Gotta revisit my buddy Elan Wenzel again. Elan appeared on my first episode "How We Started" over a year ago. Since then he's taken his company Element Knife Company big time! A well known culinarian, business owner, and the nicest guy around. Let's show him some love - otherwise, he'll cut you.

After medaling in American Culinary Federation cooking competitions Chef Wenzel graduated from Colorado Mountain Culinary Institute as Apprentice of the Year. Subsequently, Chef Wenzel studied in Japan, where he was exposed to a broad array of cutlery, tools, sharpening stones, and techniques. Now, after more than two decades in the industry, he has developed a much deeper appreciation for Japanese cutlery.

Elan has recently left his position as a sushi chef in Colorado, to focus on his growing knife business, Element Knife Company. One of the nicest entrepreneurs in Denver - Please welcome, Elan Wenzel to the show!
