#005 Alaska Blade Studio - Zeke Johnston

Alaskan bladesmith Zeke Johnston joins me to talk about the craft of hand-forging knives and what makes a blade more than just a tool. We explore the heirloom value of a well-made knife, the stories it can carry, and how the forging process mirrors the shaping of a meaningful life. Zeke shares about growing up on a family farm in Alaska, commercial fishing, and the journey to full-time bladesmithing. We also dive into parenting, values, and share stories along the way. Follow Zeke on YouTube @AlaskaBladeStudio and visit alaskabladestudio.com to see his work.Shoot me a text, what do you think?
