On episode 596 of The Knife Junkie Podcast, Bob DeMarco speaks with Jess Hoffman of J. Hoffman Knives. Jess is a Northeast Wisconsin knifemaker who has transformed his hobby into a part-time career, making heirloom quality fixed blade knives from scratch for outdoor enthusiasts. His first knife was made with nothing but a file and elbow grease, but today he runs a fully-equipped shop producing knives that sell out at retailers like Knives Ship Free.Jess shares insights into his knife-making process, from his preference for heat treating before grinding to his philosophy on creating knives as functional tools rather than display pieces. His designs, many named after Irish counties as a nod to his family heritage, focus on ergonomics and practical use. Unlike many knife makers who aim to go full-time, Jess is content keeping his craft as a supplementary passion that will eventually support his retirement.The conversation covers the technical aspects of knife making, including steel selection, handle materials, and grind styles, along with business strategies and Jess's experiences at Blade Show. Listeners will appreciate his advice for new makers, emphasizing the value of mentorship and hands-on learning over YouTube tutorials.

We continue our special program honoring the 50th anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War (March 29th). Gail and Kim Nohr with Veterans 1st of Northeast Wisconsin join Jim and John to give us an update on the tiny home village they're trying to build to help housing insecure veterans have a stable start toward owning or renting their own housing. They share the good news that, hopefully, after several hurdles, they're getting closer to breaking ground on this project. We offer our respect and thanks to Kim and Gail for their hard work on this very important project. Then, Joe Aulik from the Brown County Veterans Services office joins the show to encourage Veterans to do a yearly check-in with the local offices to see what services and offerings are available. From health care to education funds and more, Joe says it's important to do a yearly check-in because programs continue to change and, in some cases, expand.

Kevin Osgood and John Craemer from the USCG Auxiliary join the show to promote boating safety courses.

Two wonderful local artists are in the studio this hour. First, Spencer Nolan Young, who has painted the famous Packer fences for the past several years, cleats for the players, and many other projects in Northeast Wisconsin and all over the country.

Then, another great local artist, Ace Champion, pulls up with food, flutes and FIRE! He's planning a great cooking class at Paradise North Distillery this Thursday night!

As Foreigner said "It's As Cold As Ice" out there! Even colder. Air temperatures in Northeast Wisconsin were at -11 at the show's start, with a wind chill of -31.

Jason Schulist, Executive Director of the Fox Valley Data Exchange, brought his extensive problem-solving experience to the People Solve Problems podcast hosted by Jamie Flinchbaugh. With over 30 years of experience across construction, automotive, utility, and paper industries, Jason shared valuable insights about understanding and addressing different types of problems. At Fox Valley Data Exchange, Jason works to make community data accessible across three counties in Northeast Wisconsin. The organization helps stakeholders understand how people thrive by examining factors like meaningful work, wealth, physical health, and transportation. In addition to this role, Jason leads the Generative Local Community Institute, focusing on creating economic models that help people flourish. Jason introduced listeners to the Cynefin model, which provides a framework for categorizing problems into clear, complicated, complex, and chaotic domains. He emphasized that different types of problems require different approaches and tools. For example, while manufacturing problems might have clear cause-and-effect relationships, community issues often fall into the complex domain where patterns shift and traditional solutions may not work. Drawing from his experience addressing poverty in his community, Jason shared a compelling case study. His team discovered that earning $18 per hour represented a crucial threshold for stability in their area. They identified three key factors that helped people overcome poverty: some post-secondary education, having or expecting a child, and maintaining consistent employment for six to twelve months. Using this information, they set a goal to double the rate at which people moved out of poverty, from 3.5% to 7%. The project involved 27 parallel experiments, demonstrating Jason's approach to complex adaptive problems. One successful initiative identified eight certification programs - dubbed the "Elite Eight" - that consistently led to stable employment above the target wage. Another successful experiment involved connecting with people who were just a few classes short of completing their certifications, helping them finish their education and secure better-paying jobs. He emphasized the importance of collaboration in community problem-solving. He highlighted the success of CI Squared (Continuous Improvement times Community Improvement), a volunteer group of more than 55 continuous improvement professionals who have participated in over 80 interactions with nonprofits. These volunteers apply their professional skills to help community organizations address challenges and develop strategic plans. Throughout the conversation, he demonstrated how different problem-solving approaches can be adapted and combined to address complex community challenges. His work shows that while some problems can be solved directly, others - particularly in the complex domain - need to be addressed through iteration, observation, and pattern recognition.

Ironically, we have more football on the show's menu! We start with Spencer Larson, Stadium Services Manager with the Green Bay Packers. One of his main gigs is running the Packers Hall of Fame. Spencer talks about the wide range of individuals who visit Lambeau and the Hall of Fame. His story starts in Appleton, being a batboy with the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers, working in Madison, Eau Claire and then to Minnesota with the Minnesota Wild. He found the gig with the Packers and seems to be "all smiles" about it! It's definitely a great story! Then, Northeast Wisconsin's own Tanor Bortolini joins via the phone. From Kewaunee, and having played for the Badgers, he's just finished his first season in the NFL with the Indianapolis Colts. It's great hearing how excited he still is with playing professional ball and playing with team members he's watched play for a number of years. He says he was pretty amazed to play against Aaron Rodgers this season.
