Episode Details

Ben Kamon is one of the best Bladesmiths in the knife game and he’s back! Fresh off a huge project at Kamon Knives, we talked about what it takes to build 60 identical knives. We discussed how his days as a production blacksmith helped in building all the jigs and tools to help make all the steps consistent. We lamented about the woes of content creation as advertisement and hit some weird news too. Ben rules and is always fun to have on. Thanks again Ben! Talk soon -GF
