      You just like it because it won't fit in a slip 😂. It's a proper work knife 💪.
      Cheers mate 👊

    Hi Martin , great look at this one mate !
    I love the brand and have a huddle of otters ! 🤣
    I have the Dippy Hippy , but not in plum ....the ordinary one .. can't remember the wood .
    I will share this ....I have only returned two knives in my life , a Case and a Otter .
    I fancied the white bone large anchor with a blued blade , like a shotgun .
    This was some time ago and took me out of my spending comfort zone . It was over a hundred quid .
    I kid you not , it had zero walk and talk , on the open or the close !
    That being said , my others are super quality .
    Congratulations on your milestone mate !
    Catch you in the middle of the night ! 🤣

      I know, mate. I'm going get you an application form at my place 😂🤣😂. I do alot of nights as well as being a bad sleeper so I can keep you company on those restless nights 👊
      That anchor knife with the blued blade is more than I'm willing to pay 😮. But a beautiful knife. Very different, isn't it?.
      Speak to you soon, mate 🫡

      Thanks, MB. I missed RJs, and they were talking about Barlows 🙄. Gutted, mate.

      Hi mate 👋
      Thanks for the video on youtube earnings. There were not many out there, and I found it very helpful. Undecided if I'm going to do it? My employer is funny about people having second jobs. And over here, it turns out we have to do self assessments. If we monetize our channel. Loving your channel, mate. Encompasses everything I'm into 👊

    That's a beautiful knife you have there Brother. It might not patina well but it will take a great edge and is tough as nails. I like the wood it gives it an authentic farmers knife look. I always meant to get one of their Black Cats . Thanks for sharing Brother

    • @SteelCityKnives
      @SteelCityKnives  Před 3 měsíci

      Oh, it patina's. I was trying to compare it to say a 1095, which if you look at with a moist eye it patinas 😂. This does take a little longer but considering our climate isn't a bad thing😂.
      Hope you're doing well, Doug? 👊
      I still want to get a few more for sure. I want a black cat

    Hi Martin knew you would get to the thousand mark congratulations, always been a fan of Solingen knives and agree with you about handles I like that style it may be old fashioned but give me comfort every time, to many modern knives are slab sided and to narrow, I remember German made knives being better value than now a days but that's life. 😁

    • @SteelCityKnives
      @SteelCityKnives  Před 3 měsíci

      Thank you, Lewis!! I appreciate your support and guidance, mate 👊
      I remember you saying chillout and enjoy it, and that's been my mantra all the way through. Even when I'm doing videos, which caught me a bit of flack. I still enjoyed the journey.
      Hope you're doing well? 👊

    Beautiful knife, my friend! Quite the interesting timing, as I just filmed a video on an Otter knife, myself! 😁
    Otter makes great knives, I really enjoy them. Sadly, aside from Moonraker, they're quite expensive!
    That Hippekniep reminds me of my J. Tamer Sodbuster, brilliant.
    Cheers, as always!

      I'm trying not to get duplicates in the collection now. But after seeing your video, I'm tempted. Plus, I like the look of the beech in this. We definitely have a problem 😂. Knife addiction is real 😅

    My walnut Hippekniep came rather rough around the brass liners, but with a nail file and some elbow grease it really is beautiful now. I rub mineral oil into the wood handles and it just gets better with age. The backspring is very strong on these knives, a solid workhorse. Cheers!

    Hi Martin. Yes I'm watching!!😮😊( I always do, although i dont often comment) And to this day I appreciate you pointing me in the right direction regarding the purchase of my Hippie's. But of course I've now GOT TO get a Micarta version. 😂
    Totally agree about pricing. I hate the feeling of being ripped off. I've wanted a German Eye Clodbuster with wooden scales for a long time. It seems that they 're only available here from Heinnie for £75 and I absolutely refuse to pay that price for a knife where the wood is unspecified knowing full well that they sell for $50 ( about £40,) in the US. It would appear that we're just being ripped off and exploited. It's very frustrating😡.
    However, a belated congratulations for reaching the 1K milestone and all the best for the future.
    And if you happen to know where I can get a Micarta Hippie please let me know.😂
    Also this is a bit random but having recently been on a SAK spree I saw that Amazon have some Evowood 10's for sale at £29.95 at the moment.( Considerably cheaper than anywhere else) BUT you must type Victorinox Unisex - Adult's Evowood 10 to get that price otherwise you will get a much more expensive option. Hope this is of help to someone. 😊

    • @SteelCityKnives
      @SteelCityKnives  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Amazon have had some insane prices for Victorinox recently, and Koch and kochin have had a massive sale. You can pick a Victorinox up now cheaper or the same price as an RR or other Chinese brands.
      The clodbuster junior is on special offer at HH but only in the plastic covers.
      I think I've got the Evo 10 in wood 🤔. Too many knives 😂.
      The prices do differ so much from seller to seller.
      Cheers though mate and I appreciate the heads up.
      I'm glad your still watching mate 👊

    Great video brother , can't comment on otter cos I don't own one , I do like a soddy though most of mine are of the budget end which I like as it keeps in traditional of the history of them ( but really it's because I'm t tight arsed Yorkshireman) 🤣👊

    Could you (or anyone who is reading this) suggest a good traditional British knife? I seem to have knives from all over the world but not a single Bbritish one, which is sad, really.

      You are like me. I'm trying to get a traditional knife from around the world. I still have many to get myself.
