Fabian Scherl!

Our guest this episode is Fabian Scherl, the Austrian bladesmith and founder of Scherlfirearts. Fabian shares his journey from working as a chef in St. Anton am Arlberg to building a reputation as a knife maker and wood stabilizer. We talk about his seasonal life balancing kitchen work with bladesmithing, how COVID pushed him deeper into knife making, his passion for thin ground gyutos, and why he’s fallen in love with stabilizing wood for makers across Europe and beyond. You can find Fabian's Stabilized wood here on etzy.
