Hey y’all

[Josh Hiett]

I’m Josh, I love cooking, I got into it about 20 years ago as a ten year old after seeing the OG iron chefs. I’m also a chef knife maker mostly forged 52100.

Welcome aboard, would be great to see some photos of your knives!

An example of a gyuto I made about a year ago. 52100 @RC62 with African Blackwood and mammoth tooth

To elaborate more, I’m also a chef knife collector, with a carter, a HSC3, a Hazenberg, a Jody Hale and a few of my own that didn’t make it. I’m fascinated with Japanese cutlery. Although I don’t actually own any. I’m also on the fence about Japanese and w series steels...

Nice work on the knife!
