About this episode

The episode features an interview with Jim Wirth, co-founder of Giant Mouse Knives, discussing his journey from collector to knifemaker.

Here's another in our growing series of live on-site interviews. This one's with Jim Wirth, one of the founders of Giant Mouse Knives. Jim came into the knife world as a collector of many things before he, Jesper Voxnaes and Jens Anso launched Giant Mouse. His story is a good one as Jim has been smitten by the collecting bug across a pretty huge variety of things. Hope you enjoy this chat, this is Part 1 of our conversation with Jim.
