Jacklore, Knives, Updates, August 2023

Please note I do not take orders I just like building the knives with what materials I have in stock. I am currently not sending knives Oversea's, so you have to be in the UK if you want to get one of my knives.
Things may change in the future but at the moment the risks involved with oversea's shipping are too high and it's not worth the stress I feel when I send a knife oversea's.
Also although I rely largely on my knife making for my livlihood, it is rather a small scale enterprise, the knives take me an age to build and my output is low.
I also have a partially disabled wife to care for and dogs that need good long walks.
I also have lots of Camping equipment that needs to be used and motorbikes and bicycles that need riding so what I'm saying is:
Money isn't the priority, a good work life balance is, so I run my small business my way.
I hope you understand.
Please don't send me gifts unless I know you.
"Beware of accepting gifts from strangers" is the quote!
Often times they expect quite a lot in return!
The other wise quote is an Inuit saying, "With our gifts we make him a slave"
So please keep your gifts, Your friendship is however appreciated

    Oh wow! Usual brilliant and beautiful pieces of art. I've wanted one for so long now, but I've resigned myself to the fact, that it being such a lottery.. I'm unlikely to own one. I'll just keep watching, and keep admiring your beautiful work. I have held two of your Classics in my hand though, belonging to friends. And that was a privilege!

    Works of art as usual Sandy. Couple questions; Have you considered taking on an apprentice/employee to help around the shop, and to pass your knowledge and experience too? Also, have you ever tried out using wooden pins? You could use matching wood so they blend in, or contrasting wood to stand out. Just a thought if you're looking for something different. Keep up the beautiful work, and thank you for passing along so much of your knowledge!

    The great thing about your knives Sandy is the personal story behind each one you produce. When you sell a knife it is not some sole less object that has been mass produced passing through multiple hands on a mechanised production line… Each one has a character of its own because it has been personally crafted by yourself to the highest standard with the maximum attention to detail.

    Fabulous work as always, Mr. Jack the Knife. Sorry to hear that Mandy has been unwell - best wishes to her. Have often wondered if you have considered a ‘flat grind’ model? Strikes me that the longer-handled Wasp (?) might make a useful ‘camp/cooking knife’ with a flat grind. Just musing, really. Thanks for the updates - always of interest.

    Sandy, lovely wee video the knives look grand, one day I will get one. But like you I'm self employed and unlike you I'm nearly 70, Haha, so money as I'm sure you know seems to be harder to earn these days. I do hope Mandy's condition stabilises and she can get out and about again soon, especially on her new ebike which suits her better than a standard bike. I apprieciate you must be run off your feet, so the work put into your channels is a bonus for us following you. ATB Big Dave Scotland

    Well, as I have always said, you are definitely a Master Craftsman! The Classic and those Camp Knives look great, but I have a question - Do you have to stabilize Dessert Iron Wood? I would imagine it would be hard because it is naturally dense, almost like it is already stabilized by nature. Anyway, I am honored to test that Whittler for you, just need to make arrangements to pick it up when you are finished. Wishing Mandy, your Family and you Health and Happiness!

  • @WiltshireMan

    @WiltshireMan

    Dan The profile of the Mini Whittler will change slightly once the bevels are ground, I'm going to put on a lean angle so it should be quite slicy. I shall post this knife to you as a gift and as the wood being fitted is Purple heart it should get through customs OK. Regarding Desert Iron Wood, it won't absorb resin to any great extent so no point in trying to stabilise it. It even sinks in water!
