Our goal as <em>KnifeMaker Training<\/em> is to fill that void with a unique, friendly, detailed series of training videos that allow all ages to move forward in a hobby\/industry that deserves to live on in strength.<\/p>\n<p>The team of Ed and Tim has been a perfect pairing, with Ed&#8217;s lifetime of experience and being recognized as an ABS Mastersmith, and Tim&#8217;s 10 years of experience in video production. Not to mention that Ed and Tim are related through marriage (Tim married Ed&#8217;s daughter in 2013) and enjoy hanging out together in Ed&#8217;s shop chewing the fat. The idea behind <em>KnifeMaker Training<\/em> was a topic between Ed and Tim early on in 2014, but distance became a quick issue considering Tim and Mandi (Ed&#8217;s daughter) lived in Orlando, Florida, and Ed and his wife Cindy were located in Great Falls, Montana. In March of 2017, that was remedied as Tim and Mandi relocated to Montana to be closer to her family.<\/p>\n<p><em>KnifeMaker Training<\/em> is owned and operated by Legacy Studio Productions, Tim&#8217;s videography and graphic design firm, and is filmed with Ed as its star\/premiere trainer, filmed on location at the Montana Bladesmith Shop.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in having Ed for instruction or demonstrations, please send an email to Ed at <em><span \n                data-original-string='yb21IXtCUzVBsIO90Ty0UA==96dOxaXJNCw8bv0vHRyC5biwPDf1YCLo4iKeS8U9uK3I48='\n                class='apbct-email-encoder'\n                title='This contact has been encoded by Anti-Spam by CleanTalk.
