403: Josh Smith--From First Blood to Last Bite

The Way I Heard It with Mike Rowe - A podcast by The Way I Heard It with Mike Rowe - Tuesdays

When it comes to work ethic, Master Bladesmith Josh Smith self-identifies as “the guy Mike is always talking about.” At age 11, Josh was taught how to build knives by his little-league baseball coach. By age 19, he was the youngest bladesmith to ever pass the Master Smith test of the American Bladesmith Society. Today, he owns and operates the Montana Knife Company. Josh talks about giving up the security of a six-figure journeyman lineman job to start his own knife company, how he changed the way contestants are treated on Forged in Fire, and what it was like to build a sword for a sheik in Abu Dhabi.  Big thanks to our terrific sponsors ZipRecruiter.com/Rowe to try ZipRecruiter for FREE.
