Introducing Josh... He's going to be taking over the blog for a bit

Josh started working for us a few months ago, and as he's going through a lot of training right now, we thought it might be fun to have him share a bit about the things he's learning about, struggles, areas of interest, etc., as a lot of this is new to him like it is to many of our customers.  Before working with us, Josh worked as a butcher for a couple of high end butchery shops nearby.  He also has experience with various aspects of fabricating, welding, woodworking, etc.  Currently, he helps out with shipping out online orders, helping people in the store, answering the phones and e-mails, following up with customers, etc.  We are also working on getting him up to speed with knife sharpening and repairs, though that admittedly takes a bit longer.

 

Anyways, we've given him free reign with the blog here... Looking forward to hearing what he has to say.  Here's Josh...

@L Josh is not currently making knives, but he is interested. His interest stemmed from his use of butchery knives at work as i understand it. Many of his coworkers were using Japanese knives, and so he got into them too.
