown...

I clicked to watch a minute and stayed the entire 18 minutes. Compelling and inspiring.
Thanks to Ben, and props to the Hawks!

@madmullets
I got me a mudd. Don't remember # off head but I think it was high 300, love the knife.
Do this again updated for 2022!!!
Grant Hawk is like a character from New Vegas
Thanks for this very interesting and entertaining video, Ben!
Really enjoy this series. By far one of my favorite videos on youtube ever, this one was.
Great video guys! I clicked it anticipating I would only watch a minute or so, and ended up watching the whole thing!
If you guys are ever in Canada, give me a shout and I'll walk you through my shop! :)
Gough Custom I did the same... It's addictive! Love your work too by the way.

Wow! I could watch these two all day...amazing craftsmen and inventors.
National treasures right here.
thanks Ben for providing these insight videos into the makers and designers of knives, your videos are really top quality don't stop them.
Awesome vid, Ben. Really nice work. There are lots of the same video exposing the same people and things here on YT. This is different.
Wow, amazing the age of the equipment they're using yet the extraordinary blades that they make!!! Very interesting video
