Pat Quinn is the Executive Director of Center for Metal Arts in Johnstown PA, the premier institution for Forging education. I was very excited to talk about the amazing new large scale forged sculpture built during the Collaborative Sculpture Workshop, especially as its construction depended on the restoration of the 2000 lb. Chambersburg self contained hammer. After an amazing fundraiser and restoration of the hammer Pat realized something was terrifyingly wrong. The story of this restoration turned into an odyssey and adds another layer to the history of Center for Metal Arts. Many thanks to Pat for telling this story, and he’ll be back soon!  Follow Pat on IG: https://www.instagram.com/handforgedinvt?stkn=bWltZWs2azZ1aDlp Follow CMA on IG: https://www.instagram.com/centerformetalarts?igsh=MWRqdzlwZnV2d3BnYQ== Take a class at CMA: Center for Metal Arts | Forging workshops in Johnstown, PA Follow Full Blast on Instagram and join the party pal: https://www.instagram.com/thefullblastpodcast?igsh=Nm5jbmFqYXJ2eHJo If you want to support Full Blast  Support  Feder Knives - ( go buy a shirt ) https://www.federknives.com/ Go to CMA’s website and check out the opportunities:  https://centerformetalarts.org/ Please subscribe, leave a review and tell your friends about the show. it helps me out a lot!  Welcome aboard Phoenix Abrasives!

This was a very special episode remembering the 25th anniversary of 9/11 with 2 of my closest friends. Both Eric and Henrik had different experiences that day with incredible and harrowing stories. One thing they both came to the same conclusions to was the indomitable human spirit that New Yorkers and Americans had at that time - Selflessness, generosity , bravery, helpfulness, courageousness and compassion. Even as we recounted one of the worst days of our lives, we looked towards the good in humanity and hopefully one day we can get back there.  Many thanks to Eric and Henrik for your generosity, flexibility and friendship. I can’t thank you both enough.

My guy Karl Frentz is the Digital Marketing Specialist for Tormek USA and has become a great friend. Last November Karl came to the shop and filmed an awesome short documentary about Feder Knives and Tormek. It was such an amazing process and we talked about what it took to put it all together. Karl has incredible success with social media for Tormek and imparts a lot of nuanced points that are definitely helpful. Then we finished off talking NBA and what the latest shake up in the east could mean.

Nick Anderson of Nanda Knives is back after way too long. Nick is a blacksmith with a history as a glass Artist. 2 years ago we talked about his early days making glass objects to sell in school and how Nick wanted to incorporate glass into his knife handles. Recently he just started making glass handles and we talked this exciting direction plus his new collaborations with Flame work Artist Eusheen Goines. The glass community is very involved with collaborations and it looks like Nick has just opened him up to a lot of wonderful new opportunities. Great conversation as always. Nick will be back sooner rather than later. Many thanks.

I’m back from another amazing trip from Barcelona teaching a workshop with my brother Tomer Botner from Florentine Kitchen Knives. We had a fantastic time with the students as it’s a different style of class structure. Tomer called in to recap the workshop and all the aspects of making people who have never made knives before get the experience of what it takes to bring one home. Every part was exciting and we talk about the sharpening process that each student got a lot out of. We talked about his local collaborators like Chef Borja and his Tattooist Roger. We talked about what’s next for Florentine and even hit on the Knicks off season moves to hopefully get back to the NBA finals.

Josh Prince is on my MT. Rushmore of Bladesmiths and Artists. Marching to the beat of his own drum, his work evolves and it’s awesome to watch. The son of a RISD Art Professor Josh grew up in a home filled with Art making and self exploration and it’s great to see how those experiences informed his work today. we compared notes on a lot of things like the evolution of artistic decisions, traveling in Japan and their superior toilets.

This week was a recap of our trip to Tokyo to visit our daughter who’s studying abroad. It was an incredible time and a new perspective on the connection between the culture, government and city itself.  The food was better than expected, people were so polite and the infrastructure supporting everything was clean, efficient and top of the line. It was amazing seeing our daughter create a life there and maturing into a confident global citizen. We’ll be back.  Follow Full Blast on Instagram and join the party pal: https://www.instagram.com/thefullblastpodcast?igsh=Nm5jbmFqYXJ2eHJo Follow CMA on IG: https://www.instagram.com/centerformetalarts?igsh=MWRqdzlwZnV2d3BnYQ== Take a class at CMA: Center for Metal Arts | Forging workshops in Johnstown, PA If you want to support Full Blast  Support  Feder Knives - ( go buy a shirt ) https://www.federknives.com/ Go to CMA’s website and check out the opportunities:  https://centerformetalarts.org/ Take a class:  https://centerformetalarts.org/ Follow CMA on Instagram  https://www.instagram.com/centerformetalarts/?hl=en Please subscribe, leave a review and tell your friends about the show. it helps me out a lot!  Welcome aboard Phoenix Abrasives!
