Only James may would refer to that case as a Sarcophagus! Very nice knife, that kydex sheathe is plenty durable for in the kitchen! Alot of nice features there!

5:40 oh lawl. That's like level 10 old person compliment. :D No offense!

Wow very nice 👍🏻 🔪

How often did you cut your fingers since then? B-)

awesome knife

Nice Micarta and Decorative pin

Can you own those in the UK

I'm not reading through the 2000 comments to see if anyone has mentioned it but as far as I aware a scabbard is rigid and a sheath is flexible. Sweet knife.

Tôi thích cách ông ấy mở hộp 📦

What a great gift........a piece of art.......hope you treat it well James.

wow! A knife that sort of cuts through a carrot!! Just kidding!! Beautiful work!!

I guess it’s the thought that counts

😅 😅 😅

Lol

Ur knife not as sharp a it could be

форма интересная, но по факту колун

Not sharp..poorly balanced...any design should be fit for purpose...show over usefullness

Here is Captain Slow. The hero and undisputedly the wise one from the whole Top Gear bunch. Long live the Captain Slow !!! To the maker. Excellent knife !!!

Maine is the farthest north eastern state In USA!

At last! May has the sharpest tool in the box! 😅

😀😀😀👍👍👍

Looks like a takeoff of a Japanese Nakiri or vegetable chopping knife. From the brief view of the handle, it looked like it could be some type of Micarta. Definitely a beautiful knife.

Sssskabbard..... 😂

Cutting knife? No way!

Hey Bim guess what? You got a nice knife.

USA Comedy!

doesn't seem to be for cooking...

Да он не режет нихрена.. - колет, как топор..

I have always found blade fetishitsts to be more than a little bit creepy.

Oi, do yoo hav yor loisencse for that knoife

why would you make someone a knife that nice and have it arrive dull like a pebble? If this was a proper edge it would cut through the stem of that veg by its own weight and minimal pressure...and not tear at all.

U could chop your glasses to make another 5 minutes video clip...

Wasting my time

It's gorgeous but it cuts vegetables very poorly. Meat perhaps?

Who cares

The cut looks horrible 🤔... Is that just my opinion? 🤔

This film made me surprisingly happy. 🙏

The handle looked like what is called Mikata. It is a composite of cloth material and resin.

Mr. May that is a proper Thank You! Very fine workmanship on that Knife Sir! Great job! Mr. Willey! I love the knife an the sheath an the case! I would love it to death an Mr. May I am sure will treasure it.

Watches 30 seconds of a 8:40 video about a guy opening a box with a knife in it. Hard to make that interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Funny fact ... ij my country uopu can carry this knife in public ... and nex fact ... nobody attact to another by knife ... if this happened, is all newspaper full of this ...because this happened once per ~10 year or more ... we can carry in public guns (hidden) if you have gun licence ... wellcome in Czech republic - FREEDOM

micarta handle

He makes a funny noise when he gets his chopper out.

Gday James just saw your knife skills for the first time, and I'm really surprised you still have all your fingers. 👍

A sheathing flexible and usually made of leather A scabbard is rigid and usually made of wood or sometimes metal lol

He just going to use it to cut cheese

I am a barer on knife, obviously always legal carry in UK. Not in UK anymore, so I can express my opinion. This knife is for different purposes I am using my knives for, so I can send you an amazing blacksmith who's work will definitely satisfy the look of yours for a nice and functional knife. If you are interested, just ping me and I will show you what a master craftsmanship looks like. Have tested personally several knives and the quality and finish is outstanding. Have a great day and don't use your knife without knowing what is the steel etc. Hardness anything, but other than that I do like you from the program. Just not quite yet there. Kind regards.

Lucky man

Shame the maker didn't say what steel it was

5:26 i died LOL he put the glasses down as he wanted to try chopping something, like he a 20 years old or something

I seen axes sharper than this knife

That's a gorgeous knife.

I can't remember what the material is, but the handle is not wood, sadly.

I was really hoping he would see how sharp it was on his wrists !

those carrots look terrible haha awesome knife :)

And the words of my forefathers f*** off

How you going to carve a Spitfire with that thing.

that is to thick to chop veg

oi you got a loicense for that mate?

pls take care for this blade. i guess it is carbon steel depending on the sharpness an this baldes never forgive water and fingerprints depending on sweat...

Looks like a competition chopper slash tanto style

Weapons are tools.

Needs sharpening

it looks like a camp knife , a very beautiful work of art camp knife, I really hope he realises what he has there

Called a "Chopper"

Lovely looking knife, definitely a knife that will last a very long time👍

I'm Australian and I was named after a guy my dad worked with in the 70s 👍

See this is what I'm talking about! This guy has a service based on his skill, and not only does he get to send a hand-built gift to someone he admires, but he has just engaged in the best form of advertisement. Coca-Cola is generally regarded as one of, if not the most recognized brand name globally, certainly in the United States. Coca-Cola in 2019 spent 816 million dollars on Advertising just in the United States. In 2019 there were 328.2 million people in the United States I don't know how much it cost Coca-Cola to make a 2L bottle of Coca-Cola, but it's significantly less than 2 for $3 they charge down the road. So not even factoring in the difference between the cost of manufacture and the retail price, with the amount of money that Coca-Cola spent on advertising in 2019, I could go down to my local store and buy a pair of 2 L of Coca-Cola for every man woman and child in the US. Modern advertising is an atrocity that gets ad execs rich while jacking up the price of every product and service, while not actually achieving the goal it's supposedly set out to accomplish. Well done, sir. I 100% approve of your business practice.

This is definately not a kitchen knife...

Sounds like American blade geometry.. carrot wedge

How was able to ship a knife from US. Ain’t that like illegal? lol

Diddent he make a knife for wayn bobbets wife ,😂😂

basically asmr

Stay backs , HES BRITISH

James May meets Nigella Lawson

Looks like micarta scales

What a wonderful object. A a thoughtful gift.

“I do like a knife!” James May 2021.

I am afraid this "tool" will end up under the chefs knife

Its one reason to become famous...people just wish to give you the most beautiful things for free. Except politicians...accepting gifts can get you in trouble...but for those there are special "channels" to receive gifts..

Doesn't actually look that sharp?

7:02 James May curcimsizing his self with an artisan knife

Looks like a seax blade Viking style

you can use it on Jeremy

I believe that knife would be best for processing big pieces of meat...orangutan or Clarkson....its nicer than the machete u ...

Do you have a licence for that? 🤣

I would imagine Luke Willey would be horrified to see James using that knife to cut through the poster!

How come this wasn't confiscated at customs, as I had a hunting knife confiscated!

Wow! Just wow! How jealous am I?? That is a thing of beauty. I'm off to Google the guy.

the knife is blunt

It's basically the hand of the U.S. giving England the bird, Captain Slow...

That reaction at 4:22 has got to be the most authentic look of suprize I've ever seen (apart from any doctor who ever asked me to cough).

If you like knives you must have a jacklore! Perfect bushcraft knife from a uk maker

Didn't look as sharp as espected, but the knife is amazing and it will hold his edge once done... unless it's made of iron instead of stainless steel

I can watch James May do virtually anything. Eminently likable, entertaining and intelligent. Bravo Mr May.

Competition chopper

Things taste better when their fresh as well, how old were the carrots.

This is a precision tool for making julienne or very fine stripes of vegetables...

That is considered a "competition chopper".

gonna loose your fingers chopping like that
