I had already been aware of Justin's work by the time I'd actually met him in person at the "Forge to Table" chef's knife event in Sacramento, CA, back in 2022. Justin was already doing great work and absolutely killed at that show. A couple of short years later, I had the pleasure of working with him, and a small group of makers, to deepen their understanding of forged integrals, S-grinds, and faceted western handle sculpting. Again, Justin showed high aptitude for these new concepts and over the past year has really made them his own. I am really looking forward to getting to know Justin better and to share the story of his journey with all of you here on Patreon. Send in your questions below, and be sure to tune in tomorrow - it's going to be a great chat!You can see more of Justin's work on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/running_man_forgeOr on his website here:https://runningmanforge.com/ Thanks so much to this month’s Super Sponsors: 🌟 Josh A.
