I bought all the different grits of Cubitron belts and hoped it would be enough to shape a few knives. I had previously bought the (Harbor Freight) cheap zircon belts and it took several of those just to sharpen some garden hoes I had. These belts outshine those cheap belts by several miles. I have made 2 knives so far and these belts seem like they aren't really broken in yet.

Thanks this was from the 1080 and the 15n20 that I purchased and my first Damascus that I was able to make something from. Thanks again

I got tired of tearing up my jeans in the shop, decided to finally invest in some real work pants and I couldn't be happier. Great quality and fit, I actually received some compliments from my wife.

I actually bought the knife kit as a gift to myself for Christmas. Have not started building it yet but I’m excited to start the process. Your website was very easy to use and the product arrived as scheduled

Comfortable, YKK zipper is great, 12 inch deep pockets is great.Snaps rattle when not engaged but feel quality and is only my personal preference they be silent. I caught my pant leg on fire using a cuttoff wheel and the flames didnt spread that fast. Id buy a version with knee pad slots and a holstering ring for tools.

Took a while to be delivered to the UK but love them that much I have brought 3 pairs now so I have spares when the others need replacing. Best set of cargo trousers. Excellent material. Really strong and comfortable to wear all day long.

These are great pants. They are tough, well made and comfortable. Top quality all the way. I should have purchased more than one pair.

These pants are hands down some of the most comfortable works pants I’ve ever owned and have incredible pocket space.

Does exactly what it says. Plenty of power in a compact 110v package. Great if your short on space or power options.

Fantastic fit. The dense, durable fabric is ideal for the worksite. Only upset I have with these is that the pockets are really tight and are difficult to work when in a crouched or seated position. I found myself preferring to leave the pockets empty of things I frequently use such as hand tools, my keys and phone. Ultimately, these pants are a treat to work in.

Very comfy material and a good fit! Only minor "complaint" is that the logo & text weren't white like in the pics but slightly red. Not really a problem though, looks better in my opinion

Tait A.
Great product! I love Alecs channel, I watch it quite often. I've been using a modified 3 lbs sledge as my hammer, which works fine. I had always wanted to get (or create) a true blacksmiths hammer and its made a difference! The handle finish is a bit sticky at first which caused some blisters, but hey, gotta build them callouses. My anvil is a solid cylinder of steel, as you can see in the picture, which really indicates just how well you can use whatever is at hand to create, and thats ok!

I got this knife kit for my husband’s birthday. He is having SO much fun building and designing the knife the way he wants it. The materials that came in the kit are all super high quality and easy to work with. This is the second knife kit I’ve gotten him and it definitely won’t be the last 😊

Love these pants! Very thick. Feel really tough. 32/34 fit is nice. usually a 32 waist is a tad loose but these are snug. Only worn about 8 times so far so can’t speak about longevity. I wish they were around $50-60 I would buy more.

This was the 3rd purchase by our family, because these pants are an incredible product. Durable material, well fitting, and impeccably made. Customer service was top notch in sorting out a mistake I made in ordering. Will be buying more in years to come.

I went from a 1x30 to this beast. It has been the best decision I’ve made. Small compact size for my small shop. Very very impressed with this machine.

This pair of pants is so useful for the amount of pocket storage it holds. They are great blacksmith pants, motorcycle pants, and they are quite fashionable.

They always feel super sturdy when I’ve worn them in the shop, but at the same time very breathable and surprisingly comfy!

Immediately used the drift to correct a bad socket on a good hammer, and the fullering tools are applicable to any fuller operations. Gorgeous look and feel to everything. Top notch, gents!

Jason D.
I love the hammer head, itself. My only problem is that before I can use it, I need to replace the handle. It was so sticky with the smelly pine tar that after setting it on the butcher block countertop that’s in the picture, it even soaked into that counter and I had to sand the counter to get the smell out. I won’t buy any other tools that have that pine tar finish. It’s really awful. I just hope to find time to actually carve and sand a new handle so I can finally use the hammer.

Great quality shirt. My husband loves it. He wore it the next day after it arrived in the mail. Thanks for the entertaining videos and high quality merch! Would have posted a photo but the shirt is in the laundry to be washed... again.

What a great tool! It is great to do business with a company that is willing to make sure you are happy with their product. I’ve used the broach to put a hidden tang on a stag elk and it turned out fantastic! Thanks for having a great tool

All tools arrived extremely fast (impressive given the international shipping) and were absolutely perfect. The quality is unmatched and the attention to detail is evident. Would absolutely recommend buying this kit.

Tried so many sets of cargo trousers, either to thin or not got deep enough pockets for example of flaws in them. Finally found a set of trousers that are comfortable to wear and enough pockets that are deep enough to use them properly. Made of a thick material so hard wearing. Well worth the money you spend and the waiting time to get them to the UK. I had a mix up of the wrong trousers originally and the support team where brilliant to get it resolved and the right item sent to me. Couldn'...

I purchased the 2.5 pound “square” rounding hammer (step in the squared circle—there, I said it). I usually use a 3.5 pound hammer, but I needed a 2.5 for more detailed work. I actually use it now as my go-to hammer. The balance is very nice, and it is undoubtedly hardened and tempered to perfection. Trust me. I also noticed the face dressings on it were done meticulously and with purpose. The edges of the face offer even more contact options—it’s just a very well planned and executed product...

This is the best long sleeve shirt I have ever worn! It’s soft, comfortable, and keeps me warm in the cold. This shirt is also perfect for forging, grinding, etc. It keeps the hot sparks of me. At first I ordered the wrong size. I emailed them and they got back to me within a day and I got to order the right size which fits me perfectly. Thanks Guys!

I’ve made a couple of broaches in the past but this is in a different class entirely. Very sharp and removes material quickly.

Absolutely wonderful edc blade. Disappears into your clothing and lends itself to very swift deployment. Also the kydex is great too!

It is as much a show piece as it is a work horse! I find myself smelling the pine tar finish often. It’s hard to decide if I should get to work with it, or just stare at it! I love this hammer.

This is a great knife. I've been using it as an EDC since I received it, and it hasn't let me down.
