Ed Sol, Ed Sol Crafts - The Knife Junkie Podcast (Episode 457) Media

Published: 1 year ago

Ed Sol of Ed Sol Crafts joins Bob "The Knife Junkie" DeMarco on Episode 457 of The Knife Junkie Podcast (https://theknifejunkie.com/457). 

Ed was born and raised in Mexico and now lives as a bladesmith and blacksmith in Indiana. The stark contrast between urban and natural environments inspires him creatively.

As he grew up, Ed loved to work with his hands, drawing and building things, which eventually led to cooking. His love of knives grew as he learned more about cooking and kitchen cutlery. Knives designed for particular tasks and materials that excelled at those jobs became his main concern in knife-making.

Ed won first place in the edged category for the 2021 Indiana Blacksmithing Association and is currently working towards his ABS Journeyman accreditation. He was also a finalist on "Forged in Fire," Season 9, Episode 8.

Most recently, Ed has collaborated with TM Hunt Custom Knives to create the Brain Shovel, a push dagger built on a knuck platform.
