Episode Details

This week we’re joined by Coy Baker for a conversation about Damascus production, Baker Forge’s new stainless Damascus workflow, their "new" massive 750 lb Chambersburg power hammer, custom forge setup, argon purging, pattern testing with clay, and the systems behind running a serious steel production shop.

We also get into branding, maker logos, ISO 9000 prep, inventory tracking, the Baker Forge app, AI tools, and plans for a custom knife maker database to help people find the right maker for their next custom knife.
