October 29Fingal Ferguson
Paulie’s out sick, so Fingal Ferguson joins Keith and Albert to talk Knife Show Austria prep, balancing a working farm with forging, and his Edge of Hope blade inspired by Tobias Hangler’s work. The conversation dives into high carbon versus stainless Damascus, integral bolsters, and a deep dive into power hammers and hydraulic presses, including Albert and Andy’s restoration of a rare 1890s Austrian spring hammer.

October 22Fredrik Spåre
This week on The High Carbon Podcast we talk with Swedish knifemaker Fredrik Spare, who made a serrated Damasteel bread sword for The Edge of Hope charity project. Fredrik walks us through grinding bread knife serrations one tooth at a time, by eye, and how his background as a chef shaped the one day classes he teaches. He explains why customers so often order knives that are too long and how he steers them toward the one they will actually reach for. We also dig into forging, heat treating and etching Damasteel, and why he thinks you shouldn’t be afraid of it, before moving on to kiln disasters, patina, and why you can’t gift a knife in Sweden. Fredrik also tells us how moving his shop from Big Cartel to a new website has simplified his orders, classes and bookings.
Find Fredrik at SpareKnives.se, and on Instagram as Fredrikspare. Follow the charity project at theedgeofhope.eu.

October 08Hangler's Modular Takedown System
Tobias Hangler joins us to talk about his new modular takedown system. Every handle fits every blade, so you can order a new handle years later without the blade ever coming back to the shop.
We cover the balance pin pocket that lets you change handle weight at home, why a little grease makes the joint watertight, how he machines repeatable handles on a CNC, and the online configurator for building your own knife. He also shares what's coming next, including full metal handles.
