Michael “Pappy” O’Machearley of O’Machearley Custom Knives -- The Knife Junkie Podcast (Episode 64)
Published: 4 years ago
https://theknifejunkie.com/64
Michael “Pappy” O’Machearley of O'Machearley Custom Knives is featured on episode of The Knife Junkie Podcast. O’Machearley began his full-time knife making career after DHL closed operations in his Ohio town, causing the loss of thousands of jobs including his. But, he had a sideline business of knife making that he turned into his full-time business.
Immediately following a "60 Minutes" television feature -- in which O’Machearley was featured -- about the DHL closure and its impacts on the town, his phone started ringing for orders of his custom knives.
It's an interesting interview into the mind of a custom knife maker and his transition from having a job with knife making side hustle into a full-time handmade custom knife (and leather) maker.
