This is a recent episode of Andy Stumpf's Cleared Hot podcast featuring Josh Smith, CEO of Montana Knife Company. Josh was the youngest ever Master Bladesmith.

Andy Stumpf was a Navy SEAL, so it shouldn't be shocking that he swears like a sailor at times. You've been warned.



Gotta say, after hearing the part about Benchmade being complete jerks, I'm not going to ditch the one I have, but I'm not planning on acquiring any more of their knives (certainly not new ones, anyway). I know there are two side to every story, but I can't stand bullies.

Same here. Heard about the BS they pulled a few years ago, that and their out of touch prices killed any possibility of getting another Benchmade product. Shame really, I like a lot of the designs that they have.

I have some great Benchmades, but I don’t even look at their stuff anymore. The market is saturated with quality knives and life is too short to deal with jerks!
