Thanks for listening to Episode 22 of the Artisans of Steel interview series with Lin Rhea, MS.

Thanks for listening to Episode 21 of the Artisans of Steel interview series with Steve Culver, MS.

I first met Steve when I took the Introduction to Bladesmithing Course over at the New England School of Metalwork. I took that class so that I could meet Steve, because I really admired his talent and skill, and I loved that he approached knifemaking from a very different perspective and approach than I did. Since then, I've become good friends with him, and we have had many great conversations about knifemaking, and damascus making. I look forward to sharing our conversation with everybody, today.

Thanks for listening to Episode 20 of the Artisans of Steel interview series with Don Andrade.

Thanks for listening to Episode 19 of the Artisans of Steel interview series with Shane Taylor, MS.

I first met Shane Taylor in 2014 at the Seattle International Knife Show. The quality of his work instantly blew me away. His creativity seems to be boundless and he's often an inspiration for my work. I am very excited to have this amazing Master Smith on the podcast and get to dive more into his work and his process!

Thanks for listening to Episode 13 of the Artisans of Steel interview series with Fingal Ferguson.

I'm excited to welcome one of my favorite culinary knife makers, Fingal Ferguson, to the Artisans of Steel podcast. Fingal makes knives for a wide variety of people in the kitchen; from great talents like Chef Jamie Oliver and Chef Francis Mallmann, to everyday home cooking culinary heroes. Fingal is also an integral part of his family farm, Gubbeen, where he specializes in making the farm's smoked meats and charcuterie, as well as its cheeses. He’s a man of vast experience with a ton of wisdom to impart, and we’re lucky to have him as our guest this month!
