  • Karl Frentz is way too nice

    My buddy Karl Frentz is an awesome human being. He works for Tormek in marketing and uses his film degree to help make great short docs and content for Tormek. We had an amazing time catching up and talking about our time in Sweden, good business practices, the role of social media and the future. We had some Father talk as Karl is a new Dad and even made NBA predictions. Let’s hope I’m wrong. Karl’s the man and if you’re going to Blade Show this year stop by the Tormek booth and say Hello! That’s the Tormek Way!! Many thanks! GF

  • Kay Foye Makes The Invisible Visible

    Kay Foye is an incredible Knifemaker whose direction focuses on the the voice and memories of the objects she uses to create her work. A lot of that direction comes from her experiences ranging from working in the New York fashion industry to being a ranch hand in Colorado. The evolution of her work like many artists is influenced by her surroundings as well as the people she talks to. Her process has led her to finding patrons who give her heirlooms and keepsakes for her to use in knife handles that appear to be a sculptural collage. Contrasting with the impermanence of carbon steel, or even a farriers rasp, these intricately built handles on give the feeling of preserved memories with the expectation of making new memories as the patina develops. Great time and we’ll definitely have Kay back. Many thanks! GF

  • What did I get myself into?!

    I am running the New York City marathon after running it 12 years ago on the Michael J. Fox Foundation team. This Foundation is raising money for Parkinson’s disease research. I’m so proud to be back with them and slightly terrified to be dragging my old ass over 26 + miles around the 5 Boroughs. This ep I tell a lot of stories of how Running was a severe punishment for me as a kid and how I changed my mind about it. I cross some funny roads and am not giving any words of encouragement or motivation don’t worry- zero jive. Thanks -GF

  • Remembering Steve Pellegrino

    Steve Pellegrino passed away on February 27 from injuries in car accident on his way home from his shop. He was an awesome Bladesmith and a good friend. I thought on this episode I would tell some stories about him and talk about his work. Incredible talent, kind, generous and happy. This unthinkable tragedy has rocked the maker and knifemaking community and frankly even writing this is unbelievable. I Send my deepest condolences to his family and friends.

    Rest in peace Steve.

  • Ben Kamon does it again!

    Ben Kamon is one of the best Bladesmiths in the knife game and he’s back! Fresh off a huge project at Kamon Knives, we talked about what it takes to build 60 identical knives. We discussed how his days as a production blacksmith helped in building all the jigs and tools to help make all the steps consistent. We lamented about the woes of content creation as advertisement and hit some weird news too. Ben rules and is always fun to have on. Thanks again Ben! Talk soon -GF
