PK Podcast 63: Joe Flowers on Knife Design, Natural History & Amazon Expeditions

from The Paul Kirtley Podcast

In this podcast, I speak with Joe Flowers, a knife designer, outdoor guide, zoologist and entomologist whose work combines natural history, wilderness travel and traditional outdoor skills. Joe shares how a childhood fascination with knives, wildlife and the outdoors developed into a career designing blades for major manufacturers and leading expeditions in the Amazon. We discuss bushcraft knife design, the influence of figures such as Mors Kochanski, Ray Mears and Horace Kephart, lessons from jungle travel, and the importance of curiosity, experimentation and continual learning in developing wilderness skills.
