  • Enjoyable and “real”

    I’m just getting into knives, so admittedly I’m not that knowledgeable yet the show works for me. It has a simple, unpretentious tone. Informative and enjoyable.

  • Welcoming and informative

    These guys are genuine, unpretentious and super knowledgeable. They’re passionate about their craft and love to share it. For a guy like me who has no knife making knowledge whatsoever, they’re eager to answer questions, provide tips and really go out of their way to make a novice feel comfortable!

  • Ok

    Ok podcast, Kyle is great and always has good info. Dan on the other hand makes the podcast hard to listen too, it’s like listening to a middle school boy trying to be funny with crude jokes. To bad Dan brings the work of Kyle down.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

139 – Matt Mitman
Q: How does Matt manage risk when ordering large equipment internationally?
He relies on Alibaba's escrow system, uses quotes with detailed specs, and leverages buyer protection and credit card chargebacks to mitigate risk if a vendor underdelivers or delays.
139 – Matt Mitman
Q: What motivated Matt to move into importing heavy machinery from China?
Cost efficiency and the realization that Chinese machines could deliver comparable capability at a fraction of the price, enabling a more ambitious shop build without breaking the budget.
119 – Brett Onnink
Q: How did you get into knives?
Brett describes a transition from railroad spike knives and tomahawks made for ultramarathon finisher awards to formal knife making, including taking classes and learning mosaic techniques, which gradually evolved into professional kitchen knives.
119 – Brett Onnink
Q: Where did you grow up?
Brett grew up on an 80-acre property near Lake Michigan in rural Wisconsin, which shaped his hands-on, resourceful approach to knife making.
120 – Pops ProCut and MagnaMax
Q: What about corrosion resistance in MagnaMax compared to MagnaCut?
MagnaMax aims to achieve corrosion resistance similar to MagnaCut, but early batches showed some chromium carbide-related issues due to carbon content variations; final material will depend on mill specifications and proper carbon-chromium balance.
