Does anyone know a good resource for finding noteworthy new knife makers? I'm well aware of and have much respect for the many established contemporary knife makers, such as Bloodroot, Tsourkan, Devin, Carter, etc.
Where would I find some of the up-and-coming knife making talents? I like the idea of supporting, maybe buying something of quality, made by a US based artisan that is still cutting-their-teeth, or just getting their name out.
I remember an article I'd read some time ago about a woman [can't remember her name] that had apprenticed at Brooklyn Cut, and now makes chef knives under her own label.
Do the established makers have apprentices who have gone out on their own?
Is there a good website where new makers list their info? I was thinking about how Food & Wine always publishes their 'Best New Chefs' issue.
