Episode 57

Episode 56: Hawkward ft. Grant &amp; Gavin Hawk of Hawk Designs In tonight's episode, we are joined by Grant &amp; Gavin Hawk of Hawk Designs, the legendary father-son duo who has for two decades been at the forefront of innovation in folding knives. It has been eight(!) years since BladeHQ made their excellent documentary/shop tour about the pair (which you can view here), and a lot has changed. If you were shocked at how rustic their shop was in 2012, in 2021 it is beginning to resemble the science fiction image you might have had in your head. We review their backstory with Grant, including some truly fantastic anecdotes about Reevus Christ himself, and then talk about the future of Hawk Design, which means full in-house production of the runaway success that is the Deadlock.

Episode 36

Episode 28: MODIFY MY BOKER!!! ft Geoff Blauvelt of TuffKnivesTonight we are joined by custom knife maker Geoff Blauvelt of TuffKnives. Geoff's story is one that is both totally unique, and highly modern; he was key member of the early YouTube knife community, whose passion for knives lead to career modifying them, and later making his own custom knives. What is completely unique is that he documented all of it on YouTube at a time where no one else had done this before. His YouTube channel (Tuffthumbz) is still available if you want to watch the reality-show like progression of Geoff and other custom knife makers around him like Sebastjian Berenji (Borka Blades) and Michal Gavac (Gavko Knives).We get the full story from Geoff, as well as some of the interesting up's and down's he has experienced in his career as a knife maker. A common theme throughout the episode is reminiscing about how different knife industry was even just 5 years ago.In addition, we are proud to announce our new sponsor, Kizer Cutlery, who joins our established sponsor PVK Vegas. We are excited to be able to check out Kizer's new knives and will continue to provide our unfiltered, irreverent takes on their knives. As usual, use coupon code "knifenuts" at PVK for 5% off your order!References:Please Touch Museum (Philadelphia, PA) mural painted by GeoffSpyderco T-MagBoker Plus x TuffKnives War ToadTuffKnives ImpArcform KnivesKershaw Cyclone ZDP-189Bobby ShmurdaJim Skelton visits Tuff Knives and grinds his first bladeCalifornia legal Microtech UTX 70
