Master Bladesmith Jordan LaMothe is back! Fresh off Blade show we had a great catch up on what’s going on in the knife world. We talked about the past and speculated about the Future. We even bridged the gap between art & craft, focusing on his latest piece: “Sojourn”, which represents the duality of his time spent as a student in India as it relates to his home on a farm in Upstate New York. We talked about where confidence comes from and everything else. Jordan is an incredibly talented person; so well spoken and helpful. Always great having him on. I highly suggest listening to the older episodes too. Thanks again- GF
