We have some some pretty shitty things to talk about here, but let me just get this going on a good note. i would like to take this opportunity to say how proud of you From the bottom of my heart, I was so amazed to see you use that computer you carry around in your pocket.
00:01:58
echo_blades
Flip it out. Take a selfie in front of something and post it on the interwebs. Bro, I was beaming with pride.
00:02:08
echo_blades
I was like, holy shit. And then to top it off, you had the world's most beautiful sweatshirt on too as well.
00:02:10
Denis Tyrell

00:02:14
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, that's the only reason why you liked it. thought
00:02:17
echo_blades
That's the only reason why I stopped. I was like, oh, hey, look at it. Oh, oh hey. yeah it was a whole process. But no, seriously, dude.
00:02:24
Denis Tyrell
it was It was a journey.
00:02:26
echo_blades
I was like, ah holy shit. he he he took a He took a picture.
00:02:31
Denis Tyrell
I will admit that I stole the other three pictures from Kayla, and i ideal only the only picture I took was the selfie, but yeah.

Exploring Denver: From The Shining Hotel to the Zoo
00:02:40
echo_blades
huge, huge, huge shout out for you, buddy. That was pretty cool.
00:02:43
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:02:43
echo_blades
All right, I'm turning this.
00:02:44
Denis Tyrell
But it was cool.
00:02:44
echo_blades
Let's track for
00:02:45
Denis Tyrell
I went to Denver to visit the new grandkid who is, my God, the cutest kid ever. ah This kid, I don't know what's going on with the hair, but the hair is like, like, but like he had his...
00:03:00
echo_blades
can yeah I would love for everyone to understand what it means.
00:03:01
Denis Tyrell
like Like he had his finger, like i mean
00:03:04
echo_blades
but
00:03:04
Denis Tyrell
like like he like he stuck his finger in a light socket, like continuously, like his hair does not go down.
00:03:09
echo_blades
Oh.
00:03:12
Denis Tyrell
It's like up all the
00:03:13
echo_blades
so he's got a lot of hair and it's everywhere.
00:03:14
Denis Tyrell
A lot of hair and it looks like a, yeah, it's hilarious.
00:03:18
echo_blades
He's got long hair, don't care.
00:03:22
Denis Tyrell
ah But he's cute as a button, so it was cool to visit. um We went to the... Now I'm going to forget the name of it. this I was going to say Stewart stewart Hotel.
00:03:36
Denis Tyrell
I don't remember the name the hotel. It's the hotel that they filmed The Shining at. It starts with a Stuart something. Anyway, we went to that hotel. That's the picture that i posted and ah the hallway, you know, with the two scary little twin twin girls. And you've seen the movie, I'm assuming.
00:03:54
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. So, yeah, it was cool. in the In the movie, it looks like it's in the middle of nowhere. It's totally not in the middle of nowhere. There's like a whole town right beside it, which they don't show you in the movie. but
00:04:06
echo_blades
Was there a town there when they filmed it?
00:04:09
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:04:09
echo_blades
Or did they build around it since?
00:04:12
Denis Tyrell
I'm sure it's bigger now, but yeah.
00:04:15
echo_blades
Hmm.
00:04:16
Denis Tyrell
It was cool. We saw some elk. We saw some deer. We saw a shit ton of rabbits. There's all kinds of wildlife out there in Estes Park. So yeah, it was cool.
00:04:27
echo_blades
Awesome.
00:04:27
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, it was fun day. And then we went to the Denver Zoo and saw more animals and yeah, so it was good trip. How was, uh, um, it's not,
00:04:35
echo_blades
The Denver Zoo big?
00:04:39
echo_blades
Is it like SF Zoo or San Diego Zoo or is it just like Oakland Zoo?
00:04:43
Denis Tyrell
it's,
00:04:46
Denis Tyrell
yeah It's probably the size of maybe a little bit smaller than the San Diego
Knife-Making Challenges and Solutions
00:04:50
Denis Tyrell
Zoo. But it's it's it's a really nice zoo.
00:04:51
echo_blades
Oh, that's big.
00:04:52
Denis Tyrell
I mean, it's, yeah, it's got all, we we went at night, we did like this light show.
00:04:53
echo_blades
Hmm.
00:04:57
Denis Tyrell
So we only saw the animals for like an hour and a half. And then like everything is lit up in these big like scenes. And yeah, it was it was cool. This is more about that.
00:05:10
Denis Tyrell
But yeah, i wanted to i wanted to um go see our buddy Chris Lozacco of Elemental Forge. We were going to get together, but his wife had a ah girls night or something like that. So he was stuck ah at home with the kids and it was an hour and a half away and we were going to meet halfway and he couldn't get out of the house.
00:05:30
echo_blades
Gotcha.
00:05:30
Denis Tyrell
We will lie meet up on another time.
00:05:34
echo_blades
Cool. I'm glad you reached out.
00:05:35
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, how was your weekend?
00:05:38
echo_blades
My weekend was good. My weekend was all right. I did.
00:05:46
echo_blades
I had a good week. As far as making goes, I got out in the shop twice and then I spent, I think, some time in both days on the weekend.
00:05:57
echo_blades
But one night. I got out and i ground that Sanmai. us a stainless ani that we did.
00:06:05
Denis Tyrell
Oh, yeah. How'd that go?
00:06:07
echo_blades
Yeah. It was rough.
00:06:09
Denis Tyrell
What?
00:06:09
echo_blades
It was a rough,
00:06:11
Denis Tyrell
You mean like the he had to knock the rust off kind of?
00:06:13
echo_blades
just i mean a lot of rust like i started off really good and then switched hands and or switched you know switch sides um but yeah it it's definitely a don't do it you lose it gonna kind of deal no it takes a minute but um but and then i got to again you know using the uh
00:06:30
Denis Tyrell
it's not It's not like riding a bike.
00:06:39
echo_blades
The AmeriBarade just kicked ass, dude. i was You know what I'm really trying to to dial. Oh, here we go. Good transition into the the the video that Jeff Carey put out.
00:06:57
echo_blades
Absolutely just banger. That thing had me laughing. I'll tell you what.
00:07:03
Denis Tyrell
Why am I so fat in the video though? Come on, man.
00:07:05
echo_blades
It's just appropriate. It's just appropriate, Dennis. Yeah. You got it. I mean, how's that 7 a.m. retirement gym program going?
00:07:16
echo_blades
You are a little tanky, though. That was somebody asked me that, too. That doesn't know you. But anyways, um yeah, that was hilarious. And then what I was what I was.
00:07:30
echo_blades
what I've been trying to put together is, is the process to have the three.
00:07:35
Denis Tyrell
What you come up with?
00:07:35
echo_blades
And, um, I haven't, they're all really close together and I'm stumbling over my self and running out of room and blocking myself from things that, yeah my belts are in the back behind the other two grinders and now the, the other one's there.
00:07:35
Denis Tyrell
you would you come up with
00:07:51
echo_blades
So I got this like, It's good thing I did lose a little bit of weight because seven, eight months ago, there'd been no way in hell I was going to squeeze through to get back there. um But yeah, so I think I got to i gotta to do a pretty decent reorganizing of of those tools there.
00:08:12
Denis Tyrell
So I saw you're going to have vertical horizontal small wheel.
00:08:16
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:08:18
Denis Tyrell
Like well what's the process going?
00:08:18
echo_blades
Exactly it. That's it.
00:08:20
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:08:21
echo_blades
That's what I'm doing. So then I was... When I was grinding, the the the reason why I did end up grinding the sand in my billet was because the air went out in my shop again.
00:08:33
echo_blades
I had a, another leak and, um, the last time it happened, Jeff and I, we used all of the, the right size fittings to make the last repair.
00:08:47
echo_blades
So I was kind of shit out of luck. That's why I i called you and was like, Hey man, um i may need to break into your your shop this weekend to use the, ah um, to use your stuff for a minute. But, um,
00:09:01
echo_blades
So that was the reason why I did it because the grinder that I want to use the small wheel on was down because I have the the pneumatic tensioning for the grinder that Jeff and I did.
00:09:15
echo_blades
And yeah, so if you don't have air, it doesn't work. It's the only downside.
00:09:20
Denis Tyrell
Mm-hmm.
00:09:20
echo_blades
So, but anyways, that's why I ended up grinding because I've been
00:09:29
echo_blades
making sure I get in there
Preparing for Blade Show and Knife-Making Techniques
00:09:30
echo_blades
into the shop to do something.
00:09:30
Denis Tyrell
But you fix the air.
00:09:32
echo_blades
So, yeah, but we ended up fixing the air this weekend. So, um, I totally lost what I was saying. Um, yeah, that's why I started and it doing it. And then, um ended up getting that all set up. So yeah, it's going to be small wheel vertical and, and horizontal.
00:09:50
echo_blades
And i just got to rearrange some stuff. So that's going to be cool. Once that happens. Um, the really cool thing was, um, I had, uh, Jared did out some knives the week before, but the handles to get the choil and all that stuff kind of dialed in, uh, needed the small wheel and, um,
00:10:14
echo_blades
But Brent had printed me out some profiles of my knives and then with 3D printed them.
00:10:16
Denis Tyrell
Mm-hmm.
00:10:22
echo_blades
And he did the handles for them. And man, that I didn't realize what a freaking awesome thing that is. Because when you when you have a template, I always end up like when I start to profile or Jared things out, the they are they're always like scaled up.
00:10:42
echo_blades
I, they just keep getting like bigger and bigger and bigger, you know, just in scale. I mean, it's not like, you know, huge, but um so it was really cool.
00:10:49
Denis Tyrell
See, big knives are better. Just want big knives are better.
00:10:51
echo_blades
Huh? Well, I'm talking like just proportionately, like everything is is taller and you know so anyways, I took the the handles ah the printed handle and was able to go back to it and kind of true everything up and get it back down, dialed in and I'm a template kind of guy. Free, free hand, you know, where they say free flow or whatever. I tend to overkill everything. So was really good to have the template to go back to. I found it really useful.
00:11:21
echo_blades
So um if you have the ability, I suggest you try that or go find a friend that will do it for you because I
00:11:29
Denis Tyrell
ah Yeah, i'm I'm with you. I have, yeah as you you know, i have templates of all my knives, not all of them, but a good portion of them. And the handles that I use all the time, I have just little metal templates of those handles. And sometimes I pick and choose different handles for different knives.
00:11:46
echo_blades
huge huge huge, huge, huge, huge tool.
00:11:46
Denis Tyrell
So.
00:11:49
echo_blades
Um, and I just, I've always done it on paper. So, um, they don't stick very, you know, just the whole thing with, you know, doing paper.
00:11:58
Denis Tyrell
You can't draw around it. It's nice to be able to take a pen and draw around or or like a marker on steel and draw around it.
00:11:59
echo_blades
Yeah. Yeah, exactly.
00:12:04
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
00:12:04
echo_blades
Yeah. So that was really cool. I really, I really found that cool. So I got four knives all ready for, for heat treat. Probably do that tomorrow. Um, that the stainless is it's pretty much ground. I'll probably end up doing my normal thing and start hand sanding it and hate it and go back to the grinder a few more times. But
00:12:25
Denis Tyrell
What are you going to heat treat those on?
00:12:28
echo_blades
dude, I don't know if you've heard, but even heat kiln makes the most awesome heat treating ovens around in
00:12:37
Denis Tyrell
According to Jeff, I have five of them.
00:12:39
echo_blades
Yeah. Well, yeah. You remember those, you remember those days when we used to sit around that toaster oven and just, that was really cool. But yeah.
00:12:51
echo_blades
Even heat kilns, a family owned and operated company since 1948, building the highest quality heat treatment, heat treatment, heat treating ovens around. So go get yourself one, two, three, four. And one day you'll be in an AI video and somebody will say you got five.
00:13:07
echo_blades
And you still won't have enough. So, uh, yeah, but, um, uh, I needed the, uh, planned on doing that this weekend too, but I needed the air. Um, cause my quench plates are got the, uh, the air cool hooked up to the compressor to blow the air on them So, um, everything's up and running now.
00:13:28
echo_blades
So I'm ready to rock and roll on the, on
00:13:31
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, you're going to have some knives for a blade this year? You're bringing some knives?
00:13:34
echo_blades
Dude, I have it. I just, I just had this thought on my way into work is that my intent is to make a couple of knives for, um, some buddies of mine, uh, that I'm going fishing with in a couple of weeks.
00:13:50
echo_blades
And then I was like, just, just say, yeah,
00:13:52
Denis Tyrell
A couple weeks this year?
00:13:56
echo_blades
I, ben I, I'm in the shop. So, uh,
00:14:03
echo_blades
Problem is, if I make those, that trip is at the end of the month, is in two weeks like that, then that's going to leave me like a month to to get a Blade Show inventory too.
00:14:06
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. yeah
00:14:16
echo_blades
So, you know, although I feel motivated and locked in right now, you it's a lot of time to, yeah, I'm a little nervous.
00:14:26
Denis Tyrell
to get unmotivvated
00:14:27
echo_blades
Just say that. Yeah, I'm a little nervous that something's going to pop up. So, yeah. but may have to audible on that.
00:14:37
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, well, I think you should at least, here's my opinion. I think that stainless Sanmai and the um stainless Damascus, those those two I think you should finish for bloodshill.
00:14:51
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:14:53
Denis Tyrell
Everything else you can, whatever, muddle around with, but I really think you should get those ones finished.
00:14:55
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:14:58
Denis Tyrell
Because those will be some nice ones.
00:14:59
echo_blades
Yeah. You didn't, Yeah. know. I dipped the, uh, the stainless and, uh, I guess I gotta try the the Gator Max.
00:15:13
Denis Tyrell
For
00:15:14
echo_blades
The stainless and my.
00:15:16
Denis Tyrell
for stainless Sanmai, that one gets it a very, very short dip.
00:15:19
echo_blades
Yeah. How do you, how do you etch it?
00:15:23
Denis Tyrell
um That one, you...
00:15:24
echo_blades
Cause I, I dipped it super quick and I didn't get much transition or
00:15:25
Denis Tyrell
you
00:15:28
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, you you need about 60 seconds, but not more, because you'll start to pit the 416. So it's not like...
00:15:37
Denis Tyrell
so it's not like um you know, like an eight minute or anything like that. It's, it's not like that.
00:15:46
echo_blades
Yeah, I've never done one, so.
00:15:46
Denis Tyrell
I've never done the stainless Sanmai with um just Gator Piss. I've always used like a Ferric combo.
00:15:52
echo_blades
Okay.
00:15:54
Denis Tyrell
So I'm curious if, um if Gator Piss would, would be better for a stainless Sanmai.
00:16:00
echo_blades
Yeah. Anybody ever, uh, yeah.
00:16:01
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:16:03
echo_blades
Etched a, uh, stainless San. My hit me up. Let me know your process. I'm curious about that.
00:16:07
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:16:09
echo_blades
Don't trust Dennis after the VFD. Okay.
00:16:14
Denis Tyrell
I gotta tell you, after, like, I think it kicked in, like, well, I could not sleep in the hotel because the the bed was, like, sleeping on a rock. So I did not sleep very well. So I'm lying in bed thinking about, holy shit, it's April, whatever it was, 4th or 5th, whatever the date was.
00:16:34
Denis Tyrell
and i'm already stressing about okay i need i want to make this many knives it's already april i have exactly two months and so i was stressing about how much time i have left before blade show um so it's uh the the pressure is already kicking in yeah
00:16:52
echo_blades
Yeah, I started to feel it this morning too. Because I don't want to show up.
00:16:56
Denis Tyrell
i i got a good start on the damascus last week so uh
00:16:57
echo_blades
Okay.
00:17:00
Denis Tyrell
i mean I'm making a lot of the stuff I want to bring that I haven't already made is going to be all of the Kumai stuff. So i'm i'm trying to make I'm trying to make eight folders that are all Kumai folders.
00:17:15
Denis Tyrell
um So I made, i think it's some pretty cool Kumai. It'll be a ball bearing, which I haven't done in ages, ball bearing canister core.
00:17:29
Denis Tyrell
a ball bearing core, gradient, okay, ball bearing core, copper, four layers of gradient stack above that, and then a black outside.
00:17:42
Denis Tyrell
and And then probably laddered, just to give it some more. I think it's going to look really cool. I'll let you know in the next couple of days um ifff it how it turns out.
00:17:54
Denis Tyrell
So I'm excited about that one.
00:17:54
echo_blades
I,
00:17:55
Denis Tyrell
and It's going to be a big bar, and I'll be able to get probably eight folder blades out of it.
00:17:59
echo_blades
yeah, i had to have a, a come to Jesus talk with myself. Um, cause I was, uh, actually kind of bummed that, uh,
00:18:12
echo_blades
it's not that I forged to mask it's with you every time you do. Right. But it's, we used to do it a lot. And, uh, you were explaining it to me and tell me that you're forging.
00:18:23
echo_blades
And I was just, i had a little bit of jealous envy going on. Like I wanted to get out there and do it. And then i think I told you that. And I was like, well, you know, I probably have like four or five, six, seven bars of shit that we've done.
00:18:37
echo_blades
I got to get through.
00:18:38
Denis Tyrell
That's when we pulled out the this the stainless mask because I'm you got to use this.
00:18:39
echo_blades
Yeah, exactly. Yeah. So I'm good. going to stick with the, uh, for now anyways. Uh, but yeah, it's, it's such a good time to do.
00:18:55
echo_blades
I always enjoy it, but yeah, so I was kind of, I was kind of a little bummed that I missed that one.
00:19:01
Denis Tyrell
I did have a really fun time last week working on what I'm calling the shark tooth. That little...
00:19:09
echo_blades
Shark tooth. oha Oh, shark bait. Damn it.
00:19:12
Denis Tyrell
That shark bait.
00:19:12
echo_blades
That's what you should call it.
00:19:15
Denis Tyrell
The little key ring knife, the little key ring auto that I made. that um Mainly it was to to figure out the button auto mechanism, which I was really happy to have figured out and understand what I did wrong.
00:19:32
Denis Tyrell
But that thing actually ended up really cool. I still have to like do the final finish on it. But it definitely has that that
Personal Stories and Community Support
00:19:40
Denis Tyrell
fidget factor to it. Like it's really snappy and you hit the button and it flies. i actually had to change the spring because I used a stronger spring the very first time and I hit the button and the damn thing flew out of my hand. The spring was so strong.
00:19:52
echo_blades
Oh, wow. How long is the blade?
00:19:54
Denis Tyrell
Oh, it's like um like the cutting edge is maybe an inch.
00:20:01
echo_blades
That's it?
00:20:02
Denis Tyrell
Oh, yeah. It's really tiny. The whole thing closed is less than two inches.
00:20:11
Denis Tyrell
so uh it's i know yeah under two inches is is legal
00:20:11
echo_blades
What's California legal? That's a California legal auto. Yeah.
00:20:17
Denis Tyrell
is legal And I just wanted it to be something cool you could put on a keychain. um It's framed, like there's there's no liners, it's frames that I could make either out of Damascus. I could make the frames out of Damascus. I could make them out titanium. These were titanium.
00:20:35
Denis Tyrell
And then it's a tiny, I made it with a tiny little piece of Twist Damascus that I just happened to have in the drawer. um So it'll just be a cool little thing to use on you know, some little off cuts of Damascus.
00:20:50
Denis Tyrell
So, yeah, it was it's fun, and I'll see how how it turns out.
00:20:50
echo_blades
I thought the thing was really cool.
00:20:55
Denis Tyrell
and It was a good learning experience, but um maybe a couple of those folders that I make for Blade Show will be autos. I don't know yet. Depends how. I want to get the the ones that I need to get done done first, and then if I have some time to too were play around, I'll try to make an auto after.
00:21:18
echo_blades
I think that thing was pretty cool. I haven't had a chance to mess around with it, but it did look cool.
00:21:25
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Well, if you come over to this where we get together this weekend.
00:21:27

00:22:19
echo_blades
And ah so we went back and did it again. And so this happened like three or four times. And I'm like, bro, what is wrong with this guy? Like, gave him the email. Like, all you got to do is just, you know, put the email in.
00:22:32
echo_blades
And then he finally texted me or messaged me back and says,
00:22:39
echo_blades
here's the email address. Bro, echo blades dot C at Gmail auto corrected to enchiladas.

00:23:46
Denis Tyrell
it's probably that guy.

00:24:23
echo_blades
ah because everything's moving around so much. um and And the way I have my, my slosh bucket set up on, on the other ones is it's not like yours hooked onto the, to the things.
00:24:34
Denis Tyrell
Why
00:24:35
echo_blades
um So I had it sitting there and it was missing and dude, there, there was just metal shavings fricking everywhere. Like, and that went, I didn't realize how fucking it was until I forgot to turn the light off above my grinders.
00:24:50
echo_blades
And I walked out there in my socks and, And I was like, Oh Lord. to i was freak it It was an interesting situation.
00:25:00
Denis Tyrell
it's up?
00:25:01
echo_blades
They were just, uh, cause I was doing a lot of drilling for, um, for holes in the handles and stuff. So I had aluminum or ABL shaving drill shavings all on the floor, all the dust and stuff.
00:25:12
echo_blades
And I was just like, Oh my God, there's, if I walk in the, had to throw the socks away. Like if, if I walk back in the house with this, Lynn's going to kill me. Uh,
00:25:22
Denis Tyrell

00:26:32
echo_blades
That's not what it's called.
00:26:35
Denis Tyrell
The double ender.
00:26:37
echo_blades
yeah ah It's a double. Use your imagination.
00:26:41
Denis Tyrell
Double, double. I have not had a chance, but I probably will do some forging, some hand forging next week because I'm going to be making a hunter or a buoy.
00:26:43
echo_blades
and
00:26:53
Denis Tyrell
I haven't decided yet, but that will require some hand forging. So I'll definitely be picking up my two bastards hammers and swinging them around and, you know, giving them some love, showing the steel who's boss.
00:27:08
Denis Tyrell
ah So if you guys need a hammer, go check out Two Bastards Texas Smithian Supplies and tell them the boys at Triple t said go get one.

00:28:38
Denis Tyrell
Jared?
00:28:39
echo_blades
I hit the wrong button and the audio is full mega blast on Instagram. I was going to go check the ah dropout and I just got the shit scared out of me.
00:28:52
echo_blades
I couldn't stop it.
00:28:57
echo_blades
That was panic mode. oh I, ah yeah. I wonder if that comes through. it was like, oh, oh man, i was losing it.
00:29:05
Denis Tyrell
We didn't hear anything. it was just Jared with a goofy look on his face.
00:29:12
echo_blades
Oh yeah. That's good stuff.
00:29:15
Denis Tyrell
You know what um what I was playing with actually a
00:29:18
echo_blades
that This is a family show. Okay. it is a family show
00:29:25
Denis Tyrell
um Remember last last week I told you I was going to get my helper CJ to help me with some of the folders. And um I actually sent my the DXF files for the liners for those folders over to send, cut, send. And got them to um to cut them, which turned out to be a little complex because I wanted them to cut the lock bar.
00:29:49
Denis Tyrell
um it turns out you got to do a whole other process and bring them into another app and use a no curve cut but but um i did figure it out and i should be getting the first versions of those so i'm pretty excited that i won't have to uh do all that crap because all of the holes will be pre-drilled and i'll just have to do a final drill or ream on on those holes so that should make my folders go way quicker so i'm very excited about that We've got to get around to finishing yours too, by the way.
00:30:23
echo_blades
Agreed.
00:30:23
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. You know, maybe that's what we should do this weekend is work on your phone.
00:30:25
echo_blades
Agreed.
00:30:29
Denis Tyrell
No, no, no.
00:30:30
echo_blades
No, got get where some, some things not for me to do.
00:30:36
Denis Tyrell

echo_blades
That priority. That's all.
00:30:39
Denis Tyrell
Yes. All right. Get them done.
00:30:40
echo_blades
That's the only reason. Otherwise I'd be yes. Right up in there. What the hell was I going to say?
00:30:51
Denis Tyrell
I don't know.
00:30:53
echo_blades
I'm super sidetracked. My son just, my son just, yeah know my son just texted me ah i
00:30:54
Denis Tyrell
Deep thoughts with Jared. and
00:31:01
echo_blades
a marketplace for a car. So he's, yeah, he's now ah employed and um understanding that gas is expensive.
00:31:06
Denis Tyrell
Uh-oh.
00:31:18
Denis Tyrell
Mm-hmm.
00:31:18
echo_blades
So I explained to him the concept of of a beater, which he didn't understand.
00:31:23
echo_blades
And I was you have a truck. said, yeah, but i can't I can't afford to drive it I said, ha ha. Ha
00:31:33
Denis Tyrell
welcome to being an adult
00:31:36
echo_blades
ha. Ha ha. I didn't realize it was
Promotions, Community, and Reflections
00:31:40
echo_blades
going to be that easy to not have to give him my truck.
00:31:44
Denis Tyrell
So you're going to help them?
00:31:44
echo_blades
But yeah. yeah Of course I'll help him. We have this cool thing to we're at the ah We were golfing this weekend and we walked in and he works at the place and you he needed a glove.
00:31:58
echo_blades
And he walks up and he takes the glove to the lady and she's like, you want to put it with your dad? and they i looked at it And I looked at both of them because like it's his boss and him. And they're looking at me and I'm like, i said't don't you have a job? And then there was like silence in the freak in the in the shop and i was just like,
00:32:18
echo_blades
I said, you're still my son, dude. i I'll get your club. there Oh, you're a good dad. I'm like, no, I just see the dad. I buy him a glove or I got to fill his gas tank up.
00:32:24
Denis Tyrell
think
00:32:26
echo_blades
This is way cheaper.
00:32:28
Denis Tyrell
I think him and his boss have wrapped around their fingers.
00:32:33
echo_blades
i He does. He does. He's a good kid. He's a really good kid. So I don't, I don't mind helping. Uh, um what it Dude, it's the Masters week.
00:32:45
echo_blades
So going to get the golf stuff out of the way. This is the greatest week in golf. Absolutely. That's disrespectful. That's like your Stanley cup or whatever you hold dear and true to your heart. This is the, this is the best weekend in golf. I am fired up. Um, and, uh, yeah, I golf twice this weekend, still got shop time in golf. Uh, it didn't shop pretty well. So what I did for the first time was, uh, because Jared's working now.
00:33:12
echo_blades
So my golf partners, uh, time is limited. He, uh, we've played with a couple of people there and we'll play some like side games and know, for very little money, but guy normally play with, um, we did, uh, another, did a couple of games, skins game and a couple other things. And this was the first time I've ever lost money or gambled on a, on a golf other than like a tournament.
00:33:41
echo_blades
And, uh,
00:33:41
Denis Tyrell
Okay. First time you've ever gambled or the first time you've ever lost money?
00:33:45
echo_blades
It's both. The first time I did, I ended up losing.
00:33:46
Denis Tyrell
oh
00:33:48
echo_blades
I mean, it was like seven bucks, but like, um, we all had to pay this guy seven bucks. so I was like, you know, it wasn't a huge stakes, but man, it, it, it really makes the, the the game a little more, ah interesting.
00:34:01
echo_blades
I'm like, and now there's a little, so little something on it, um, to do it. But I think I'm hooked now. That's, that's a problem. Cause I don't like gambling in any form at all, but
00:34:13
Denis Tyrell
You don't like gambling?
00:34:15
echo_blades
no Dude, every time every time i go to like Reno or Vegas, or which I haven't been to Vegas, but anytime I go to a casino, all I see is, and I'll, mean, it it ranges, but I just, i feel I feel like that is a lot of tacos I could buy with this money.
00:34:35
echo_blades
And I just can't, I can't equate just throwing tacos out the out the window, dude.
00:34:40
Denis Tyrell
Oh, you should not come to our poker game then.
00:34:40
echo_blades
Because I never win.
00:34:44
echo_blades
Yeah, I, it's not my thing. ah there's a I'll play some slots here and there. I did have some, it's problem is, is yeah I'm an addict, right? So like, I don't need another thing to, to throw into that. And I know that, um, if I get too, too into it, it'll be one of those things. Not that I'm not going bet my house and lose everything, but just, it's just one of those things, a slippery slope. So I try to stay away from it.
00:35:10
echo_blades
Um,
00:35:10
Denis Tyrell
I get it.
00:35:11
echo_blades
Yeah. But yeah, that, that was, uh, it was cool. It was good. I had a good time. We've got a tournament this weekend, um, on Saturday and then that's it, but it's master's time and we're ready to go.
00:35:27
echo_blades
I'll be, uh, fired up for that. Um, I don't know why the masters makes me think of, uh, grip tech, but maybe cause like, like the master grip, but,
00:35:38
Denis Tyrell
Matt that is the master.
00:35:40
echo_blades
He's the master of grip.
00:35:45
Denis Tyrell
that was a stretch, but...
00:35:46
echo_blades
Oh yeah. He stretches it. with
00:35:52
echo_blades
Okay. Uh, yeah. Grip de composites, uh, grip tech official on Instagram, grip tech.com, uh, maker grip X, um, grip X 3d, uh, limitless.
00:36:05

echo_blades

Denis Tyrell
um So that reminded me of the drop point, which i had a bunch of knives go up in the drop point, which was awesome. I sold one of my folders, which was even more awesome when I've been i had for a little while. So I was happy to the the stainless damascus one um just sold so good to have that one off to its new home so it's just proof that the draw point works so if you guys need to sell some knives you want to get your knives in front of customers go use the drop point it is free it is great for targeting
00:37:56
Denis Tyrell
Consumers, not just knife makers. I know we all want to impress our friends with our knives, but they're not the ones that make them. i mean, sorry, they're not the ones that buy them. You make them, they don't buy them.
00:38:07
Denis Tyrell
Go after the guys that buy them. So go after some consumers on the drop point.
00:38:12
echo_blades
Why do I want to say consumer? I feel like it's customers.
00:38:16
Denis Tyrell
Consumers, customers, whatever.

00:43:49
Denis Tyrell
And I figured I've never really done um kind of a video on culinary knives specifically. and like tips and tricks and things to watch out for and different grinds and just an overview of culinary knives and what to what to look for in making them. So um yeah, it was pretty well received. um One of the better triple T's as far as viewers viewers that I've had in a while.
