00:01:11
echo_blades

00:01:23
echo_blades
That's not my name. My name is not Tyrell.
00:01:24
Denis Tyrell

Monterey Weekend and Blade Show Prep
00:01:37
echo_blades
my God, it is the fucking best.
00:01:39
Denis Tyrell
i want i want to take them by the shoulders and like, if i my name was John, would I call it John Knifeworks? No. So why do you think i would use my first name?
00:01:54
echo_blades
That's fucking great. But yeah, um i have a very good talent of not allowing myself to get excited prematurely in well, in most other areas, except the important one, but yeah.
00:02:10
Denis Tyrell
We're like, what?
00:02:11
echo_blades
Yeah. Yeah.
00:02:13
Denis Tyrell
That is a total lie. That is a bald-faced lie. You get excited about everything beforehand.
00:02:17
echo_blades
No.
00:02:20
echo_blades
I don't know if you're super loud or if it's me. I'm going turn you down just a little bit in my head. um Beforehand, yes. But leading up to it, my life is like a series of milestones that I look forward to to get me through all of the crap.
00:02:32
Denis Tyrell
Uh-huh.
00:02:35
echo_blades
And if I was to get too excited and...
00:02:46
Denis Tyrell
I'm
00:02:46
echo_blades
I want to say it, but I don't want to say it though.
00:02:48
echo_blades
So I feel like I'm just trying to, to filter myself here, get excited too early. Then, uh, yeah, it won't, uh,
00:02:53
Denis Tyrell
between the lines. Okay.
00:02:58
echo_blades
it won't, uh, it won't do the justice.
00:02:59
Denis Tyrell
i'm between the lines
00:03:02
echo_blades
It won't feel as good. You know what I'm saying? Like it'd be ruined. No, this is a family show. Yeah. But ah so now I'm, I am now one. what Yeah. I said it's the day before the day before we leave. So I'm getting fired up.
00:03:18
echo_blades
I'm getting in the, in the mode.
00:03:20
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, me too.
00:03:20
echo_blades
So.
00:03:21
Denis Tyrell
I'm excited. I'm excited. But it was my anniversary weekend and, um, spent the weekend in Monterey and, uh, it was great. It was great to unplug, not think about knives for the weekend. Uh, I mean, I say the weekend we left Sunday morning, we did an overnight and we're recording Monday. So we came back today, but, um, it was really good. The weather was perfect.
00:03:48
Denis Tyrell
Um, it It was nice to step away right before Blade Show and not think about it and be ready to go.
00:03:57
echo_blades
Yeah, that's gotta be cool.
00:03:58
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:03:58
echo_blades
um I love
Considering Monterey Living
00:03:59
echo_blades
that place. And there, there was the very large chance that we were going to look into buying in that area, but I just, my, yeah, I just, my, my, our career, our jobs and stuff, it just would, it it wouldn't work out, but love the area.
00:04:00
Denis Tyrell
i a
00:04:07
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. We look every time we go.
00:04:18
echo_blades
It's beautiful. The weather's perfect for me.
00:04:21
Denis Tyrell
It is, Monterey is my, probably my favorite city in California.
00:04:21
echo_blades
Um,
00:04:26
Denis Tyrell
Like, and I spent a lot of lot of time here from there, rather from diving and just, I just love Monterey.
00:04:27
echo_blades
Yeah, I get teased a lot.
00:04:36
echo_blades
Yeah, same.
00:04:36
Denis Tyrell
But we, we did, I know you're not a fan, but we, as soon as we got there, Kim wanted to go to, they have a brunch, a Sunday brunch at El Torito's. So we did this.
00:04:47
echo_blades
I... It's not that I'm not a fan. It's just a very old played out restaurant and there's not many of them left. And historically it's super white Mexican food.
00:04:55
Denis Tyrell
Right. And I, I totally agree with you, but as a brunch place, it was all you can drink mimosas.
00:05:06
Denis Tyrell
Uh, and the brunch was amazing. And the, okay. I am a sucker for that. What is it? Tomolito, the, the corn, the sweet corn stuff.
00:05:17
Denis Tyrell
You know, they usually put a tiny little scoop on the end of your p plate. You know what I'm talking about? It's like, it's like the sweet corn masa stuff.
00:05:21
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:05:24
Denis Tyrell
Um,
00:05:25
echo_blades

00:05:28
echo_blades
I just don't know anybody that actually like has a thing for it.
00:05:31
Denis Tyrell
we both love it. So I'm like putting it on my plate with like a, you know, it's supposed to be like a little melon scooper. I'm using like a fucking soup ladle. probably ate... i probably ate
00:05:42
echo_blades

00:13:25
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:13:27
Denis Tyrell
If you guys need a hammer, go check out Frank. I'm sure he'll be walking around. He'll be the the dapper gentleman walking around, probably with a hammer in his waist.

um But if you need a hammer, go check out Two Bastards Texas Smithian Supplies ah for all your hammer needs, whether they're straight, cross, curvy, crisscross, you name it. He'll get you a fat peen.

you might have to buy the fat penis. Yeah. But because his shirt is grand to have one of them fat peens in your hand for sure.
00:14:11
Denis Tyrell
ah yeah You know, this year, um i think I've never heard of it before.
00:14:11
echo_blades
Oh,
00:14:17
Denis Tyrell
So i'm assuming it's the first year that they're doing the arts in metal show. That is the day before. I think it's Wednesday, Thursday, if I'm not mistaken.
00:14:29
Denis Tyrell
Have you heard of this? The Arts and Metal Show?
00:14:31
echo_blades
Nope, no clue.
00:14:32
Denis Tyrell
No. Oh.
00:14:33
echo_blades
Nope, no clue.
00:14:34
Denis Tyrell
um Arts and Metal Show 2026.
00:14:40
Denis Tyrell
um Oh, no. It takes place on June 4th, which is, that's Thursday, yeah. From 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. Oh, it's Thursday night. I didn't know that.
00:14:53
Denis Tyrell
I thought it was during the day. Yeah, it's at the Waverly. Um, the admission is $250 though.
00:15:00
echo_blades
Will not be there.
00:15:03
Denis Tyrell
I'd love to go, uh, that's a little pricey and those are for collector passes. so I guess they're really catering and focusing this on knife collectors.
00:15:14
Denis Tyrell
Um, and this is an invite only, I know, um, uh, Jean-Pierre Pauvin, he, cause I, that's what I keep seeing his, that he'll be at the, uh, arts and, and metal show, um, at the Waverly.
00:15:28
Denis Tyrell
But that's an interesting thing. If you're looking to do something Thursday night from six to 10, um, yeah, you can check that out. So yeah, it looks like there'll be some, yeah it kind of reminds me of, um,
00:15:42
Denis Tyrell
the, um, uh, the art knife invitational. It seems very similar to that. The one in, uh, in Vegas, obviously this is a much shorter show from six to 10, but, um, yeah, uh, access to knife maker lotteries and food and drinks.
00:16:01
Denis Tyrell
I'm sure food and drinks are included. Um, yeah, check it out, but,
00:16:08
echo_blades
I'm checking out the exhibitor.
00:16:11
Denis Tyrell
Anything else you're dying to see at the show?
00:16:15
echo_blades
I haven't really, uh, actually i got super pumped. I saw a couple of random, um, things pop up in my feed about some new Spyderco folder drops and my beginner folder nerd fucking vibes went out.
00:16:28
Denis Tyrell
No, yeah.
00:16:34
echo_blades
I think I was texting Brent like, dude, did you see this? and of course he did and um yeah so i was uh surprised to be pumped about that um for whatever reason because i haven't wanted or looked at ah like a production folder in a long time but making some pretty cool ones um but yeah i i mean just the the standard cast and um
00:17:03
echo_blades
Coming soon, coming soon. Yeah, I
Spyderco Folder Excitement
00:17:06
echo_blades

Denis Tyrell
It's supposed to rain on Sunday, but Thursday, Friday, yeah. Thursday, Friday, Saturday, all high ah mid eighties. And then it drops to 80 on Sunday. So not crazy.
00:20:23
Denis Tyrell
Humidity, 86% right now. So, uh, but it's raining there, uh, tomorrow. So, but, uh, we're not used to that humidity.
00:20:36
echo_blades
Yeah, that's for sure.
00:20:37
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, but that's all right. So that'll be like probably mid seventies when we're outside hanging out at night. So that's pretty good. That's doable. It's not, uh, you know, 4,000 degrees like, uh, the surface of the sun, but, um, yeah.
00:20:59
Denis Tyrell
Jared, what are you looking at?

echo_blades
whoo
00:21:08
echo_blades
Oh, no, I'm good. All right.
00:21:10
Denis Tyrell
Could be worse. Could be worse.
00:21:13
echo_blades
No, no, it's good. It's good. I don't even have to go outside. That's the cool thing. I don't have to walk anywhere. I stay inside the building all day long.
00:21:23
Denis Tyrell
Brent and I were talking about dinner um Thursday. like We might just door dash it or something. i really i' The less we have to leave, the better, I think. I'm just not...
00:21:35
Denis Tyrell
You know, going out and getting dinner at Blade Show is such a pain in the ass because there's so many people around there that it would be nice just to order something. Not Thursday, Friday.
00:21:46
echo_blades
Yeah, I think we got to go to... Yeah. And Saturday. We got all kinds of fucking dinners to eat. I'm fucking stoked.
00:21:53
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, Friday, Saturday is the, yeah both of them. So we'll figure it out. We'll figure it out. Got to make sure that boy is fed, you know. he's Parker eats like a like a horse now. so But how was your week other than being sick?
00:22:16
echo_blades
My ye man dude, that was rough. That was rough. I left um on whenever that was. It feels like it was a long time ago now because I've already recovered. But I think the Wednesday after the last show I did.
00:22:35
echo_blades
I got up and anyway, I spent like six hours driving. Had to drive from here to the office to Half Moon Bay. Had a meeting and then from Half Moon Bay to Sacramento to catch a flight to LA.
00:22:47
echo_blades
Went to LA, which... Or Huntington Beach, anyways. um Drove around all day the next day. Worked. I actually went to an A's game and at the Anaheim Stadium.
00:23:00
echo_blades
the The A's were playing the Angels, which was pretty cool because I ain't given...
00:23:01
Denis Tyrell
Oh, yeah.
00:23:06
echo_blades
John Fisher, any of my money ever again. So it was kind of cool to see them, um, and, go to a stadium that I haven't been to. Um, so that was pretty cool. Um, and then yeah, I flew back Friday night, Saturday, i golfed and then I had a half a day in the shop.
00:23:29
echo_blades
And then that night I woke, uh, as I was going to sleep, it was, it was KO and I spent Sunday, monday
00:23:39
echo_blades
yeah, no well, yeah, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, fucking basically down, um, sleeping pretty much the entire time, so that was pretty shitty, man, but that, that yeah, that put a big damper on what I was hoping to, hoping to do, but, um, for, for making anyways, um, but it was cool, I got a lot of rest, which is the only way that I get that, um, normally is when, when I get sick like that, otherwise I'm,
00:24:10
echo_blades
pretty much burning the candle on both ends all the time. So,
Pride in Son's Graduation
00:24:14
echo_blades
um, feel rejuvenated and, uh, all that good stuff. Um, I am not a fan of SoCal.
00:24:20
Denis Tyrell
Good.
00:24:22
echo_blades
I know I've said that many times, but and it is, it's just, well, I mean, then I got the fricking SoCal fricking him, but, um, yeah, it's just,
00:24:25
Denis Tyrell
What happened this time?
00:24:35
echo_blades
It's just different, man. I'm just from the Bay. I'm just this. i'm I'm just this is this is what I like. The weather is beautiful, though. I will. I will say that weather was fucking perfect. It was like 75, 78.
00:24:49
echo_blades
But yeah, the whole vibe down there is just not not me. It's not absolutely horrible, but it's pretty gross. It's it's pretty gross.
00:24:55
Denis Tyrell
Oh, yeah. I'm agreeing with you.
00:24:58
echo_blades
Yeah. I mean, because i mean it's it's not, yeah but it's bad.
00:25:00
Denis Tyrell
It's... a
00:25:03
echo_blades
like It's just not my my deal. I would never live there. That's just hands down. um I'm glad I'm from...
00:25:10
Denis Tyrell
Maybe Orange County, but not...
00:25:14
echo_blades
Even there.
00:25:14
Denis Tyrell
and San Diego's all right, Orange.
00:25:16
echo_blades
Newport Beach is nice. No, San Diego is a different animal.
00:25:20
Denis Tyrell
Well, I mean, when you say Southern California to lay people, they're still going to think San Diego is part of Southern California.
00:25:27
echo_blades
I don't even think they know it's even more. So San Diego is like Mexico. Damn near. But yeah. ah Yeah. So that' that's that's that. um And then came back and lot of stuff going on at work. It's just, been it's been, it's been a lot.
00:25:46
echo_blades
We're remodeling the office. um And that happened Thursday. We had to move. the, that room into a smaller room and they, to, um, have some it t work get done. And then today we had people put it in cubicles.
00:26:06
echo_blades
Um, and tomorrow I get to go back and put my fucking office together and try to get ready. And all the while I'm trying to prepare to leave for a pretty long stint. So it's, there's a lot.
00:26:21
echo_blades
Um, but, and then,
00:26:27
echo_blades
I have the amazing, um i mean, you yeah i I was listening to you talk about how excited you are to see Parker.
00:26:39
Denis Tyrell
Mm-hmm.
00:26:41
echo_blades
Right. And, um, the, uh, and my son is here. Right. And, but anyways, he, he graduates high school tomorrow and, um i am so filled with pride.
00:27:02
echo_blades
Like I'm, I'm kind of tearing up. Like I, I can't even explain it. Like I'm trying, I have not allowed myself to even go down the road yet to kind of think about that.
00:27:11
Denis Tyrell
you
00:27:13
echo_blades
Um, but yeah how, how proud I am of him and, um, like the work that he's done, you know, cause he's, uh, he's very much like his dad.
00:27:25
echo_blades
School wasn't easy for him. Not a dumb, dumb at all. Sharp kid, uh, just school and all that stuff. But to have him, you know, take the, the paths that he had to take and to do what he has to do. And to finally, uh, see the, you know, the, the goal achieved at the end of the road, I am extremely looking forward to tomorrow, um, to celebrate him and, uh,
00:27:48
echo_blades
you know I love you, son. I am extremely
Reflecting on Parenting Milestones
00:27:50
echo_blades
proud of you. And i'm I'm very excited and so pumped up for him to do whatever the hell he he's going to do. um Because,
00:27:58
Denis Tyrell
That's awesome.
00:27:59
echo_blades
yeah, it's it's ah yeah hard. I don't even want to talk about it anymore. Yeah. But because, yeah, i he's he's a special, special kid.
00:28:05
Denis Tyrell
I
00:28:10
echo_blades
And, you know, it's still it's that it's he's the youngest. This is this marks.
00:28:13
Denis Tyrell
was going say he's the last one.
00:28:14
echo_blades
Yeah, this marks the end of ah of that chapter in our lives, you know.
00:28:15
Denis Tyrell
Okay.
00:28:20
echo_blades
um it's kind of hard to for me anyways to to think about it because i have two two older daughters um and uh you know pretty much my entire adult life since i was like 19 and a half has just been this family you know and the kids and So it's, it's a, it's a, yeah, it's a strange feeling when I, when I let myself go there, I start to like, Oh God.
00:28:49
echo_blades
Um, but yeah. So looking forward to that. Um, and man, dude, they don't fucking, he goes to a smaller, smaller school anyways, but, uh, they don't, they don't give out a lot of tickets for, for people, for your family.
00:29:05
Denis Tyrell
No.
00:29:08
Denis Tyrell
Even the big schools.
00:29:09
echo_blades
Um,
00:29:10
Denis Tyrell
I think the big schools, it's even worse.
00:29:13
echo_blades
Yeah, maybe. i don't I don't know. I haven't... Yeah. it It was interesting. You feel like you're fucking playing... I don't know. You're going to piss someone off because someone's not going.
00:29:25
Denis Tyrell
What'd you get for?
00:29:27
echo_blades
and I don't... I think we got... I think it's six.
00:29:32
Denis Tyrell
Okay, that's not bad
00:29:32
echo_blades
think it's six. Yeah. But I could be wrong, too. I didn't count. So... But um yeah, so that that's that's happening. But yeah, it's it's that's a weird deal that they do.
00:29:46
echo_blades
um Yeah, and then this weekend I...
00:29:48
Denis Tyrell
bad.
00:29:49
echo_blades
Go ahead.
00:29:50
Denis Tyrell
Is it an outdoor ceremony?
00:29:53
echo_blades
No, this one is going to be indoors.
00:29:54
Denis Tyrell
Oh, that's good. Cause my, um, when we went to my son Logan's, it was at like Livermore high and it's like outside in the bleachers and the fucking bleeding sun.
00:30:08
Denis Tyrell
When we did it, uh, I was ready to die.
00:30:11
echo_blades
I've been to three or four graduations out this way and they literally have like medical staff on, on board.
00:30:20
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:30:20
echo_blades
Cause it's some days.
00:30:20
Denis Tyrell
It's crazy. Especially the kids in black.
00:30:21
echo_blades
Yeah. Yeah. It's a lot. It gets hot as shit. and Some of these are yeah like 100 degrees. And yeah yeah, it's a little crazy there. But no, this one's indoors.
00:30:34
echo_blades
And he goes to a smaller school. so But I guess that the the high school they did, they renovated it and just made a new auditorium.
00:30:36
Denis Tyrell
yeah
00:30:40
echo_blades
So they're going to do it in there. So that's cool.
00:30:42
Denis Tyrell
When for Parker's, um, ah Navy graduation, they actually have guys that just walk between the aisles to make sure that nobody passes out. Like that's what they're doing. They're looking at people to make sure that no one's passing out.
00:30:58
Denis Tyrell
Like the, the sailors that are standing there.
00:31:00
echo_blades
during the summer.
00:31:01
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:31:03
echo_blades
You almost froze to death on his, right?
00:31:03
Denis Tyrell
That's pretty crazy. No, it's indoors.
00:31:07
echo_blades
Oh, that one was indoors.
00:31:08
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, the the Navy one's always indoors. It's just that they're standing for so long and they've you know they've been up for already like five hours.
00:31:16
echo_blades
Oh, for the guys.
00:31:16
Denis Tyrell
a
00:31:17
echo_blades
all Oh, I gotcha.
00:31:18
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, yeah, the the guys that are standing there, like the the sailors, during the graduation.
00:31:23
echo_blades
Yeah. yeah
00:31:24
Denis Tyrell
So not the not the attendees.
00:31:25
echo_blades
Gotcha. Oh, gotcha.
00:31:28
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:31:29
echo_blades
Cool.
00:31:30
Denis Tyrell
Well, that's good. a Does he know what he's going to do in the fall or is he still thinking about that? Yeah. and
00:31:36
echo_blades
Yeah, he's still got some decisions to make. He's probably going to do a ah stint at the a local college here and then figure some stuff out.
00:31:46
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:31:48
echo_blades
But...
00:31:48
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:31:50
echo_blades
All, all good. First things first, get them through here. Uh, that was our, our main goal and, uh, that mission accomplished there. Um, looking at his cap and gown stuff right here next to me.
00:32:02
echo_blades
Um, so, uh, we'll play like that.
00:32:04
Denis Tyrell
Nice.
00:32:06
echo_blades
Hopefully he'll go play golf somewhere. That'd be cool.
00:32:10
Denis Tyrell
ah Golf scholarship.
00:32:12
echo_blades
ah Yeah. Yeah. yeah tough, tough though. 10 years ago, that that was like an easy thing. If you were semi-decent ah at golf, you could get a scholarship somewhere fairly easy.
00:32:22
Denis Tyrell
Oh, I imagine the competition's brutal. Kids coming out as scratch golfers or something.
00:32:26
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:32:29
echo_blades
Yeah, I mean, he's a fucking like a six or a seven right now.
00:32:29
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:32:33
echo_blades
he's He's gone like ridiculously good here over the past eight months or nine months, whatever it's been. Um, but yeah, he would get his ass handed to him right now. So he'd have to lock in and fully do that.
00:32:48
echo_blades
So we'll see.
00:32:49
Denis Tyrell
Hmm.
00:32:50
echo_blades
Um, but yeah. And then, uh, yeah, through all that crap, I, uh, I made some time this weekend and, and ah you know what, Dennis, apparently I can make a knife in a couple days.
00:33:02
Denis Tyrell
I knew
Knife-Making Achievement in Two Days
00:33:03
Denis Tyrell
it.
00:33:04
echo_blades
Apparently I can, apparently I can.
00:33:04
Denis Tyrell
Slacker.
00:33:07
echo_blades
So,
00:33:07
Denis Tyrell
I told you all along. It can't be done.
00:33:09
echo_blades
Yeah. It can be done. Yeah. I ground out. I did the whole fucking thing.
00:33:14
Denis Tyrell
this is like you started from scratch instead of doing one of the hundred knives you already have profiled.
00:33:15
echo_blades
Use the shit out.
00:33:19
Denis Tyrell
You started again.
00:33:20
echo_blades
Yeah. Yeah. I don't know what it is, but the, the, yeah, I have a bunch of, like I, okay. Okay. I'm not the best decision maker in the world.
00:33:31
echo_blades
Not the best planner. I suffer from lack of organization. i have all these fucking things. Right. But the weeks before I was pretty optimistic that I was going to have that three day chunk to, to do some things.
00:33:44
echo_blades
And I planned on going to see you. i had some hidden tank stuff that I just needed to get the guard thing kind of fit up. And, um, I have a lot of knives really fucking close, but when it was just, when I knew it was just going to be me, I was just like, well fuck, I'm just going to,
00:33:54
Denis Tyrell
Bye.
00:33:59
echo_blades
And I have some orders too that, you know, it it was some decisions to make. So I, uh, I just grabbed an intrepid grounded out, you know, the it's mechanical connection, gulsel bolts, uh, you know, so a lot of the process are simplified for me.
00:34:14
echo_blades
Um, and, uh, yeah, so i just knocked it out, but, uh, I told my wife, I was like, apparently I can't make a knife. two days. She's like, yeah, you've done it before. And I'm like, yeah, well, apparently I can not make one in four months though. So you've done that before. was like, Hey, who's side are you on here?
00:34:32
echo_blades
Um, but yeah. And then I just unknowingly, ah when I was looking at, uh, handle material, um, I grabbed a piece of a rag micarta, just a random piece that i I had bought at a blade show once in a while.
00:34:48
echo_blades
And I didn't even really think about it. And um then I, you know, got it all prepped up and um it was really cool piece. It's like some, like, I, it's still to me, the, the, the vision that you have of, of a handle material,
00:35:08
echo_blades
before you finish it out like sometimes like i can get close to what i think it's going to be most of the time it always wows me but fuck dude i was completely wrong with this it was like ah and a piece of army camo rag micarta really bright greens like like um like the the old school army camouflage
00:35:11
Denis Tyrell
Hmm.
00:35:31
Denis Tyrell
yeah like like ammo can green.
00:35:34
echo_blades
Yeah. Yeah. um And the the name of that is completely escaping me right now. I'm going to get fired. um But yeah, that shit finished out way darker and way cooler than I imagined. um But yeah, after I started getting with it, then i I started remembering apparently people struggle with trying to finish out my Carta.
00:35:56
echo_blades
And I just I haven't had that experience.
00:35:58
Denis Tyrell
I just don't like it.
00:35:59
echo_blades
definite It doesn't bother me at all.
00:36:01
Denis Tyrell
It's not like a struggle. I just don't. i don't like i don't like the look of it. i don't It's just not my thing.
00:36:07
echo_blades
Yeah. I don't know. Did you look at this one? I'll show it to you when you get it. It does not, it does not look like a standard, uh, my card into me. It fucking really cool. So, um, yeah, but I just plowed right through it and got it all done. I, uh, I did, I knew I was going to, um, stonewash it.
00:36:25
echo_blades
Um, cause didn't want to fuck around with the hand sanding, but, um, so I used the Gator heavy, uh, first time I've, I used that. Um, and,
00:36:35
Denis Tyrell
but What's the steel in it?
00:36:37
echo_blades
ADCR V2. Yeah.
00:36:41
echo_blades
So, um, yeah, I just, so I wanted it dark and then as dark as the handles came out too, I was, uh, um, that that's what I was going to try to go for anyway. So, um, but then yeah, stonewashed it and whatever rocks I got in my little homemade jig, like I literally have a plastic jug, like Yay tall.
00:37:03
echo_blades
And I remember right when I first started, I went around the neighborhood and just like started grabbing rocks out of fucking neighbor's yards.
00:37:03
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:37:10
echo_blades
And it's like a, it's like a random combo of flat, flat rocks, round rocks, sharp rocks. But, um, it really, I, I dig the, the finish that it, it comes out with on, on the things that I stonewash. It's not like it's a little unique. So, um, that was pretty cool.
00:37:28
echo_blades
My dog is dreaming.
00:37:28
Denis Tyrell
Where is it?
00:37:30
echo_blades
Uh, it's in the other room.

Denis Tyrell
it looks good.
00:38:13
Denis Tyrell
Didn't you already see that?
00:38:13
echo_blades
So,
00:38:15
echo_blades
I did. Yeah. But she wanted to see it.
00:38:16
Denis Tyrell
Oh, okay.
00:38:16
echo_blades
She wanted me to take her. So, um, that was cool. That was a really good afternoon. can spend, go watch that movie with, with my mom and hang out. Um, so even had time for that.
00:38:27
echo_blades
So it was pretty cool.
00:38:28
Denis Tyrell
Nice.
00:38:30
echo_blades
I was, uh, happy, happy to not come empty handed at least.
00:38:38
Denis Tyrell
Cool.
00:38:38
echo_blades
That was going to bum me out. In reality, that was going to bum me out.
00:38:41
Denis Tyrell
What, not going to blade trail with a at least one knife?
00:38:44
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:38:46
echo_blades
I was trying to play like I didn't give a shit, but I really did. But I used...
00:38:50
Denis Tyrell
Even, even part, even Parker has a knife on the table. So you would have felt really bad.
00:38:55
echo_blades
No, that wouldn't bother me at all. It would have been more just because I didn't do anything. Yeah. Having so many things like... as close as they are. That was a bummer. But, uh, yeah, I use the shit out of my Ameribraid fastback two by 72.
00:39:09
Denis Tyrell
Nice.
00:39:09
echo_blades
Um, that's absolutely love that machine.
00:39:12
echo_blades
Um, didn't, didn't, uh, actually i did use the, uh, the hyper disc as well. But, um, you're in the market for a new grinder, go check out Ameribraid, americabraid.com. You can use a discount code triple T 10 for 10% off of accessories and the code TTT for discount on machines as well.
00:39:30
echo_blades
Get yourself the best grinder. on the market powerhouse thing is awesome tracks like a dream. Um, the, am learning that that rest is fucking awesome.
00:39:44
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, it's, I love, love the rest.
00:39:44
echo_blades
Uh, yeah, it, it does everything. i didn't even, yeah i did use my, other, um, the, uh, I can't remember what the fuck I called it.
00:39:55
echo_blades
The one Jeff and I made though. Um, I have that set up on the, on the small wheel thing, but, uh, yeah, other than that, it was just all, well,
00:40:01
Denis Tyrell
the The fact that it's one lever, lever, whatever you want to call it, one handle to tighten it. and position it. You don't have to mess with like multiple handles. It does angles. It does every single angle because the thing will flip right over. So, uh,
00:40:17
echo_blades
Did you know or do you use the little set screw on the bottom of the ah of the rest that sets it back to zero every time?
00:40:27
Denis Tyrell
no, i don't even think mine has that.
00:40:29
echo_blades
It does. Yeah, there's a set screw on the underneath that you can...
00:40:33
Denis Tyrell
Really?
00:40:34
echo_blades
Yeah, you lock the motherfucker in, ah zeroed out, centered, all 90 degrees, squared up, and you hit this ah tighten the set screw on the bottom of it, and it just locks it in. I don't ever have to fucking zero that bitch out anymore.
00:40:47
Denis Tyrell
Oh, he might have just made my day. I've never seen it.
00:40:47
echo_blades
It goes right back to fucking...
00:40:51
echo_blades
Oh, dude, it is so subtly awesome fucking, one of the coolest fucking features, and it's so simple, not like over you know thought about or dramatized or...
00:41:02
echo_blades
you know like And I've never even heard anybody yeah talk about it. i um
00:41:07
Denis Tyrell
have never even knew it was there.
00:41:10
echo_blades
I randomly, when I was putting the fucker together, I watched a super old ass video that Eric did about putting it together. And in a very quick second, as I was you know looking what I needed to do, the audio was running in my ear and I heard him say something.
00:41:26
echo_blades
Yeah. And a lot of people don't know, but there's a little set screw there. And I was like, mother. I went and checked that and sure shit, it was there. So yeah, you got to go, go lock that thing in.
00:41:33
Denis Tyrell
Man, yeah. but I've said before on the podcast, one of my pet peeves is I feel like I am re-squaring my rest to the platen like every single time.
00:41:44
Denis Tyrell
So that would be awesome.
00:41:46
echo_blades
Yeah. Yeah. It's really cool. And I've, I took it from, you know, it to 60 to fuck.
00:41:49
Denis Tyrell
Okay.
00:41:51
echo_blades
I think I've been doing 80, close to 70 or 80 on something on the swedge. And,
Social Media Break and Mental Health
00:41:57
echo_blades
uh, I was like, fuck. Now I got to recenter it because I'm always looking for a reason to be annoyed about, you know, these amazing machines that do everything for us.
00:42:07
echo_blades
But yeah. And then I just, i just said, fuck. And I slapped it back and then I, you know, squared it, chewed it up with the, with the angle, right angle thing. And yeah, it was right back to zero. I was like, fuck yeah, dude.
00:42:17
echo_blades
That awesome.
00:42:18
Denis Tyrell
wow okay you're gonna you're gonna make me go look at that tomorrow now very cool so you're gonna make a sheath for that uh knife no
00:42:20
echo_blades
So yeah. Yeah. Very cool. Yeah. rico um
00:42:30
echo_blades
I don't know if I am not going to have time. There's no, no way. No. Like I said, I got tonight. i have work tomorrow. um Jared's graduation. That's really the kicker.
00:42:43
echo_blades
So I'm not doing anything tomorrow.
00:42:44
Denis Tyrell
right I did a new sheath video on Saturday.
00:42:46
echo_blades
said
00:42:47
Denis Tyrell
That's why I'm asking you.
00:42:49
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:42:50
Denis Tyrell
Did you watch it?
00:42:51
echo_blades
I did not. Dude. I, I, again, I know I've said this before, but I have taken a fantastic break off of social media. Um, and I mean, to the detriment of not even doing the post for our show, which I do apologize, but it has been very purposeful, um, and direct strategic type of planning on my part to, to limit myself to absolutely damn near zero social media. Um, and it, it was working for me today. it was the first post I've done and of my own shit and,
00:43:27
echo_blades
a very long time, feels like. And so i was on i was on it today. um But I remember why, you know, because you just get locked in and, you know, I either get super fucking inspired or fucking over the top irritated and mostly irritated.
00:43:44
echo_blades
So, you know, I mean, I love you guys, but man some of you motherfuckers just... Good God.
00:43:52
Denis Tyrell
Tell us what you really think.
00:43:52
echo_blades
Good God. Yeah. um I will. That's just what it is. Like got said, you either fucking absolutely inspiring the shit out of me and making me feel bad about like what I do. And then other guys, I'm just like, yeah okay, maybe I should.
00:44:07
echo_blades
Yeah. Maybe I shouldn't be fucking looking at this anymore. So, um, but yeah, that that's been a, been a thing. So I did not watch the, uh, the, the triple T either. So.
00:44:19
Denis Tyrell
I was, it wasn't triple T was a Saturday video on, um, a build video for the, the knife that I did two weeks ago. Uh, it was the sheath for that. It was the, how did you sheath with inlays?
00:44:29
echo_blades
Oh, okay.
00:44:34
Denis Tyrell
So ah all of the sheaths that I'm bringing a blade show all have inlays.
00:44:34
echo_blades
oh was a fancy one.
00:44:40
Denis Tyrell
And I'm a, um I'm a big, I don't mind doing the stamping on the leather, but, uh, I'm really growing to be a bigger fan of like, do just having inlays of like Cayman skin or ostrich skin or some other, leather on the, on the inlay, like in the, like the little window.
00:45:00
Denis Tyrell
it, it,
00:45:00
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:45:01
echo_blades
yeah
00:45:01
Denis Tyrell
it I'm really, that the sheaths I'm bringing to Blade Show, the nicest sheaths that I've made to date.
00:45:08
Denis Tyrell
So really happy with those.
00:45:08
echo_blades
Nice.
00:45:08
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:45:09
Denis Tyrell
So figured I'd show folks how how I do the inlays, which I was pretty happy with.
00:45:14
echo_blades
Cool.
00:45:17
Denis Tyrell
Of course, there's still room for improvement, but getting there. Getting there. well The sheaths are one thing I was not pleased with my knives. in the last year or two.
00:45:29
Denis Tyrell
So that's why I wanted to actually spent a lot on, um, inlay material at blade, Texas bought a bunch of that.
00:45:37
echo_blades
Gotcha.
00:45:37
Denis Tyrell
so
00:45:38
echo_blades
Yeah. So, but that one of the cool things about, you know, doing a post too, is getting, getting some comments and and feedback from people. ah You know, and I had two, two fucking hilarious ones. um Toby,
00:45:53
echo_blades
I think I said something like, you know, and and they said it couldn't be done. and then to Toby's like, he I think it was on Facebook or something, but he was like, well, ah obviously they whoever said that doesn't really know you.
00:45:58
Denis Tyrell
what did dobie say
00:46:10
echo_blades

00:46:40
echo_blades
He commented, ah somebody must have hacked this guy's account,
00:46:48
Denis Tyrell

00:46:48
echo_blades

00:46:56
echo_blades
Um, yeah, that was pretty cool. I love that. Um, but yeah, it was, it was, it was pretty cool. Uh, you can use the discount code triple T 10 for 10% off, uh, at grip tech composites and go hit them up with that discount code at the, uh, at the show too.

Tell them how I'm loving the ah the kiln. And um yeah, if you're in the market for a new heat treat oven and you're at Blade, you yeah you'd be a damn fool if you don't go check out Spencer and at the Even Eat booth.
00:48:07
Denis Tyrell
Definitely. Speaking of social media, you were nowhere to be found when I called you to do that post with Kim.
00:48:15
echo_blades
I was there. I called you right back. and And I accept your apology.
00:48:20

00:48:36
echo_blades
I called you. I called you right back. I was in the living room and then I was getting ready to go out into the shop and then i was like, oh, fuck, he's going to call. And then I got up to go see and I saw that you had missed.
00:48:48
echo_blades
I'd missed a call and I walked into the shop and and called you like a minute later. And then yeah I was no go. And I was like, some bitch.
00:48:53
Denis Tyrell
Because she's like, oh, come on, let's get this ah this this video done before we go to dinner. And, yeah.
00:49:01

echo_blades
Yeah.
00:49:16
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, it was fun.
00:49:17
echo_blades
i Yeah. Well, I think I got a tag in it. That's why.
00:49:19
Denis Tyrell
Oh, that's right.
00:49:20
echo_blades
But again, yeah, and I meant to get back to it and to and to share it and stuff.
00:49:20
Denis Tyrell

00:49:23
echo_blades
Yeah, it was pretty cool. Yeah, you looked pretty busy.
00:49:29
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. and ah Toby said, man, your shop looks so clean. I'm like, I haven't even cleaned it yet. What are you talking about?
00:49:35
echo_blades
He's a freak. Toby's a fucking freak.
00:49:37
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. My shop is clean. Unlike other people's Jared.
00:49:42
echo_blades
My mom. Came over and I was, I was buffing the handles on the, on that knife. And she was sitting down in there and talking to me while i was, cause I was like, Oh, you got to see, this is my favorite part. You know, I'm like, see what it is now. And watch, I don't know what it's going to look like. And to buff it out. I'm like, Oh my God, you look at that. And then she was sitting there and um she goes, wow, this is, this is the messiest I've seen this place. And I'm like, yeah, the fuck it changed in six months.
00:50:10
Denis Tyrell
Well, yeah, but you probably walk in there, put shit around, and haven't done anything, so it's probably dirtier.
00:50:11
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:50:17
echo_blades
It's yeah, it's messy for sure.
00:50:17
Denis Tyrell
Messier, I should say.
00:50:22
echo_blades
I did blow the the shit out of it, but the yeah, I have a lot of things on a lot of different places. Yeah, for sure.
00:50:33
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, I'm taking the leaf blower to the shop on Wednesday. No, tomorrow, actually.
00:50:37
echo_blades
That's what I did yeah yesterday. Bro, you know what I did that i I am not proud of myself with is that I go,
00:50:46
Denis Tyrell
Which thing?
00:50:49
echo_blades
Uh, I truly support. And if I'm in the groove of making, will wear my respirator.
00:51:01
echo_blades
But when I'm like, I'm only going to do this one thing, I'm only going to do this one thing. I'm ah in fuck. I was in there for a day and a half. And i ground the knife out and then I went to the handles and i you know, and I was hand sanding and I didn't put a fucking bro.
00:51:17
echo_blades
Yeah, that's not good.
00:51:19
Denis Tyrell
Did you have like Booger Central or what?
00:51:22
echo_blades
It just, I could feel in my, my breath, you know, like, and it's not, I mean, in in the short burst like that, like for a day or even that's not good, but I just want to rattle myself for not, for not doing that.
00:51:26
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, it's not good for you.
00:51:38
echo_blades
Cause, uh, yeah that that's that's just dumb at the end of the night i'm like lynn's like you didn't wear your mask and i'm like no and i got that fancy versaflow too but i was like wow that'll fuck my whole flow up if i gotta stop for 30 seconds to put that fucking space suit on that won't finish this knife
00:51:46
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:51:59
echo_blades
so uh
00:52:00
Denis Tyrell
So you're sacrificing your health to finish a knife. I get it.
00:52:04
echo_blades
yeah Dude, I am all about this. I am all about this. Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes to get it done.
00:52:10
Denis Tyrell
bullshit.
00:52:12
echo_blades
Oh,
00:52:14
Denis Tyrell
ah All right.
00:52:16
echo_blades
man.
00:52:16
Denis Tyrell
Let's do some maker spotlights and talk about guys that actually do finish knives.
00:52:17
echo_blades
I have one thing I want... Before we do that, though, man, I just anonymously just want to say that I m always amazed at how people can come find new ways to complain about anything.
00:52:40
echo_blades
And i don't want to give too much context behind this, but I am just currently experiencing a level of, it doesn't fucking matter what you do. Someone always has a way to turn it around and, and turn like it's not good enough or, you know, make it bad for themselves.
00:53:01
echo_blades
Um, and I just hope that,
00:53:02
Denis Tyrell
No, come on. Give me some context. Is it work? Personal?
00:53:05
echo_blades
and Yeah. Just say it's work.
00:53:07
Denis Tyrell
okay
00:53:07
echo_blades
Just say it's work. Yeah. <unk> It's just like, I, it just, it, it's absolutely mind blowing. Sometimes you just like, you would never think that this, this could be bad.
00:53:19
echo_blades
And you're just like, Oh my God, this motherfucker's throwing a goddamn bitch fit. And you got, and I'm like, Oh, My water's too wet, my boss says. And I fucking hate when I have to say that. when He says because he's he's said a handful of things here that I find myself regurgitating, like my dad. you know like And yeah, that's ah that's one of his famous things.
00:53:38
Denis Tyrell
Uh,
00:53:42
echo_blades
Oh, my water's too wet. My ice is too cold. like they will There is a way to complain about something, man. but um Before we move on to some positive, awesome shit, I wanted to get that little ah bitch fucking out.
00:53:56
Denis Tyrell
but okay. We have no idea what you're referring to, but,
00:53:58
echo_blades
that's all I feel better. I feel so much better. Thank you for that release.
00:54:03
Denis Tyrell
uh,
Blade Show Travel Plans
00:54:04
Denis Tyrell
are you looking forward to that flight, uh, to Atlanta?
00:54:08
echo_blades
Yeah, I am a hundred percent. And I fucking thought about it, looked it up and I saw that that seat is still available. I did not listen to the show by the way. Um, and, uh, for very strategic reasons, but, um,
00:54:23
echo_blades
Yeah. Somebody, I asked somebody, I'm like, cause it's not that much, but then I remember how much I actually paid for the ticket in the, in the first place.
00:54:32
Denis Tyrell
and Don't think about that.
00:54:35
echo_blades
And then I was like, Oh, it's just 300. Dude, I'm the king of this. Like anyways. Yeah. I understand the the process cause it doesn't feel like you're spending what you paid already.
00:54:44
Denis Tyrell
Yep.
00:54:45
echo_blades
Yeah. Um, given the time, but I could use that money for something way cooler. So.
00:54:51
Denis Tyrell
Oh, i'm I'm sure I could too, but...
00:54:52
echo_blades
I'll just, I'll split in the back. I'm just sitting in the back of the bus. If it was half that, no brainer, I would do it, but that's pretty good chunk. So I'll be fine.
00:55:01
Denis Tyrell
But I don't know, I'm ruined. ever since Ever since we did Italy and we had the the upgraded seats to Italy, now even Austria, we've got we've got us upgraded seats on the way there, and Kim's bugging me to get the upgraded ones on the way back, at least for the long leg.
00:55:18
echo_blades
It makes sense for that trip, but I'm not trying to take a fucking red eye and first class, like whatever.
00:55:25
Denis Tyrell
Oh, I am. I want to get a good night's sleep.
00:55:27
echo_blades
It doesn't. Yeah, I'm not sleeping regardless, so it doesn't matter.
00:55:32
Denis Tyrell
um' I could actually sleep in those because they recline enough that I could actually sleep.
00:55:38
echo_blades
Maybe, but I would hate to not find it.
00:55:40
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:55:40
echo_blades
Find out that I couldn't for that extra.
00:55:43
Denis Tyrell
Well, it's going to be like...
00:55:43
echo_blades
If it was a daytime flight, I would do it.
00:55:46
Denis Tyrell
It's going to still be dark by the time we land. um And it'll be like 2.30 in the morning, our time equivalent. So it won't it won't be that bad. It's going to be after...
00:56:00
Denis Tyrell
like four hours after that when we're gonna feel it we'll be eating breakfast
00:56:04
echo_blades
Yeah, I almost went fucking crazy last year. I remember that. I remember I had to convince you to go.
00:56:08
Denis Tyrell
it was the year before the year last year wasn't bad it was the year before
00:56:13
echo_blades
No, we I had to convince you that we can get an early check in. Last year and you were like, no, you can't. And I walked up there and I was like, look, it my husband has a buck room ready for us and I need to get some sleep.
00:56:27
echo_blades
And they were like, OK, yeah, there's probably a wait list. Yeah, we got in at like 1030 11. And I was up there taking a nap and you and Parker were going to have lunch or something like that.
00:56:33
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:56:38
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, but year before, you had a right bitch fit.
00:56:38
echo_blades
But you're right. It was the year before that I had the bitch. Yeah. Yeah, I do remember that. I was losing it. i was like, felt like I was fucking on a five day bender like the old days. I was seeing fucking clowns jump out at me.
00:56:53
echo_blades
yeah I gotta go.
00:56:57
echo_blades
That is right.
00:56:57
Denis Tyrell
Oh.
00:56:58
echo_blades
I do. I concede there. That was the year before.
00:57:01
Denis Tyrell
Yes. Uh, all right. So let's talk about some people that are gonna make knives. Um, I think both these people are gonna be at the blade show, of the two that I'm looking at, uh, for our maker spotlight. So
Spotlight on Tuna the Kingpin
00:57:15
Denis Tyrell

00:57:18
echo_blades

Um, and one last read, uh, if you guys are looking to sell your knives and maybe you're not going to a blade show or you are, and you want to get them out there early or sell what you got left after the show, you want to use the drop point.
01:01:41
Denis Tyrell
Uh, that free newsletter comes out every Thursday, goes to not only makers, but a ton of collectors and just guys that love knives. So, uh, get your stuff up on the drop point. It's free. Uh, so,
01:01:55
Denis Tyrell
You know, no throttling, no shadow bans, no guessing who actually sees your stuff when using social media. So get it out on a free newsletter that is an opt-in newsletter that people, you know, they're getting this because they want it. So go get your stuff up on the Drop Point.

Like the overhead banner is the only thing that didn't fit. And there's no reason that they made this thing like 36 inches long. So all I did was cut two of the pipes and then put wood dowel in them.

Denis Tyrell
so that I could just read, you know, anyway, basically cut them, uh, and then put, you know, rigged it up so I could like fit these in my suitcase. Cause that's important.
