Hardent Knives

This week Timo of Hardent Knives talks with us about his forged flower pattern Damascus, the engineering behind his frame handle knives, his new two hundred ton press project, and his signature Starry Night finish, a tungsten alloy patina effect he's still refining. Plus talk on Turkish twist versus organic Damascus patterns, and a preview of what he's bringing to Knife Show Austria. Help support us on Patreon!
