Congrats John and Co! I've been following since the garage days, and it's been a helluva show. Cheers!!!

Been following you guys since the garage days. It’s absolutely insane so see how far you have come! Cheers to 10 years! 👊🏼🍻📈🔥

I never thought you would still be making knives for this many years. Great to see the demand is still there for your products. All best for your 10th anniversary. You deserve it.

I went to your website and was blown away by the variety in the knives you produce. It's no wonder the quality of your products are amazing. Appreciate the shop tour. Definitely earned your success. Congratulations!

MAZEL TOV ! MY how time does fly. What a wonderful history and the best REALITY (type) stream on the web! Stay motivated John & Erik... By the way you both look marvelous! Thank you for intellectually honestly sharing your voice.

Huge congrats on 10 years of success! I noticed what appeared to be a half dozen transformers around. If you could possibly go to a standard shop voltage you could save yourself some good coin by letting the power company feed you the proper voltage. I would bet if you could ditch those transformers you would cut your power bill 5% or more every month.

Awesome watching John & Eric's 10 year shop tour! I remember these guy's skateboarding,building CNC lathe's and anodizing machines. It's been a trip. LOL

Congratulations guys! It has been an amazing journey so far and it is a honour to see it unfold :) wish you all the best for things to come!

Gratulations!!! You have inspired me to start my own CNC shop. Thank you so much for the videos. Truely inspirational!

Congrats on 10 years!! and many more to come! I did not know I needed this video today, but I did :)

Congrats on 10 Years. It is great to see how far you have come over the years.

Congratulations! That sucker needs a "Yellow Submarine" sticker and a periscope😎

You guys should do 10 years of progress wall plaques ,either for the whole business or each station. Would be great for you guys to display with all the video and old parts how far you have come with your product and processes not only as a reminder to yourselves but also for anyone new entering your company. I have watched many of your videos, KMT like 3-4 times as it's so inspiring, would be good for you guys to have that daily as a reminder of how far you have come. All the best for the next 10 years and thanks for bringing us along with you.

You continue to inspire and the audience continues to grow. Thanks for sharing all the lessons learned and knowledge with the masses and contributing to the community like few have. Cheers.

so awesome :D I think it's been abut 4 years ago that I binge watched all the "Knive Making Tuesday" videos and followed you ever since

Congratulations! I love to see all the stuff you are making, and I've been following since the garage days. Good Job ;-)

It's cool to see how much your company has grown. I remember when y'all were in your garage! And speaking of Saunders, I remember when he was in his bedroom! Congrats to you both!

Congrats guys!! I've been here since the garage days. Best of luck to you in the future.

I've been following you since the beginning. Congratulations on how far you have come!

One of my biggest regrets of my knife collecting career is selling my Norseman, good thing I have me another one on the way LOL. Congrats guys on job well done!

Congratulations to everybody who've contributed to the success of this awesome company and its products. Great machine-tools, superb shop & environment!

Congratulations to you all. 10 years. A huge Milestone 👏

Only just got to watch this video now. I've been here since the earrrrrrly struggles with the home-built CNC in your garage and just wanted to say congratulations to you and Erik. You've come a long way and it's great to see you both happy and healthy. Here's to another 10 years! 🍻

Congradulations to John and Eric on the 10 year anniversary of Grimsmo Knives. I think back to the beginning when you were doing everything in John's garage using the Tormach 1100! Very impressive growth in 10 years and BTW you still make some of the finest knives that money can buy.

Congratulations !!! I love your Work, your Shop, you Guys .... I love Grimsmo 😂😂😂 Have Fun

It's crazy that I've been watching u guys for so long nice to see you grow and prosper over the years.

Congratulations on your success. You’ll find that the harder you work, the luckier you will get!

Happy anniversary!!!!

John and Eric, congratulations to you both and the team you are to be commended for your efforts since we first started watching you in your garage. Lance & Patrick.

Love this. Look forward to seeing whats coming next. 😁

Awesome achievements guys, well done and keep it moving👍🏻

Wow, really nice Shop and a very nice collection of CNC machine tools. Thanks for sharing it with all of us. I have never purchased one of your knives but maybe I will in the future just because they are obviously extremely well made. Very Impressive John

Congratulations! Just ordered my first Norseman, supposed to be here Monday! 🙃

Congratulations guys on your 10 year anniversary. I hope that I will get to own a Norseman before your 20 year anniversary!

Hey ! Don´t matter what happens remember, keep the old table !! Congratulations , it´s very inspiring for all of us , tons of health , prosperity and good business.

glad to see you guys doing great, got into machining as a hobby 6 years back and you influenced me a lot

Nice shop. Blaser lube is great. Glad to see some Kennedys, now you just need some Lista's and you'll be in there and your Swiss lathe....12 foot bar feeder! So nice to see someone your age making it and really enjoying it!

Happy birthday guys!

Cannot believe it's been ten years ! Hope the next ten years are just as good as the last 🙏🏽 Stay blessed 💯

Congratulations from the UK 👍

I’m on the Norseman Waiting list after seeing the amazing setup! I’m from MTL so it’s very cool to see such a quality product being produced in Canada. Thanks for the video!

last time I checked in on your channel you were in your garage. Completely missed your last shop. Good to see you are still going. Quality products the Chines cant steel seem to stand the test of time.

Congrats men ! Have been watching you and Saunders from the first chip and just proud of you three . lots of luck to you " all and Eric regards Skip Victoria Texas USA

I remember you talking about hiring your first employee on the podcast, crazy how far you've come since then!

legend. i have see your beginning with tormach 5years ago now your company is growing so big!

This was really cool. I have a Norseman being shipped out tomorrow (I hope!). Can't wait to get it. Love the behind the scenes look, even the admin and shipping areas.

Watching your story has been inspirational to all of us 😎👍 love the videos 🙃

Congrats.

24:00 John and Eric: We've got to plan for hiring some new people. Me: LOOK AT THAT GIGANTIC HORSE FLY THAT'S ABOUT TO TAKE A BITE OUT OF YOUR PASTY CANADIAN LEGS!! 😱😆😎

9 years snd still as awkward on camera lol. Also love the plants “planted” for the video. Congrats on 10 years and can’t wait to get my hands on a saga. Keep it up fellas.

Congratulations.

OMG, it's not been ten years has it?...i remember you back in the Garage telling us "My wife has let me use Tuesdays Guilt free as a workday"....lol.Mrs Grimsmo needs a pat on the back for allowing you to make noise on a Tuesday...look what happened!!! It's been a ride bro...here's to another 10 years!!!

Nice work gentleman. I just got my first Norseman finally but need need need a chance to get one of those timascus knives. Love my new knife and keep up the good work.

Just freakn awesome !

A long way from customizing handles in the garage. Good on you guys! Happy 10th.✌

RIP kern shed break room thing. You will be missed.

Congrats team! ⭐😃👍

30 seconds in and ohh damm I'm loving the style of this

Beautiful relationship...but the dog 🐶 makes it. Love this. Congratulations.

John - "this table is garbage"... 12 year old table- "Am I a joke to you?".

Great work guys! Can't wait to see what you do in the next ten years! BTW, where's the Wilimen?

A far cry from Ridge Road. Happy you didn't let that 242 go to waste.

yeah happy birthday!

You deserve to feel pride in what you've accomplished.

Thanks John, deeply inspired by your work and your story. Took me a while to understand, but know i know what to do, same thing you are doing with your products, but with my telescopes. I wont imitate you but have you as my refference, alongside with Pierson and Saunders..... thanks from Australia.

Love the aloe plants in the shop.

After years of perfecting a skill, you know exactly how you’d do it. you can skip over all the years of trial and error and train someone new (and committed) the skill in far less time, they might even surpass your original skill. To the point that your jealous of how fast they picked it up. That’s why the most committed players become coaches, they can train someone to be better than them in half the time. Smart business move. You can go the next skill, then teach that. Love your content man. Good job on the camera work too. KZfaq channel is even full Grimsmo nowadays.

I've realised and heard that I'm basically on the same journey as you - with different products - about 5-6 years behind you! It's really quite weird :-D Today we should be getting the keys to our first unit - moving from a garage (plus little container)

Congrats. You guys story is inspirstional 👌

awesome vid! Please drop more sagas lol

10 year!? I feel like I was watching you make spyderco scales yesterday!

I would love to go through your box of fail. I actually bought a set of Spyderco Manix scales from you at Blade Show long ago. I was looking for an inexpensive way to leave with a custom folder and that set of scales was a slight machining mistake that you gave me a deal on and then you installed it on a Manix I bought at the show. I loved it and it was my EDC until I broke the plastic ball bearing lock holder when I tried to clean it. I guess you weren't Full Grimsmo yet. You did have a prototype Norseman but selling me a blem let me get in to the game and I have enjoyed watching your success even though I started with one of your "failures" (it seems fine to me). Congratulations, I'm sure you are going to be doing a lot more cool stuff over the next ten years, all Full Grimsmo and that box of fail will probably get smaller. I know you want to only put out the absolute highest quality you can but I'm proof that one of your fails can make a person very happy. You already know that seeing that box makes some people sad. If you want to fix that, I suggest you make a fail knife lottery and when you can put one together with mismatched scales or whatever, mark it fail, pull a name and sell it for $200. I would buy one and be happy if I had the chance. I would like it as much for the knife as the story too. Success without failure to go with it is a boring story!

Watching this as I have Norseman #5049 with the new lock bar insert on the way. 🙌🏻

I remember going to your garage/shop open house

10:21 I'm gonna need an quality inspection on that burrito that Skye's gnoshin on there. Something tells me there's barely any sauce and only a few crumbs of cheese on that bad boy... Sad the crate is gone! But shop looks awesome and I'm glad everyone is kill it!

You should take a look at the 5 axis cnc machines from Fehlmann in Swizerland, like the Fehlmann Versa 945, great video by the way : )

Erik, give us an update on the 242!

i am from the uk was in engineering for 50 years 4 company's 30 years on CNC your so clean and tidy i worked in some right shit holes

Nice shop it is so good and shiny, but your only weakness is the sharpening part , if the guy was sick for any reason your production will stop , i know its wery hard but you can program a robotic arm to sharpen the blades

maybe a lil late maybe not, but for sharpening blades repeatably at the same quality. you can look into one of those stands wich use a arm to guide a sharpening stone at a specific angle on the fixed blade

Congrats on Ten years!! I would have thought that your brother was your partner but when you said “that’s what I got this guy for” it made me feel as if that is not the case. He has been with you on this glorious ride since almost day one and he did come from across the country to take that first step beside you. Maybe it was just a slip up of words!! maybe not!! I would hope it was just a slip up!! And I don’t think we saw Frazier in this vid!! I assume he was shooting this video!!

Congrats! Remember anodizing in garage! You've come a little no way and no limits ahead.

Been here since knife Tuesdays. I think that's what they were called. But love your stuff still waiting for my name to be drawn.

Thumbs up for Carlos just looking for some wood.

Very good

I liked your garage shop..

11:40 Oh yeah! Purple's the best :D Norseman 3027 reporting :P

Angelo rocking the Kern shirt eh? Haha sweet.

How are the flashlights coming along ;)

still waiting on a chance to buy a saga pen

Nice...

I know it’s not Full Grimsmo, but you should consider selling the blems like Noveske does with their “Chainsaw” lowers. The parts are still 100% functional, but they have minor cosmetic defects. It would be a great way to reduce waste and bring in extra money. Plus, it gives people the opportunity to make a purchase and own a product that otherwise may be out of financial possibility by buying it at a lower cost. Noveske simply laser etches a chainsaw logo to identify it.

_John, how do you stay so physically fit while running a business?_ 💪🏻

I sincerely love my #4666

Not at blade show?

Please, for the love of comfortable seating, invest in some ergonomic chairs for downstairs too (Herman Miller, Steelcase, etc), it'll be expensive at first, but comfortable and ergonomic chairs will improve employee welfare. My back hurts just looking at some of the chairs you're using

So how do we actually order a knife? I cant seem to come right on your website and dont really want a "second hand" one. Plus how do you get a matching saga?

You ever considered a small, batch vacuum furnace for heat treatment?

Snake Bros hat. Awesome podcast

I wanna tour!! 🤘😎🤘🔪
