My friend Jared Thatcher is the Bladesmith of Boothill Knives, he and his wife Kylee run Three Daughters Farm, Boothill Kitchen and train and raise world class hunting Dogs at TDF Kennels. As if that wasn’t enough, they hold Knife making classes every other weekend and Jared is the Mayor of his town in Kentucky. I Love taking with Jared and he’s one of my favorite business minds in knife making. We had a great time talking about what he’s been up to and making some connections between knife making and dog training. We talked about baseball for a bit until the connection dropped.(Subsequently it was exactly when the news broke that the Knicks fired their head coach. Seriously)
Jared is a great friend and you should definitely check out what hes up to. Follow him here:
