Mark of the Maker

Artist and metalsmith Pat Pruitt joins us for a great chat about his work and how he found his path. Another example of a unique background and a journey that is unlike any of the others we’ve explored. We talk art, technology, and design – and dig into what it means to be a maker and creator of things.

We always enjoy the “picks” episodes and this one was no exception. As usual, we set up some scenarios and use them as an excuse to go find some cool blades and gear to talk about. We go new school, old school, funky school – you name it. Fun episode and one we hope you’ll share your OWN picks for in our Facebook group.

Jade Marsh of RMJ USA joins us for a chat about his background and some of the kickass things going on in the RMJ world. Jade grew up in southern California during an important time in knifemaking and shares some great stories with us. We talk history, shows, business, and a bit about how recent times have changed the landscape of the knife industry.

Here’s the first of what will likely become a series over time – something we’re calling a History “Combosode.” Some important pieces of knife history, showcasing makers that we might not have a full episode worth of content to talk about – but who we still want to highlight. We hit four makers, some passed, some living legends and tell you what we know about their significance in our world.
