On Episode 19 of The Knife Junkie Podcast, Bob "The Knife Junkie" DeMarco speaks with Adam Porras, an Army veteran with 20 years of service in the U.S. Army -- in 18 countries -- about the healing power of making knives at Recovery Forge in Lorton, Va.

Porras was diagnosed with PTSD in 2011, and around the same time, a traumatic brain injury, and a broken back. “Blade Therapy” or forging provided an outlet.

Recovery Forge teaches the basics of bladesmithing to veterans, active duty, first responders and caregivers through the use of an fire, anvil and hammer.
