What started as a hobby during recovery from eye surgery has evolved into one of the most respected boutique knife operations in the industry, known for precision CNC manufacturing and monthly drops that sell out in minutes.

A major focus of the discussion centers on Wunderman\'s latest venture: the world\'s first comprehensive CNC knife making course, launching July 9. This groundbreaking educational program promises to democratize advanced manufacturing techniques, offering step-by-step guidance from design through production.
