Episode 40 - From Farrier to Knife Famous - Kelly Vermeer Vella
Kelly Vermeer Vella is a rare bird, because as high as she soars, she still seems to have two feet firmly planted on the ground. In every success, award, and other achievement I see her get, I am always rooting for her. Probably because she represents the underdog in her demeanor, and also embodies the superstar. This kind of enigma in knife culture is what drew me to her work, and wanting to have her as a guest on the show. Who doesn't want to get to know someone who seems to be untainted by fame, and as down to earth and humble as if she's the newcomer on a very established scene? Kelly deserves every eye on her, and more, and getting to see her creations is like watching a chef invent and allow the tasting of a new banger of a recipe. You'll enjoy her, we all do.
Follow Kelly on her social media, and join us fly on the walls watching her fame unfold. You can find her on Instagram and Facebook.
