Introduction and Co-host Mix-up
00:00:16
echo_blades
What is happening, everybody? Welcome to another Triple T Podcast for Knife Makers. In this week's episode, we have a no-show from Mr. Dennis Terrell, my co-host who decides to just not show up to record some days.
00:00:31
echo_blades
But he's here now, so I'm super grateful.
00:00:35
Denis Tyrell
Look, my wife was home and i thought I thought for sure it was Sunday, but it was a long weekend. So I had, it was throwing me off because she was home. So that's my excuse.
00:00:46
Denis Tyrell
and
00:00:46
echo_blades
I is not a good one because I sat around, you know, waited their normal time, sent a text message after, know, cause I'm not the most punctual ah to our start times. It's a very loose start.
00:00:57
echo_blades
And then it was like 20 minutes past. I'm like, Hey, what's going on? then another 20 minutes. I'm like, Hey, I'm like, all right, dude,
00:01:04
Denis Tyrell
We were busy watching a TV show, so I had my phone on the dresser and leaving poor Jared.
00:01:12
echo_blades
my favorite My favorite part about it is, okay, I'm going to sleep. I don't know when it was, 20 minutes, 30 minutes later. He's like, okay, let's record tomorrow. I'm like, okay. don't think we have any choice now there, buckaroo.
00:01:25
Denis Tyrell
It was like 9.30 by that point. I wasn't going to start ah recording, so.
00:01:32
echo_blades
no I was out.
00:01:33
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, I figured you were, you didn't respond, so I figured you were already asleep.
00:01:34
echo_blades
I was asleep.
00:01:37
echo_blades
Yep.
00:01:38
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:01:38
echo_blades
Or I ignored you.
00:01:41
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, it could have been that since I ignored you plenty.
00:01:44
echo_blades
Yes. I think it's hilarious because we were just kind of talking about it because he was busting me up for not being here the week before last and, or last week, sorry. and I was like, man, you've not showed up one time. you're like, no, I haven't. And then the very next week he, he goes MIA.
00:01:58
echo_blades
So anyways, our sincere apologize, apologizing, apologies for, uh, the delay in the episode, but, um, You're going get it this evening, so it won't even be an entire day's delay.
00:02:10
Denis Tyrell
That's right.
00:02:13
echo_blades
Not that anybody will catch that, but...
00:02:16
Denis Tyrell
I will release it as soon as we're done recording in case people are madly waiting.
00:02:20
echo_blades
Awesome. Well... They are.
00:02:25
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, everyone is
00:02:25
echo_blades
Obviously. all All four of them. Now that the fifth one just finally took out. We just got the fifth one, and then you just freaking no-showed them away.
00:02:35
Denis Tyrell
All right, all right.
00:02:37
echo_blades
Okay. Anyways. I'm not sure I'm going to let that go yet, but we'll, we'll see what happens.
00:02:38
Denis Tyrell
So yeah, yeah, whatever.
Travel Plans and Military Life
00:02:43
Denis Tyrell
ah The reason I wanted to do it early is because I'm going to be, i got to leave for the airport at like five in the morning tomorrow.
00:02:43
echo_blades
Good.
00:02:49
Denis Tyrell
It's going to be three days of like no sleep for me. So
00:02:53
echo_blades
What is the occasion? Can you please remind me?
00:02:56
Denis Tyrell
it's Parker's graduation. So
00:02:59
echo_blades
OMG. gee
00:03:01
Denis Tyrell
yeah our flight is at like 830 in San Francisco. So that's an hour drive.
00:03:07
echo_blades
Oh, that is absolutely the worst time.
00:03:10
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Yeah.
00:03:11
echo_blades
There couldn't be a worse flight time.
00:03:13
Denis Tyrell
Well, actually, I prefer the 830 than like like a 1030 flight because then i we're driving there right during traffic, which means you got to leave even earlier. So I don't mind this.
00:03:24
echo_blades
I don't know. There's that. Well, you might be all right. You might be all right, but.
00:03:29
Denis Tyrell
But when we get there, like Thursday morning when the graduation, the graduation is just apparently it is a fucking shit show to get in to get on the base.
00:03:40
Denis Tyrell
Um, and the, get this, the ceremony, they close the doors at eight 30. The ceremony starts at nine. People get to the Great Lakes training facility at six in the morning.
00:03:56
Denis Tyrell
Like it's no, but the the doors close at eight 30.
00:03:56
echo_blades
What? You said 930? Okay.
00:04:01
Denis Tyrell
So you have to be there before eight 30. The graduation starts at nine. People get to the facility at, they start lining up to get in before six.
00:04:11
echo_blades
to get front row seats.
00:04:13
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, I mean, I've been there once for Cameron, my stepson's graduation. It's like bleachers, it's like whatever, 20 rows of bleachers, all.
00:04:23
echo_blades
Oh, so it's like you can see ah very little of them or very little or or more. You can't see them, right? It ain't gonna improve anything being the front or the back.
00:04:32
Denis Tyrell
if Not really.
00:04:35
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:04:35
Denis Tyrell
big unless you're Unless you're sailors in the very front, you're you know you see a bunch of people in blue. But yeah, it's ridiculous. So we got to get up like the crack of dawn two days in a row.
00:04:49
Denis Tyrell
to um you know So it's going to be a rough couple of days, but it doesn't matter.
00:04:54
echo_blades
Yeah, well, you got that sleep and you got that going to sleep early thing going on pretty locked in right now, so that shouldn't be a problem for you.
00:05:02
Denis Tyrell
But I'm very excited to see him graduate and to see him in his dress blues and, you know, all set up. And, yeah, it's going to be a gonna be a good day.
00:05:13
Denis Tyrell
I'm looking forward to it
00:05:14
echo_blades
I am super happy for you, and congratulations to the young sailor, Mr. Parker. What an accomplishment. I feel a little sense of pride for him too as well. So I'm ah extremely proud of him.
00:05:24
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:05:26
echo_blades
That is an amazing, that's a really cool deal. I'm super happy for you guys.
00:05:30
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Yeah, that's it's cool. He'll be in, he's staying in Chicago for like another year, year and a half almost. He's got like almost two years of training to do before he A school.
00:05:42
echo_blades
What is that next program called? I can't remember. A school. Yeah, that's right.
00:05:46
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, he's yeah he does he won't get stationed for close to two years. That's why it's a six-year contract because there's two years of A school.
00:05:58
Denis Tyrell
Close to two years, a year and a half or something like
00:06:01
echo_blades
Wow. That went by super quick.
00:06:03
Denis Tyrell
It did. Yeah, it did.
00:06:04
echo_blades
I mean, you were just, I was just wiping tears off your face right before Christmas.
00:06:08
Denis Tyrell
i
00:06:09
echo_blades
And now here we are. Yeah. Same thing.
00:06:13
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, yeah, it felt like it flew by. I'm sure it didn't fly by for him, but um
00:06:17
echo_blades
I probably did. Probably did.
00:06:19
Denis Tyrell
yeah, I mean, it's day by day, week by week kind of thing.
00:06:20
echo_blades
It's probably faster for him.
00:06:23
Denis Tyrell
But yeah, the last thing they have to do is called battle stations, which is like there's this like it's like a quarter of a ship that's inside this big building and actually there's water around it it's it's it's like a facade but it's like a quarter of a real ship and then other there's like it gets hit by a missile it gets fires there's all this like stuff and it lasts for uh i think 30 hours so they're up for like 36 hours for this whole ordeal which is like their final exam is called battle stations
00:06:45
echo_blades
Oh shit.
00:06:58
echo_blades
And he does that after he does the ceremony graduation.
00:07:00
Denis Tyrell
No, no, no, no. He's already done. He's already passed guy a battle stations.
00:07:03
echo_blades
Oh, he already, he already did.
00:07:03
Denis Tyrell
Battle stations was last week. well once Once they pass battle stations, then that's when he makes the I'm a sailor call and it's official.
00:07:08
echo_blades
That's that's official.
00:07:13
Denis Tyrell
And then the last week is just them practicing for graduation and like marching and doing all that bullshit.
00:07:21
echo_blades
Ah, that's cool.
00:07:22
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. So I knew last week he was going to graduate on time. he was going to graduate, all that stuff. So.
00:07:29
Denis Tyrell
In fact, even a week before that, he called me and said, yeah, he's basically going graduate. The only thing he had left is battle stations because he had already passed all the physical stuff, which was the main thing that's going to set you back.
00:07:41
Denis Tyrell
So, yeah. Yeah. I'm looking for you He's going to be pretty buffed. I'm looking forward to seeing him and seeing what nine weeks of little sleep and a lot of physical training does to him.
00:07:41
echo_blades
That's super cool.
00:07:54
echo_blades
Chibi, slim trim, fight machine, dude.
00:07:57
Denis Tyrell
That's right. That's right.
00:07:58
echo_blades
Are sailors killers?
00:08:01
Denis Tyrell
Well, of course they are.
00:08:01
echo_blades
Are they like Marine or they're like killers?
00:08:04
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, of course they are. In different ways.
00:08:09
echo_blades
I'm saying that's not like their MO.
00:08:11
Denis Tyrell
No,
00:08:11
echo_blades
You serve God and your country and not necessarily in that order.
00:08:14
Denis Tyrell
that's Marines.
00:08:18
Denis Tyrell
That's Marines.
00:08:19
echo_blades
All right.
00:08:21
Denis Tyrell
Navy's there to insert air power and insert Marines and water superiority. I'm
Golf and Knife-making Challenges
00:08:30
Denis Tyrell
i'm not um i'm not a Navy guy.
00:08:30
echo_blades
Well, I i i understand the yeah the the function of the Navy.
00:08:31
Denis Tyrell
so
00:08:34
echo_blades
I'm just saying, like, is that their motto? Like, they're just hardcore, you know, tired, rubber-eating killers.
00:08:38
Denis Tyrell
No.
00:08:40
echo_blades
Yeah, that's just, that's the Army and the and the Marines.
00:08:41
Denis Tyrell
No. That's that's the... da Yeah. That's the Marines.
00:08:47
echo_blades
I'm a sailor.
00:08:49
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. But, yeah.
00:08:50
echo_blades
That's cool.
00:08:50
Denis Tyrell
So that's... I'll be there till Sunday night. And, yeah. Then back at it. On...
00:08:58
echo_blades
There you go again, ruining weekend plans for us.
00:08:58
Denis Tyrell
not
00:09:01
echo_blades
Jeez. Goodness gracious.
00:09:03
Denis Tyrell
Hey, if you didn't have golf every weekend, then maybe you'd be able to come over and get some stuff done.
00:09:09
echo_blades
That's fair. I don't have an argument for that. Speaking of, I got my new clubs and like every year,
00:09:15
Denis Tyrell
So.
00:09:19
Denis Tyrell
Yes.
00:09:23
echo_blades
I don't know. It's like your new knew anything, right? It's supposed to make you better, faster, stronger, better looking. So i yeah when I went to go get fitted, i hit the things...
00:09:36
Denis Tyrell
Thank you.
00:09:37
echo_blades
Best I've hit in a long time. i go out the first time with them and i shoot an 89, but I still had a triple on the first hole and a triple on the last. So I'm still thinking like this elusive under 85 and low eighties is always stifled by these, you know, blow up holes.
00:09:56
echo_blades
I'm like, Oh my God, I'm, I'm about to join the tour. There's nothing else. Speed slot, tailor-made seven seventies, you know, quasi blades, not your average, uh, beginner.
00:10:06
Denis Tyrell
You just said a whole bunch of phrases that I don't even know what they mean.
00:10:09
Denis Tyrell
So I'm sure most of our audience doesn't.
00:10:09
echo_blades
Yeah, they they are definitely for a lower handicap golfer than I am, right?
00:10:14
echo_blades
Anyways, I'm just like, this is great. I've got this. Uh, and then, um, then the next day happened and then last week happened.
00:10:20
Denis Tyrell
You shit the bed?
00:10:22
echo_blades
And, uh, yeah. So that's the one, that's what I love and hate about golf though. It's like, as soon as you swear, you've got it. You just, you wake up one morning and yeah, especially when you're older, you know, you're just not turning the right way or moving.
00:10:35
echo_blades
And yeah, it was, it was, it was, disaster I did have a fun game and I'll shut up about the golf, but we played on Sunday, um on Valentine's day, actually in the morning, uh,
00:10:48
echo_blades
Five clubs, we took five clubs. You're only allowed to have five clubs and we played from the front tees. It was interesting.
00:10:53
Denis Tyrell
I only use five clubs anyway. I might use three, actually.
00:10:57
echo_blades
I guess.
00:10:58
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:10:59
echo_blades
Yeah, yeah, you were. You don't hit your driver. But yeah, it was interesting. You take your putter as one of them, obviously, and then, you know, whatever other four clubs. But you play from the front tees. So you, like, you have a bunch of different looks at the thing. And then you, like, find yourself in this distance where you want to use a club that you wish you had, but you didn't put it. You didn't bring it. And it was fun. And you're supposed to.
00:11:19
echo_blades
shoot a lot better from the front tees. Now, no, that didn't happen. So, uh, it was interesting, but yeah, new clubs don't fix you just like a a new tool doesn't make you a better knife maker. So
00:11:34
echo_blades
I am, ah fucking am am. That was me crying. hey
00:11:42
Denis Tyrell
ah
00:11:42
echo_blades
Uh, that was almost a well-timed, uh, audio clip or whatever that thing is called.
00:11:43
Denis Tyrell
so
00:11:45
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, I know.
00:11:47
echo_blades
Drop sound drop.
00:11:49
Denis Tyrell
ah Did you make anything in the shop or...
00:11:53
echo_blades
Yes. and don't want to quite get there yet, though. But yeah, i got in there a little bit.
00:11:59
Denis Tyrell
Oh, you know, we were complaining about being old, you know, and how you, you know, her speed up in the morning.
00:12:00
echo_blades
Um...
00:12:05
Denis Tyrell
I had my student, Dan in the shop last week. He came for a three day course. We did two days of mosaic, made some mosaic Damascus, and then a day turning that into a chef knife and grinding and showing them how to grind a chef knife, things like that.
00:12:22
Denis Tyrell
And 79 years old
00:12:26
echo_blades
Yeah, he and he nullifies that little bitch ass complaint of ours. yeah that Yeah, that puts it in perspective and i have no no legitimate reason to talk about my age when ah a guy like Dan's putting in in that work.
00:12:30
Denis Tyrell
Yes, exactly. oh
00:12:37
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:12:40
echo_blades
Good dude, man.
00:12:40
Denis Tyrell
That's right.
00:12:40
echo_blades
I i think I stopped by in ah one afternoon and saw you.
00:12:42
Denis Tyrell
You did. Yeah. That's Wednesday or something.
00:12:46
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:12:47
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, no, he did really good.
00:12:47
echo_blades
That's cool.
00:12:48
Denis Tyrell
Pattern came out.
00:12:49
echo_blades
Yeah, that pattern came out.
00:12:49
Denis Tyrell
Awesome.
00:12:50
echo_blades
Yeah, i was just going to say that pattern came out really, really cool.
00:12:50
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Yeah.
00:12:52
echo_blades
79.
00:12:52
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Came nice and symmetric.
00:12:53
echo_blades
Good Lord. seventy- nine
00:12:55
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:12:55
echo_blades
good lord
00:12:56
Denis Tyrell
He follows instructions well when I say do this. He did that. Unlike Jared.
00:13:03
echo_blades
Yeah, fuck that. That's stupid.
00:13:07
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. But yeah, that was my week. And then now I'm just gearing up, trying to be in crunch mode for Blade Texas to get some stuff done.
00:13:19
Denis Tyrell
But I think I'm on track.
00:13:20
echo_blades
Mm-hmm.
00:13:21
Denis Tyrell
Probably ahead of schedule a little bit.
00:13:24
echo_blades
Nice. Did you bust out your fat peen?
00:13:25
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Yeah. I did. Actually, I didn't. I haven't used it in a while, but it'll get some use in a few weeks when I have and i have to teach a class.
00:13:34
echo_blades
oh it was a mosaic. So it was all...
00:13:37
Denis Tyrell
in I have like four classes coming up. or three classes, something like that. So for sure, i will be using the fat peen from Two Bastards Texas Smithian Supplies. If you need a hammer, go talk to Frank. He will set you up. Looking forward to seeing Frank next month at Blade Texas.
00:13:59
Denis Tyrell
ah He did shoot me out a, I guess it was a comment on one of my posts saying that he was going to see us next month. So looking forward to that.
00:14:07
echo_blades
Awesome. Yes.
00:14:09
Denis Tyrell
So they're always a good fun to see.
00:14:10
echo_blades
Yeah, there's only one thing better than having a fat peen in your hand that's grand.
00:14:15
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, what's that?
00:14:16
echo_blades
That's seeing Frank and Nita.
00:14:20
Denis Tyrell
Yes, I'll give you that.
00:14:22
echo_blades
You get to see the hand that provides all the hands, all the joy. It's so cool. He's the maker of the fat peen.
00:14:29
Denis Tyrell
don't how to take that. Okay.
00:14:31
echo_blades
God, geez, filthy, filthy McNasty, dude. Get out of here.
00:14:36
Denis Tyrell
We're also going to see Mr. Coy Baker of Baker Forge and Tool.
00:14:40
echo_blades
Uh-huh. I just had a memory pop up of him being here last year.
00:14:41
Denis Tyrell
and
00:14:45
Denis Tyrell
does What do you mean?
00:14:46
echo_blades
Send him over a text message the other day and said, hey, look, it just.
00:14:49
Denis Tyrell
Wasn't that in April? Was it February?
00:14:51
echo_blades
No, was it I'm assuming it was a year ago. Yeah.
00:14:54
Denis Tyrell
Oh, it was February. Sorry, I was in Washington in April. Yeah, it was February last year.
00:14:58
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:14:59
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, you still haven't done anything with that steel, by the way.
00:15:03
echo_blades
Yeah, because it's um like an aged wine or ah beef, you know? It's just ah curing right now for the awesomeness that it will be.
00:15:12
Denis Tyrell
I think it's more like a piece of cheese for you. ah if If you guys need some awesome steel, go check out Baker Fortune Tool. Their drop this week is the... I had it in front of me. No, I lost it. um yes the Yes, the Inferno Go Core is live. That's their... their there Why is this and so complicated to read?
00:15:45
Denis Tyrell
This is podcasting extraordinaire.
00:15:46
echo_blades
Oh my God, Corey, I am so sorry.
00:15:49
Denis Tyrell
I was looking for...
00:15:50
echo_blades
just a day late and an ad read short, dude. What is going on?
00:15:54
Denis Tyrell
I can't even find it um Yes, Damascus Pattern Forge onto ADCRV2 to create a unique go core. This is their steel showcasing 25 striking layers of Damascus.
00:16:09
Denis Tyrell
and ah copper mascus cladding so with a ladder pattern on top of it so go check that out and of course now thankfully you can go check out their core line which uh they will always have in stock at incredible prices i had um one of my students was uh was texting me last night about making some damascus and and stuff like that and uh he was talking about how to price it. And I'm like, it's impossible to like sell Damascus now because Koi and the boys at Baker Forge have cornered the market and they're doing it so cheap that you can buy an eighth inch piece.
00:16:53
Denis Tyrell
Was it an eight, eight inch piece of eighth inch thick. um One of the really nice ones, like the ripple one, or forget forget which one it was. And it was $72.00.
00:17:07
Denis Tyrell
For that piece. $72. Unbelievable. And you can use the discount code TTT10 on top of that to get 10% off.
00:17:15
echo_blades
But wait, there's more.
00:17:17
Denis Tyrell
It slices. It dices.
00:17:21
Denis Tyrell
And while you're there, get some Gator Piss of all the varieties, some Grime Reaper, and some Gator Skin. Because you've got to clean it, etch it, protect it. Get those knives made with some Baker Forge products.
00:17:33
echo_blades
That's right. And although that core line is available in stock all the time, the app users can still get ahead of the special drops one day earlier than the regular website folks. So make sure you download the Baker Forging Tool app, use the discount code TTT10 and get that piece down sixty some
00:17:58
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, 60-something. That's great math.
00:18:00
echo_blades
Yeah, I did that all right now without even my fingers. like My hands are inside my hoodie pocket.
00:18:06
Denis Tyrell
You rounded it up to 60-something.
00:18:08
echo_blades
Down, dude, down. Down.
00:18:11
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. whatever
00:18:13
echo_blades
Come on, we're trying to push something here. What's matter with you? Discount codes don't make shit go up. What's matter with you?
00:18:22
echo_blades
All right.
00:18:22
Denis Tyrell
Uh, so yeah, so now I'm crazily working on stuff to try to get stuff for, uh, I'm trying to get those two. Well, the one's already done. I'm trying to get that dagger done for, um, for Texas.
00:18:35
Denis Tyrell
So that's what I'm working on. I've been putting on a bunch of reels on making that thing, ah doing the spiral fluted ivory, um Actually, I do have a story on the ivory because, you know, I've been saying for weeks I've been waiting for this ivory um because it got delayed. it
00:18:55
echo_blades
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Mm-hmm.
00:18:57
Denis Tyrell
i The guy I got it from got the wrong piece. It was just a cluster. So the the moral of this story is don't don't buy something from somebody unless they have it in their hand because he was working off pictures that the guy sent him.
00:19:15
Denis Tyrell
of a batch. And in one picture, the picture with them lying sideways, one of the pieces is nice and straight. I'm like, I want that piece. And then the next picture had all of the sizes with them on their end with the sizes written on them. Well, he had moved two of the pieces and one of them happened to be the piece I wanted.
00:19:37
Denis Tyrell
So the piece I want, the measurements were from another, anyway, it was a big clusterfuck, but, um, I made it work.
00:19:45
echo_blades
You got middle man.
00:19:46
Denis Tyrell
I did get middleman. So, I mean, it's not entirely his fault cause he was just forwarding the pictures to me and I was picking it based on those pictures. But like I said, the moral of the story is wait for them. If you're going to get it from a middleman, wait for the middleman to have it in his hand.
00:20:02
Denis Tyrell
And,
Current Projects and Master-level Crafting
00:20:03
Denis Tyrell
uh, get him to send you pictures and verify that it is what it is. So no, no, I was pissed off, but you know, cause I had been waiting weeks for this thing.
00:20:09
echo_blades
Yeah. He didn't pull the wool over your eyes, right? Yeah. Gotcha. Well, you're, yeah you're the impossible customer. You're, that that is a good transition into some, a reel that I saw from our buddy at Working Hands Forge.
00:20:25
echo_blades
Did you see this, the reel that he put out about the the customer?
00:20:30
Denis Tyrell
no
00:20:30
echo_blades
He's like, oh, and he does this, like, some accent, but he's like, you know, I want you to make me a piece of Damascus, a million layers. And he's like, pulls a picture of a dollar out.
00:20:42
echo_blades
And he's like, you know, and because the custom people, they only they want the impossible build. in an incredible amount of time. He's like, and I need this in two weeks because it's a birthday coming up.
00:20:55
echo_blades
And, you know, and he's like, don't worry, I tip very well. And he ends up, he shows a quarter going out. Dude, it was fantastic. That young man just absolutely is is on fire for, I mean, just great work, but the content he puts out every now and, or all the time, I should say, just working hands forge.
00:21:09
Denis Tyrell
Who is this?
00:21:12
echo_blades
I can't, the the name is, ah give me one second.
00:21:15
Denis Tyrell
the
00:21:18
Denis Tyrell
Is that um
00:21:19
echo_blades
The name is completely eluding me.
00:21:21
Denis Tyrell
young is it young young guy?
00:21:22
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:21:22
echo_blades
Yeah, young kid.
00:21:23
echo_blades
um
00:21:24
Denis Tyrell
He's going to be a Texas. We'll see him.
00:21:25
echo_blades
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's the one with the with the grip challenge that I always fuck up.
00:21:26
Denis Tyrell
um
00:21:30
Denis Tyrell
Why is this Elijah?
00:21:34
echo_blades
Elijah.
00:21:34
Denis Tyrell
Elijah, yeah.
00:21:34
echo_blades
Yeah, I think that's right.
00:21:36
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:21:36
echo_blades
Oh, I put working hands.
00:21:36
Denis Tyrell
No, I was just messaging him the other day.
00:21:37
echo_blades
on
00:21:38
Denis Tyrell
Um, or we were exchanging comments on a, on a post, but it wasn't that post. I actually didn't see that one. So I'll have to go look at it. Sounds hilarious.
00:21:47
echo_blades
Dude, it's hilarious. Yeah, Elijah White.
00:21:49
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:21:51
echo_blades
It's so good. It was, it was spot on. And it was just like, you know, just that, that customer that is like, you know, kid, make me this impossible. Don't want to pay for it. Don't want to wait for it.
00:22:02
echo_blades
um But yeah, it was really cool. I had me laughing. So, and in anyways, the moral of that story is, is, is that you as the ivory purchaser.
00:22:05
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:22:11
Denis Tyrell
Yes, exactly. Well, no, but I should have had something that should have shipped to me in like four days and it took like three and a half weeks. So, yeah.
00:22:20
echo_blades
Yeah. Nah, that sucks, dude.
00:22:22
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. But i and so when I do have a little story, when I was fluting the handle.
00:22:28
echo_blades
What? I'm
00:22:31
Denis Tyrell
What? What? What? what
00:22:33
echo_blades
just... Okay.
00:22:34
Denis Tyrell
um'm I'm using this ivory for a handle for this dagger. It's a Keown, Quillian, Keown dagger. um And I'm,
00:22:46
echo_blades
What a quill here. It was fluta.
00:22:51
Denis Tyrell
and I'm, I'm thinking, and I did this last time and I just forgot.
00:22:54
echo_blades
It's a master level entry of Park's AR.
00:22:56
Denis Tyrell
It's right. Oh,
00:22:58
echo_blades
This is not your average build. This is for the projection of master classification.
00:23:05
Denis Tyrell
And I fluted it and I bought enough gold wire um thinking I was going to.
00:23:09
echo_blades
Not only is there ivory, but there's gold.
00:23:12
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, yeah.
00:23:13
Denis Tyrell
Well, it gets better. um And I bought this this gold for this in November. Which I mean i you should look back in the chart what gold was in November. It was probably like, four I'm guessing about $4,400 an ounce.
00:23:13
echo_blades
on.
00:23:27
echo_blades
Okay.
00:23:28
Denis Tyrell
Probably around there. it's all it's It's pushing an ounce right now.
00:23:34
echo_blades
Hmm.
00:23:34
Denis Tyrell
so um So I bought this wire thinking I was going to do four four wires.
00:23:40
echo_blades
Jeez, man, God, dude. Oh, man.
00:23:43
Denis Tyrell
So now I got into it and I'm like, okay, I don't like how it looks. There's too many flat spots. So I ended up doubling the number of flutes and doubling the number of wire. I had to order that much gold wire and I cheaped out, cheaped out and went for 18 karat gold instead of 24.
00:24:00
Denis Tyrell
the goal just and this much gold again and this is 48 inches of 18 karat gold wire cost me 500
00:24:12
echo_blades
Goodness gracious.
00:24:13
Denis Tyrell
so this by far is now the most expensive handle i've ever put in a knife we're pushing 1500 bucks now just for the handle on this knife and you've seen how big i can handle
00:24:25
echo_blades
that that Yeah. You told me not to put my dirty Mexican hands on it though. I don't know what it was yet.
00:24:31
Denis Tyrell
I didn't say Mexican. It was inferred.
00:24:33
echo_blades
It was totally inferred. You're like, hey, little dirty Mexican, don't touch that. Your brown's going run here because it's going dirty up my handle. was like, okay. I guess we're close, but I mean, yeah no.
00:24:44
echo_blades
That's hilarious.
00:24:44
Denis Tyrell
ah Yeah, I could not believe how expensive the though ah gold wire was for that. Like, don't...
00:24:52
echo_blades
right, so... Back in 2000, before Jared was a good guy, um i was you know in my my prime of of using and partying and doing all that stuff. For whatever reason, um i did a lot of driving for work, and i used to listen to this AM m talk show.
00:25:12
echo_blades
um There was this guy, what was his name? Tom... Tom Lichen or I don't know. Some Southern California shock jock type dude. um And then following his show, there would be this dude named to Tom Martino or i don't know. He was like a ah tips guy for investing. And I remember him thinking about I didn't have any money. And if I had money, I was spending it on drugs and everything. But um he was pushing that.
00:25:39
echo_blades
you need to buy gold and you you need to buy silver. And I kept thinking to myself like, oh yeah, I should probably do that. But i remember thinking to myself because at that time, an ounce of weed was $400 and an ounce of gold was $409. And I, in my infinite wisdom was like, well, obviously I'm gonna, you know, I'm gonna buy the weed instead of the gold.
00:26:01
echo_blades
And as you just said, $4,400, I was just thinking to myself, if I would have bought half the amount of weed that I bought in gold today, i would be retired just like you are
00:26:18
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:26:19
echo_blades
and So, ah yeah, I think cool gold is a lot more than weed now.
00:26:20
Denis Tyrell
The, the,
00:26:25
echo_blades
so That's the moral of the story.
00:26:27
Denis Tyrell
And remember, what was it, two years ago or two and a half years ago, I did that build with the gold in it. Remember, Dave fronted $5,600 for 2.1 ounces gold.
00:26:33
echo_blades
Yeah, sure.
00:26:36
Denis Tyrell
And then it was like $2,300. Remember, this is like refined so there's markup. $5,600. That amount now would be over $10,000. one east three hundred dollars remember this is like refined gold so there's a markup um so fifty six hundred dollars um that amount now would be over ten thousand dollars
00:26:57
echo_blades
Oh, yeah, he made an investment in a build.
00:26:59
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, totally.
00:27:00
echo_blades
yeah he yeah He expanded his portfolio with a knife purchase.
00:27:01
Denis Tyrell
He made out with like a,
00:27:04
echo_blades
That's incredible. a Oh, that's crazy.
00:27:09
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. So
00:27:11
echo_blades
Wow. Well, yeah, you are fancy, dude. You got a $1,500 handle.
00:27:15
Denis Tyrell
yeah, fancy. Well, I mean, I'm going big on this one. I want some, money and I'm,
00:27:21
echo_blades
yeah
00:27:23
Denis Tyrell
I'm being a masochist. I did the pommel, which I showed you. And then after you left today, um I did spiral fluting on the end of the pommel, which looks pretty badass, I got to say.
00:27:37
echo_blades
Did you do it on the original or did you do the practice?
00:27:39
Denis Tyrell
No, no, I know I wanted to test it. So to know how to not do the process in certain areas and do it better in others.
00:27:41
echo_blades
Okay.
00:27:47
Denis Tyrell
So.
00:27:48
echo_blades
Yeah. did Dennis, he showed me today. like, he had three pommels on there and he's like, third time's a charm. And he's like, there's ah a little one, a big one, and then the right one. And I said, okay, little one's Dennis, big one's Jared.
00:28:00
echo_blades
And then there's the perfect guy there.
00:28:03
Denis Tyrell
I shouldn't have recorded that because I recorded a little real being like Goldilocks and the the three pommels. But
00:28:10
echo_blades
Yeah. You need me for all things that are cool.
00:28:13
Denis Tyrell
yeah, I guess so.
00:28:14
echo_blades
That's true.
00:28:16
Denis Tyrell
But yeah, so after that, oh, and I got my new laser, which is sitting right beside me, this big monster.
00:28:16
echo_blades
Anyways.
00:28:21
echo_blades
Oh, nice.
00:28:22
Denis Tyrell
um So what when I figure out this laser, then i can laser in the the engraving for the inlay, and then it's just sanding and finish work.
00:28:36
echo_blades
Nice.
00:28:37
Denis Tyrell
So, well and I, yeah, thank you.
00:28:38
echo_blades
Blade looks cool. the Blade looks cool.
00:28:40
Denis Tyrell
Thank you.
00:28:40
echo_blades
Yeah. The guard. Is that what it is?
00:28:44
Denis Tyrell
Guard. Yeah. What about it?
00:28:46
echo_blades
This pretty, I didn't get to tell you, but I was thinking like I always, so I would struggle with visualizing that, but symmetry wise getting the the, like, it's like a, but to me, it looked like a fish hook.
00:29:02
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, it's Dave said the same thing last week in the in the episode that it looks like fish hooks and it was supposed to be that.
00:29:04
echo_blades
Yeah. Yeah.
00:29:08
echo_blades
Yeah. Yeah, it's damn cool. So I have not seen anything like it, but the knife looks great.
00:29:15
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. And that entire guard was milled. That's why it's perfectly symmetrical. There was no, there was no forging on the guard. It was milled from a big block of steel because I wanted to make sure that it was perfectly symmetrical.
00:29:27
echo_blades
Gotcha.
00:29:30
echo_blades
Yeah, you did a good job. That that that that that came out cool.
00:29:32
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Yeah. But yeah, I'm anxious to see it all, black all the parts blackened and with the gold inlay and it should look pretty, pretty snazzy.
00:29:44
Denis Tyrell
Hopefully you guys will see some pictures on Instagram as it progresses in the next month.
00:29:44
echo_blades
Nice.
00:29:51
echo_blades
Very cool.
00:29:52
Denis Tyrell
Kind of a warmup to the blade show. And I will have it with me. So if you see me at Blade Show and you want to see that knife or the feather buoy, yeah, just...
00:30:03
echo_blades
I
Co-host Search and Travel Tales
00:30:04
echo_blades
posted, the I posted, ah or put that, your post on on the the Triple T story.
00:30:14
Denis Tyrell
Okay. Okay.
00:30:15
echo_blades
And some ah older lady responded, kind of scary. He's going be walking around Texas with this big ass knife.
00:30:25
echo_blades
And it's like I like, you know, I guess, I guess.
00:30:27
Denis Tyrell
It's Texas there, there are people carrying way more dangerous things.
00:30:30
echo_blades
I mean, if you knew the lady, she's she's an older lady, but she put out, you know, laughing out loud after it. But I was just like, I guess, yeah, that could be, you know, forget, you know, we're in the knife world and we don't think twice about, you know, brandishing swords and daggers of all sizes.
00:30:45
echo_blades
and But to, you know, the normal folk, it's like, hmm.
00:30:46
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. That's why they don't have blade show in California anymore.
00:30:52
echo_blades
Speaking of, i just got back from Southern California and I flew into Long Beach, which um i had a very nostalgic moment about the origin of my very first Blade Show when I went down there to to see you on that impromptu drive with a my wife when we went there.
00:31:11
echo_blades
um And um' I have some so just... I always say there's this, you know, NorCal, SoCal thing because it's a real thing, right? but
00:31:22
Denis Tyrell
for sure it is.
00:31:22
echo_blades
and But when I'm there, i it's not that I don't like the area because there's a lot of things to like. The the traffic 100% is 10 times worse than here.
00:31:36
echo_blades
It is worse. um And i ended up going from Long Beach to Beverly Hills um in the past. I don't know. It was 24 miles an hour and 20 minutes.
00:31:50
echo_blades
And it wasn't even that much traffic. Like it it could have been like two and a half, three hours easy and like rush hour, but Holy shit. The amount of like terrain of of differences of quality of life from, from there to where I was, it went from like long beach is like, okay, it's not, You know, the airport area is not that bad.
00:32:11
echo_blades
Then you start going through and on your way through the outskirts of LA and then you get down there and it was like, I don't know, you know, just, oh my God.
00:32:18
Denis Tyrell
It's good. There's some sketchy areas down. What
00:32:20
echo_blades
I was like, you know, cause it's not like it was worse than here or anything, but it was just like, it was very, a lot more compact. You go from like these patches of, um although they're, they're homeless or transient community, I should say, has overtaken the overpasses, which I thought was pretty cute.
00:32:37
echo_blades
I haven't seen that yet.
00:32:38
Denis Tyrell
what do you mean overtaking the overpass? What do you mean they're on top now?
00:32:40
echo_blades
Yeah, when like they're on top. Yeah. So you're driving down the freeway and you just get this camp of, ah you know, tents going over on the overpass.
00:32:46
Denis Tyrell
No way.
00:32:48
echo_blades
Yeah. So I couldn't tell if they were like small pedestrian. they're They're like one or two lanes, not like huge overpasses, but there's definitely a sidewalk on them and they're you're not walking across there without, you know.
00:33:01
echo_blades
knocking on a bunch of tent doors. So, uh, and then you get into Beverly Hills and, uh, we're doing a ah job at the, uh, the, uh, BMW there. So that was, uh, it was just, it was a trip to get through all of there. And then you could quickly tell I was out of my element in that place as far as dollars were concerned. So, um, but then I did get to see the, the typical, um, or the stereotypical, uh,
00:33:29
echo_blades
Mexican dude with the with the high socks at the at the corner.
00:33:32
Denis Tyrell
Oh, and the and the plaid shirt, the top button.
00:33:33
echo_blades
Shorts with the high socks. Yeah. I took a video. He didn't have that, but he did.
00:33:38
Denis Tyrell
What?
00:33:39
echo_blades
I did some shorts just just a right side right right above the knees and the socks pulled right up to it. And I was like... which
00:33:50
Denis Tyrell
What?
00:33:50
echo_blades
so Sock check, homie. ah if yeah you you You got to know. If you know, you know. But that yeah, that was probably the highlight. um Yeah, interesting interesting place. I was only there for was there for two days, but in and out. And then I got to board the plane from Long Beach. They let you they dis and they let you off the plane from the front and the back.
00:34:13
echo_blades
So I fucked up and I put my bag in the middle. on my way from the front when I was loading and then they like, everybody gets out and then I'm sitting there like an asshole while everybody's going, yeah, going from the front and the back.
00:34:23
Denis Tyrell
Burbank was that.
00:34:25
echo_blades
And then we got to load up from the back. It was, it was kind of it was interesting, bit but, but yeah, so that's why I wasn't here last week.
00:34:28
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:34:33
echo_blades
I wasn't out golfing. um But Dave did a fantastic job. I, I, I liked the, ah well, I just want to say thank you, Dave, for saving the audience from, from Dennis.
00:34:44
echo_blades
Yeah. A hundred percent. So, yeah.
00:34:46
Denis Tyrell
piss off.
00:34:47
echo_blades
And then hearing you talk about the the football was was my my favorite-y cringe moment of all. I can't believe you brought up football and at the very end of it, you said, didn't watch the game.
00:35:00
echo_blades
I was like, God damn it.
00:35:01
Denis Tyrell
I said i said at the front at the beginning that I didn't watch the game because it was two of my least favorite teams, but I watched all the highlights.
00:35:09
Denis Tyrell
So I
00:35:09
echo_blades
I caught it at the end where you're like, I didn't actually watch it.
00:35:11
echo_blades
I was like, good God, man.
00:35:13
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, I saw all the plays, all of the the ah Patriots getting sacked like a million times.
00:35:13
echo_blades
Just went
00:35:21
echo_blades
Dude, I thought they were going to break the punt record. Yeah, horrible game. Just the absolute worst worst thing ever.
00:35:24
Denis Tyrell
Oh, I think it was the the best game to watch highlights only because it was...
00:35:26
echo_blades
And the fact that the...
00:35:30
echo_blades
Yeah, and the in the morning, there was a ah ah guy in the lobby um at the hotel that was wearing a Seahawks shirt. And I and i almost, i I swear on the stack of Beebles that I almost told him to go stand on the other side of the room. Like, get the fuck away from me.
00:35:48
echo_blades
The only thing that stopped me was I could tell it wasn't a new shirt. So I gave him a little bit of credit because he probably was a fan, you know, prior to that. But yeah, there is not a single team. I, I just, that is that and the giants.
00:36:02
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, there's there's there's not a lot of love for the Seahawks here in California.
00:36:03
echo_blades
So,
00:36:08
echo_blades
Yeah. And then they, they come and they, yeah, they did. They eat Turkey on our 50 yard line and then they celebrate a super bowl on our field. Just like, get out of here. They just can't the disgrace the disrespect.
00:36:20
echo_blades
But, uh, yeah, anyways, a good show. Um,
00:36:23
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, it was good having Dave on and talking all things ABS while you weren't here. It was the best timing.
00:36:28
echo_blades
Yep. I think you, yeah, just for you, I was very happy to step out of the out of the way and, you know, let you get your, uh, ABS talk on, but no, it was, it was a good, good thing.
00:36:41
echo_blades
Thank God he was there though. I probably would have fell asleep on the way home driving back from the airport, but
00:36:49
Denis Tyrell
Dave's a good dude. It's all always good to hang out with him. And he also will be in Texas. So looking forward to seeing him again.

00:38:01
Denis Tyrell
Killing it.
00:38:02
echo_blades
ah Oh my God. i I, I don't get stuck on, a it takes a special thing to kind of like in the death scroll, you know, to, to kind of like stop.
00:38:04
Denis Tyrell
Killing it.
00:38:16
echo_blades
And then I'll go back and I look, but man, I must've watched the, that, the, the post that he put about the, the and undulation pattern was just fucking phenomenal, dude.
00:38:26
Denis Tyrell
Is this the one he made the cleaver out of, or is this different one
00:38:26
echo_blades
That, uh, no, it's a different one. It's this week. Dude, it it was.
00:38:34
Denis Tyrell
one? It was just a piece of band. It wasn't a knife, It was just a piece mask.
00:38:36
echo_blades
No, he made it into a knife, the knife, the the chef knife, just just the way it was flowing and like the the depth and like it really highlights that.
00:38:38
Denis Tyrell
Okay. i i Maybe I haven't seen it.
00:38:47
echo_blades
I now completely understand the. um The intrigue. that you have with the potential for, for a gradient. Yeah. That, that was just busy, beautiful, just fan. Just, I just, I shout out Gabe. I know he's used to that these days, but that was super.
00:39:08
Denis Tyrell
yeah I'm pretty sure he's going to be in Texas.
00:39:11
echo_blades
You should be.
00:39:12
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. No, i'm I think i so either I saw him comment on something or I think he's going to be in Texas. or maybe Or no, maybe I'm just thinking of um Austria because I know he's going to be in Austria. Maybe that's what I'm thinking of. By the way I did book my table for Austria.
00:39:30
echo_blades
Oh, good for you.
00:39:31
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. ah Because ah I heard Martin on Hustle and Grind talking about – that there was only a few tables left and, and I perked up and said, Oh, I better get on that.
00:39:43
Denis Tyrell
And then, and then he actually mentioned, called me out or ah or Ryan did.
00:39:43
echo_blades
Yeah, honestly.
00:39:47
Denis Tyrell
And then Martin said, Hey, you better get your ass and gear in gear and, and get a table. So I did.
00:39:55
echo_blades
That's exciting.
00:39:55
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. So, and tables are actually not expensive for that show comparatively to, I think it's like a hundred and 180 bucks or something for a table. It's very, yeah.
00:40:05
echo_blades
Nice. Yeah, that's reasonable.
00:40:08
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Very reasonable.
00:40:09
echo_blades
Especially if you're coming from out of town.
00:40:11
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Yeah. Um, yeah. So, uh, yeah, it's all about shows now. um My life is like between blade shows. Apparently.
00:40:22
echo_blades
Well, that should be the focus from a retired maker. That is appropriate.
00:40:30
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, actually, yeah you know what else? I've kind of I have been and this is all the you can thank Instagram for this because I started watching. You're going to groan. I know you're going to hit the boring button, but i this is like for you. Golf is now becoming my pool thing. So I've been watching people play billiards.
00:40:52
Denis Tyrell
death
00:40:55
Denis Tyrell
Pool. Pool. So i'm I'm watching and now I'm practicing a lot more and I bought a new pool cue, which just came yesterday, which is awesome.
00:41:01
echo_blades
remember
00:41:04
Denis Tyrell
um So, yeah, I'm ready to kick some Jared ass again. And yeah, again.
00:41:09
echo_blades
Again, i a year ago today, I ran you in coy right out of your house.
00:41:17
Denis Tyrell
and You won two games in a row and he was celebrating.
00:41:19
echo_blades
I ran, I ran the board at least three times. yeah
00:41:24
Denis Tyrell
why
00:41:25
echo_blades
It was the most fantastic novice performance ever with an old cue stick. So see, it's not the cue stick. It's not the equipment.
00:41:35
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, right.
00:41:36
Denis Tyrell
um Maybe when when maybe with Toby's here, I wonder if Toby's a pool player.
00:41:36
echo_blades
No.
00:41:37
echo_blades
dan
00:41:40
Denis Tyrell

Sports Commentary and Conclusion
00:49:52
Denis Tyrell

echo_blades
So
00:49:53
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. ah You've been watching the Olympics?
00:49:57
echo_blades

00:50:00
Denis Tyrell
I love it.
00:50:00
echo_blades
women's luge is about to be a new category on Pornhub. It has to be.
00:50:09
Denis Tyrell
I actually haven't seen it. Now you're really making me want to go watch it.
00:50:11
echo_blades
Oh my God. The whiplash, the ricochet. I mean, if whatever you're, do it is. Yeah. An amazing sport. Absolutely. The athleticism for them to lay down on that sled and just slide down.
00:50:23
Denis Tyrell
luge is luge the one where they go down feet first or is that skeleton head first or feet first
00:50:28
echo_blades
ah This is, this is, this is face firstest there been they first.
00:50:36
Denis Tyrell
with women going down face first
00:50:39
echo_blades
And then then they, they will bump off the wall and, oh my God. So yeah, I'm now officially a heathen and ah dirty old man, but.
00:50:50
Denis Tyrell
we We need to put an an over 18 sensory warning on this show.
00:50:52
echo_blades
yeah yeah ah yeah I could, it was, yeah it was brought to my attention and I was sleeping on it. And then i kind of haphazardly saw it. I was just like, oh my.
00:51:06
echo_blades
so
00:51:06
Denis Tyrell
Well, the the reason I... Because you know the skeleton. I think it's called skeleton where they go down feet first. I could see that one being even more interesting, but... um
00:51:16
echo_blades
I mean, i guess it depends on what kind of, person you are, but yeah, this, yeah, heart hard to beat this. No fun intended. Yeah, that is a, yeah.
00:51:28
echo_blades
I, yeah, you, yeah, do yourself a favor.
00:51:28
Denis Tyrell
No, i i watch I did watch the highlights of the men's bobsled of them. like
00:51:37
echo_blades
Of course you did.
00:51:38
Denis Tyrell
that would No, but do do you know what I'm talking about where they miss the sled?
00:51:41
echo_blades
No, no.
00:51:43
Denis Tyrell
Oh, man. you got it you got
00:51:44
echo_blades
Okay. All right.
00:51:45
Denis Tyrell
You got Google that one. Because, you know, like they're running and it's like the four-man bobsled and the first guy jumps in, the next guy just jumps in and fucking misses and everybody bails.
00:51:48
echo_blades
Okay.
00:51:56
echo_blades
Oh, Lord.
00:51:57
Denis Tyrell
ah
00:51:57
echo_blades
Oh, that's fucked up.
00:51:58
Denis Tyrell
It is the funniest thing ever.
00:52:01
echo_blades
Dude, that's great.
00:52:02
Denis Tyrell
And we were we were talking about like you know like the Jamaican bobsled team and like the movie Cool Runnings.
00:52:07
echo_blades
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:52:08
Denis Tyrell
like that's
00:52:09
echo_blades
That's always in my...
00:52:10
Denis Tyrell
That's who they look like.
00:52:11
echo_blades
Oh, gotcha. That's fucking great.
00:52:14
Denis Tyrell
is is pretty funny yeah go go go google that and uh and check it out oh
00:52:14
echo_blades
That's good stuff. as
00:52:20
echo_blades
Yeah, that was pretty cool. um What else here? Yeah, off to off to Washington. ah yeah
00:52:32
echo_blades
Now I can't even remember. oh what did you do for, you did a Triple T not too long ago, huh?
00:52:38
Denis Tyrell
Oh yeah, i didn't talk about that because Dave was on last week. Yeah, no, I made the switchable magnet mag chuck, which a lot of people for the surface grinding attachment, which a lot of people have asked me to make or to do a video on.
00:52:52
Denis Tyrell
And um the the magnet part is really easy. So it's well, I mean, having having the machinery that I do makes it easier than most.
00:53:04
echo_blades
Dude, that was a massive drill bit. Like, would you say it was one, one one on an eighth?
00:53:09
Denis Tyrell
one and an eight one no one and three three sixteenths yeah you want an eighth or one and one i think it's one and three sixteenths
00:53:10
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:53:14
echo_blades
I don't know i just saw it it set up in the machine.
00:53:18
echo_blades
yeah I was just like, good God. that That's a big bit.
00:53:21
Denis Tyrell
yeah but it's an annular cutter and you could you have either have to have a mill or you have to have a mag drill um to use one of those because it's a special collet and a special arbor for those things
00:53:32
echo_blades
Gotcha.
00:53:34
Denis Tyrell
But they rock. They make the most beautiful holes. um But yeah, that part is easy. The hardest part of that build is getting the bait, like doing those at and the ends and making it nine a perfect 90. That took me the longest of anything.
00:53:54
Denis Tyrell
And like tapping the holes and putting the bolts through, it was that was a pain in the ass.
00:54:01
echo_blades
I gotcha.
00:54:01
Denis Tyrell
Because it was like, if I had a knee mill and I could have put that thing, like, you know, it's 12 inches long. If I could have put that end-wise in a mill and I could have drilled the holes, but I had to drill the holes with a, like a manual drill because I can't put anything 13 inches.
00:54:19
echo_blades
I'm following you. Yep.
00:54:23
Denis Tyrell
I guess I could have done it in my big stand-up drill press, which I'm thinking back, I probably should have done it that way. but yeah
00:54:33
echo_blades
Yeah, I think I'm not... I understand the limitations because I've done, Jeff and I have done some things where we had to square up pieces like that, but on the big bridge port, it's nothing.
00:54:46
echo_blades
Plenty of room.
00:54:46
Denis Tyrell
right yeah yeah with a big knee mill you just lower the knee and yeah it's easy but when you have a little you know you have like eight inches uh
00:54:47
echo_blades
no No, not even. Yeah. Yeah. Yep.
00:54:55
echo_blades
It's okay. It's okay. No judgment here, but it's a safe zone. You can be little all you want.
00:55:01
Denis Tyrell
ah Yeah, my little mill can't handle it.
00:55:03
Denis Tyrell
so
00:55:03
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:55:04
echo_blades
that's That's great.
00:55:05
Denis Tyrell
But day yeah, it was it and it ended up being great.
00:55:06

00:55:08
Denis Tyrell
It was an easy build. um One of my Patreon members, I didn't actually need the chuck. I just did it for the video and then sold it to one of my Patreon members for basically the price of the materials.
00:55:21
Denis Tyrell
So, um yeah, if you're looking to make um a mag chuck for a surface or make a surface grinding attachment with switchable magnets, it is not that hard. It's something you can do at home. It's actually it's easier to make than the permanent magnets, the permanent magnets.
00:55:21
echo_blades
cool.
00:55:39
Denis Tyrell
you kind of really need a mill. This one you could do without a mill. You just have to figure out how to drill those holes and get like a hole
00:55:43
echo_blades
Gotcha.
00:55:48
Denis Tyrell
um wholes saw. You could get a hole saw in that size. and
00:55:54
echo_blades
Yeah, but the on-off magnets are just a game changer, like comparative to the to the permanent ones, dude. That's just fantastic.
00:56:00
Denis Tyrell
For certain things, for for knives especially, yeah, they're awesome.
00:56:02
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:56:04
echo_blades
Yep.
00:56:05
Denis Tyrell
um The reason i i said it in the video, I don't, my surface grinding attachment has the permanent magnets on it because I have the big stand up one and the one I use for the surface grinding attachment is just to take the mill scale off of steel.
00:56:20
Denis Tyrell
And it's a pain in the ass to use the switchable magnets because it takes forever to switch them on and switch them off for every little piece. So. That's why I like the permanent magnet for that purpose. But again, I have the big stand up one.
00:56:31
Denis Tyrell
So yeah, I don't need the, the precision on the, on the attachment.
00:56:32
echo_blades
Gotcha. Following you.
00:56:36
echo_blades
Yeah, but you don't pinch your or my delicate little hands. I really snap my shit in those things. It's like a plop because you can get them pretty strong.
00:56:46
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:56:47
echo_blades
So anyways, I think it's a great idea. Awesome video. You did great.
00:56:51
Denis Tyrell
Thank you.
00:56:51
echo_blades
What's up, folks? Welcome to another Triple T Thursday. For those just joining us, that's Tools, Tips, and Talk where we'll discuss info for the knife maker.
00:57:00
Denis Tyrell
There won't be a build, there won't be a video this week because i got to get on a plane, crack of dawn tomorrow, and I didn't get my ass in gear to record one early, so no video this week.
00:57:08
echo_blades
Yes.

Denis Tyrell
Next week I'll do one.
00:57:17
echo_blades
Right on.
00:57:18
Denis Tyrell
And I can't do it on this laser because this laser actually doesn't get publicly released until March. But look for a ah big review video on this thing once I figure out how it works and get it assembled and all that good stuff.
00:57:33
echo_blades
Nice.
00:57:34
Denis Tyrell
But yeah, I'm looking forward to doing these things. the This is a piece of glass that has a lasered image inside the glass.
00:57:44
echo_blades
Oh yeah. You guys did a bunch of this right here ah last week. Just in case you missed it.
00:57:52
Denis Tyrell
Oh.
00:57:52
echo_blades
A bunch of show and tell. and it was kind of weird to be on the, on this, the the other side of it. Cause I'm always on this side where I can see what we're talking about. But you're, you know, when you guys were like, Oh yeah, look at this. Look at this. Look at, I was like, Oh, that's, that really is a bummer.
00:58:10
echo_blades
So na nany na na na, I saw the glass.
00:58:14
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, this is what I'm showing is a piece of glass that has the like the white image, 3D image inside it. Well, that's what this new laser can do among being a 100 watt fiber.
00:58:23
echo_blades
Wow, that's cool. That's super cool.
00:58:28
Denis Tyrell
So yeah, excited about that.
00:58:29
echo_blades

You in a luge?
00:58:50
Denis Tyrell
The what? For the luge? a That one is kind of...
00:58:54
echo_blades
I don't think I would have the same reaction if were going down the mountain, buddy. Sorry. yeah
00:59:01
Denis Tyrell
That new knife is kind of luge-ish because it's a hollow grind.
00:59:03
echo_blades
Yeah. Jeez.
00:59:05
Denis Tyrell
But...
00:59:06
echo_blades
