Join host Bob DeMarco for Episode 643 of The Knife Junkie Podcast, featuring Scott Baldwin, better known as Scab from Choirboyz Cutlery Outdoors.
This episode delivers an honest, inspiring conversation about knife collecting, content creation, personal transformation, and building community through shared passion for quality blades. Whether you are a seasoned collector or just starting your knife journey, this episode provides practical advice from one of Knife Tube's most authentic voices.
Scab shares the personal story behind Choirboyz Cutlery Outdoors, explaining how his channel began during recovery from addiction and grew into a respected source for real-world knife reviews. He discusses his favorite part of Blade Show (hint: it is not just the knives), offers advice for new content creators, and breaks down his daily carry philosophy of carrying three pocket knives plus a pocket fixed blade.
The conversation also covers affordable American-made knives from Self Reliance Outfitters, the advantages of pocket fixed blades, and why authenticity matters more than perfection in content creation.
Throughout the episode, Scab demonstrates why he has become such a trusted voice in the knife community. His reviews come from actual use rather than marketing hype, his advice comes from real experience, and his passion for helping others shines through every topic.
From Magnacut steel to lifetime warranties, from Blade Show connections to the transformative power of finding your passion, this episode covers it all with honesty and heart.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
