The illegitimate father of a lot of knifemakers who learned on YouTube is back. Aaron Gough’s Videos have been so helpful and the design of the Resolute MkIII is the result of years of hard work. Aaron’s use of CNC had made his work precise and when you have one in your hand you wonder: Is this art?

We discussed that, among other things as well as some new life news. 

P.S. I’m very sorry about the Audio issues and sorry to Pat Quinn about the last episode. I’ll make it up to everyone- Thanks GF

Growing up on the water with her family she spent time fishing with her family playing soccer, the violin and making art. She’s just back from The New England School of Metalwork on a Maritime Knife Supply scholarship where she learned from Master Bladesmith Lin Rhea.

We also followed up last weeks episode with Riley Kirkpatrick and Ben told his experience competing in the World Championship Blacksmiths.

Always good and Ben rules as you already know. All the best, GF

Riley Kirkpatrick returns for another fun episode where we covered a lot of ground. Riley is an incredibly skilled Blacksmith, Farrier and cohost of  “Forging Brains Podcast”, a show that gives the listener a look into the farrier community and the incredible sport of Competition Blacksmithing. We talked for a good long time about the World Championship Blacksmiths- very exciting horseshoe forging competitions where a  blacksmith team forges projects in very tight deadline; like a horseshoe in 8 minutes?! ! These events take forging from the gameshow format into actual sport. I’m excited to see the future of this. Riley rules and is an excellent example of the modern day blacksmith. He’ll be back. - All the best, Geoff

Another solo ep where I tell stories about how I use humor as a defense mechanism. Spending years working in metal shops where I wasn’t allowed to listen to music out of fear of injury made me resort to remembering strange points in my life and investigating how they informed my decisions later. The stories I told I’m not proud of but I will never ever apologize for. Haha I really swung for the fences this time. Ugh.

What’s up! The Storm that passed through New York threw everything out of wack so I did a little solo ep. I ain’t trying to tell you what to do like all these other fleabag podcasts. I’m recounting stories that happened to me and how they influenced the directions I took. This was a dive into why I get mad about things and what I think caused it.
