    I’m a big GW fan too. Again, I probably don’t have half as many as I would like to have, but hopefully I’ll put that right overtime. I have a good relationship with The Eginton group, because as you say, it’s important to keep the knife industry alive and not just a preserved history. Hence my extensive collection of modern Sheffield knives. Keep up the good work!

      Hi Eric
      Funds are definitely getting tighter here. With the new arrival coming. It just means I need to put more thought into my knife purchases.
      I hope you are well and all is going well?
      Always appreciate you're support and encouragement 🙏. Thank you Eric

    Thanks Steel, another interesting one. I'm also a big fan of Egginton Group. Along with the other Sheffield knife makers, I agree with your point about buying new knives as that's the only way to keep the brands alive and craftsmen employed. Good luck with not collecting fixed blades, I wasn't going down that rabbit hole either. Now I've got about 30, how did that happen?

    • @SteelCityKnives
      @SteelCityKnives  Před měsícem

      @Dandenongkelly Sorry for the late reply. 30 fixed blades. I'm taking that as a warning 😂. I've got a couple of Moras and was gifted a Sheffield fixed blade from someone in America. It came back home 😂. I've got a big enough problem with the folders.
      Thanks for the comment mate. I like seeing fixed blades collections. Sounds like you have a good one!

    Well I've decided after a lifetime of Mora/Swiss army/Opinels I want something with a bit more gravitas, a pocket knife with taste and distinction. There's just loads of them, I want Sheffield steel on an English knife. (I'm working class not racist.) These videos are pretty helpful, I won't be collecting knives, I use them, but I want to own something worth leaving, I want to own and use a 'heirloom' class tool. Very beautiful collection there, thanks for the show and tell, superb!

    • @SteelCityKnives
      @SteelCityKnives  Před měsícem

      @wayout6092 I love your lifetime selection!!! What 3 brilliant companies that I have myself. 3 companies that time proven and punching well above their price tag.
      Keep me posted if you get anything? And what you think? I'd start off with a cheaper one and see how you get on.
      Mate, those 3 brands could last anyone a lifetime. Brilliant selection. 👊
