from How Your World Works · host Popular Mechanics / Panoply
On today’s episode, Chelsea Miller and Michael Zieba – both master knife makers, albeit with very different origin stories – come to the studio to explain what it takes to make a knife.

That’s why they adamantly agree on one thing—you can’t take up knife making if you don’t love it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
