Having some trouble? Heat treated and forgot to drill your tang holes? Cooked your resin inside the chamber? Ruined an etch on a finished blade? Well the Knife Talk Podcast can’t help with any of that, but it does help pass the time. There’s a French guy called Ćregg (he’s some sort of Duke I think?), his main job is importing equipment from China, but he also makes the packaging for their knives. He recycles them from old boxes that iPhones come in (#sustainable) which is pretty cool. Then there’s this hilaaarious old dude, who cusses off dog walkers, he does the handles. He started out making fishing equipment, but his lures were too big though and it didn’t work out. Then my favourite, Maumasi the science guy, he mostly talks about his buddy’s, although I can’t find any of them - spent ages looking for Austin Knight. Maumasi makes all of the blades, they are coffee flavoured too which is cool. There’s also loads of ads for discounts on stuff as well. I don’t need an intimate shaver right now (I use my super sharp CHOP knife for that, although catching the baby bird on the bottle opener can be painful) but if I did need a shaver I’d be sorted! I mean if you’re interested in beef, music and lasers then I’m with you. They did talk about making knives once, but that one was boring. They also love all of their listeners....just not the stupid ones. I love this podcast, it’s brilliant! I feel like I know the guys personally, especially Geoff!
