James Rodebaugh, ABS Master Bladesmith and ABS Instructor, joins Bob "The Knife Junkie" DeMarco on Episode 534 of The Knife Junkie Podcast (https://theknifejunkie.com/534).
Rodebaugh is a former US Marine and Federal Law Enforcement Officer before changing careers to full-time knifemaker. He claims that even with his USMC and LEO experience, testing for his Master Bladesmith was the scariest thing he'd ever done.
He joined the American Blade Society in 1996 and trained with knife maker Al Barton, who passed along his considerable knowledge to James before his death.
Rodebaugh believes that it is high levels of fit-and-finish that push knives from functional tools to functional art.
