Episode #66 | Forging Ahead with Lucas O'Hara

Lucas O'Hara was an Army sniper and executive bodyguard, who now runs his Grizzly Forge blacksmith shop out of the Black Rifle Coffee headquarters in Salt Lake City. After spending the morning designing and forging a new knife for Savage Gentleman, we sit down for a deep conversation about his process, his mentality, and his story of transition throughout his life. Continuing with the theme of overcoming adversity, I run into a snag in when the camera shuts off midway through. After troubleshooting the problem and a bit of backtracking on the parts were lost, we quickly get back on track. Proving that sometimes, the best thing we can do is to keep moving forward and make the best of what we have. (It also proves that I should never be trusted to manage the audio and video equipment solely by myself, as I am still a knuckle-dragging Neanderthal when it comes to technology).
