Thanks for listening to Episode 9 of the Artisans of Steel interview series with Salem Straub.
Salem is part of a new generation of knifemakers that are really pushing the bounds of pattern development, which is why I featured him in this year's Artisans of Steel Calendar. He's one of the most innovative and creative damascus makers I know. He also has a wide breadth of knowledge and understanding about the construction and creation of all kinds of knives, from Bowies to folders to swords to chef's knives. He is also a talented musician and skater, and I'm excited to have him on the show!
