Episode Description
This week on the High Carbon Podcast, we welcome Roman of Kasé Knives from Switzerland for a detailed and insightful episode on performance driven knife making. Roman shares his approach to high hardness blades, exotic steels, and the heat treatment methods that define his work.
We discuss edge retention, toughness, grinding practices, sharpening, rare steel sourcing, and the balance between handmade craftsmanship and CNC machining. The episode also touches on Magnacut, burr removal, and the standards that matter most when building knives for real performance.
Follow Roman and his work here on his website, and also on YouTube.
You can find out more about Dr. Marv’s Scientific Sharpening Stones here on his website.
