Koray Yavaş of Idamai Forge

This week, we’re joined by Koray Yavaş from Idamai Forge, nestled at the foothills of the majestic Ida Mountains in Turkey. When he’s not working as an engineer on merchant ships, Koray dedicates his time at home to forging exceptional blades. Using hard-to-find steels that are unavailable in Turkey, Koray brings his creativity and resourcefulness to every blade he crafts.
