Paul Baleta is back!

This week we catch up with returning guest Paul Baleta of Baleta Handmade, who shares how relocating from Austria back to the UK has transformed his knife-making journey. From downsizing to a more compact workshop to tackling the unique restrictions and opportunities of the UK knife scene, and how he has been adapting his business to this new market. Paul walks us through the work behind his custom-built display cabinets, explains how show setups in the UK differ from Europe, and offers practical tips for first-time exhibitors gearing up for events like Knife Show Austria.
