Thanks for sharing your awesome knife making skills with me Mic! Was a great experience. Let's do it again!
@@just_alex Absolutely - you are welcome anytime! I’ve got some amazing ideas for tools we can make 👌🏻🔪🔥
Can u let me know how to get intouch love your attention to detail and in need of a proper fishing/ camping/ cooking knife cheers
Ive added now thanks
. Amazing skill
I love hearing the story of him leaving the job he hated and going after his dream. And bravo to the wife for pushing him to do it! Beautiful Story and happy to hear it! Lovely video!
Alex is like a wide eyed kid in a world where you learn something new every day
Jeez, mic is such a good teacher ! Literally none of us here I’m guessing make knives often 😂 but this guy made it sound so clear and understandable, top man
Yeah I agree Mic is so good at talking clearly! It was a pleasure meeting him!
Yeah he was great, I loved learning about knife making alongside you here! Great video! You've also inspired me to try making my own sushi
Alex, I think you’ve come of age as youtube vlogger. This one was unbelievable. Well done buddy
Thanks!
Literally no interest in knives or tools or machines yet was utterly captivated and did not want this video to end! What a joy to watch a true artisan work. Stunning! Thank you so much to both of you. 🙏🙂
"Bugger it clear your desk, come home will make it work." I cant fathom having that kind of support what a truly lucky individual.
Fascinating story for mic”s journey. Beautiful craftsmanship. Loving your vlogs Alex
Thanks for watching! :)
This was an incredible episode. Born in Carmarthen and raised just outside, I love that side of the world. The knife making was filmed and documented incredibly well, great video and lovely to see you give such exposure to high skill small businesses like this. His story was brilliant
Yeah I love sharing the stories of people like Mic and Gruff who are such great and skilled people!
Alex’s a great storyteller and his videos are enjoyable to watch. Raw and relaxing.
Thank you! :)
It’s so awesome that people are just attracted to you, teaching helping, adventuring. Just stay safe! This is the life I hope to live soon.
Wow Mic's work is just absolutely stunning, It's absolutely inspiring that he taught himself all of the ways of his craft via watching videos and things. We really can do anything we put our minds to as humans, we just need the courage and opprotunity to take a dive into something new and unknown. I watch your videos to destress and I find myself looking forward to and anticipating each new video, thank you for everything you do Alex!
Thanks, glad you find the videos enjoyable to watch! :)
Mate! The walkthrough of the knife being made was fantastic!
The craftmenship of the knife builder is simply awesome! It is a form of art ❤️
Glad you can appreciate his skills!
That was awesome. Really cool story of Mic finding a passion and turning it into a business/career. Especially cool that he's just learnt as he went once he realised how much he enjoyed it. Super knowledgeable and his attention to detail is special. The finishing touches at the end with the finish of the handle, the sheath, the packaging, box and branding was cool.
Mic really puts in the extra effort, he is such a good, positive guy to hang out with. Thanks for watching!
Well done Mic and Alex keeping old traditions crafts alive, such a worthy thing to do when the future is so uncertain for so many. Xx
Mic's laugh ans smile at the end was very fulfilling! Great work guys so nice to see how wholesome something like this can be!
This is one of the best things you have done, Alex. Human interest, making stuff; brilliant.
Yeah, I love meeting new people. Especially people with amazing skills like Mic!
I like how you make good use of your social platform, visiting and enjoying meeting new people and their life.
How humble and profound Mic is, I wish him the best!
Thanks for watching!
Just found this channel. Gotta say everything is natural, peaceful, just learning more about the beauty of things. Youre a truly wholesome person, wish you the best.
not sure what fascinated me more, the knifework or the leatherwork? these skills are a dying art and need to be preserved!!!
Wow that was really enjoyable to watch, mic is an amazing craftsmen with a excellent eye for detail. Was great to see that all done in a single day with precise details of everything he was doing.
👏👏👏👏
That was my favourite video so far Alex, the Knife making was fascinating and Mic is an absolute legend and all round good guy.
Beautifully put together, peaceful, mind opening, inspiring, in this dark world your a shining light and what can say mic is a legend glad he found his calling after leaving the army which can be incredibly hard bless him ❤
It’s not often that I’m captivated by something but this was just exactly that. Mic is an absolute gent that is so proud of what he does and genuine that I’m almost jealous (in a nice way) Such a heartwarming video. Thanks for showcasing these great people!
Yeah Mic sure is a good role model! Such a good guy!
The best way I can describe your videos is something I’ve mentioned before. It’s the format of a old school vlog partnered with your totally just infectiously lovely and positive attitude. It makes every single video absolutely just unbelievably enjoyable
Thanks so much Rogan!
I wish I got comments this nice about me. 😍 😂
@@fishwithcarl can’t lie Carl your channel got me into fishing but it sucks being disabled because fishing is like one of the least accessible hobbies 😂
I’ll comment something nice on ur next video x
That very proud laughing from Mic where he's handing you the knife out at the end of the video is absolutely beautiful!
I did not know that knife making requires so much effort and precision and in the meantime it looks like so much fun. From now on I'll look at my best knife differently! Thanks Alex for another amazing episode.
Just completely incredible. Thank you.
Amazing craftsmanship Alex and the knife wasn't bad either............. The sushi that is 🍥🍣😂
Wonderful to see skills from way back when once more. So few real craftsmen out there now. Wonderful episode
12.56.....Definitely some dogging site you turned up at unaware. No cars when you arrived and none there in the morning when you left.😂🤣😂
Mic's work - awesome!! I hope people appreciate the love and craftsmanship in all these handmade pieces. Great idea, Alex!
Absolutely wonderful. One of the best things I've ever seen on CZcams. Bravo!

Wow the knife maker, what a great story. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Cool video as always! I love sushi so much I try to make it like once per 2 weeks (takes a lot of time and preparations).
The part with Mic and the knife making is so cool! As a bushcrafter myself I really appreciate the work that he puts in his art, and the knife is neat! He has so much knowledge and explains everything in a very passionate way which makes it very interesting and enjoyable to watch... he needs to open his own CZcams channel!
I don't know why mate, but your videos are absolutely calming. Thanks for appearing in my TL... You're content is the absolute sauce.
Simply WOW! that discipline, respect, practice, patience, persistence, focus, awareness and expression of ‘the talent’ of both on your own ways.. Congratulations! Well-done! Mic and Alex 👏 👍🙏

Wow, watching the making of that knife was really cool. And Mic certainly knows his stuff, great guy.
Super interesting, 2 artisans plying their trade, thanks for sharing Alex
cool..knife looks superb ..great job Mic
My daughter watched this, and then told me about it. That was a wonderful video, Alex, thank you. Always wanted to make a knife for myself (have loads of old and blunt metal files…) but will likely never get round to it, but this story whet my appetite again! Bless you for this one video. I’ll watch some of your others too. Les in Chester
Stunning craftsmanship 😮
Excellent video, Mick is a very talented and extremely nice gentleman, that was a absolute pleasure to watch, he explained everything so well in such a good way, the knife is amazing and will always be a brilliant reminder of what was clearly a very enjoyable experience, keep up the great work both of you.
Beautifull knife; so much hard work and effort. He is an artist.

Thanks!
As a metalworker/fabricator/welder, I found this very interesting indeed, wonderful knife craftmanship. Sushi, in my naivety I thought Sushi was all raw food but after seeing what you cooked, maybe I should look into it a bit more. Every video you keep surprising us with different things, it's wonderful and relaxing. Thank you 😃👍
Another great video Alex
