Description:  Joe Maynard is a retired Army Helicopter who has served his country proudly for 20 years. After finding the love of knife making at a tough time in his life Joe helps others and gives back by traveling around in his mobile forge to show people how knife making can be a rewarding pursuit. We talked about his time flying and made the connections between his former life in the army and how it translates into his voyages around the country today. We also covered his time as a contestant on the survival TV show Naked and Afraid and how he dealt with the insane conditions there. Joe is an incredibly generous guy and his serving a higher purpose helping veterans and others people in need. I appreciate his time and look forward to hearing more about his exploits. Thanks again, GF
