Thanks for listening to Episode 15 of the Artisans of Steel interview series with Paul DiStefano, JS!
I first met Paul at Blade Show 2018, and the quality of his work, for such a young maker, drew me to his table. I could see that he had a lot of potential and was already on a great path, and only a few short years later, he is an ABS Journeyman Smith working on becoming a Master Smith. He incorporates elaborate carving and engraving work that captures your attention with his signature, stylistic flow. I hope you enjoy our conversation, talking about his journey thus far, and where his future might take him.
