Behind the Scenes with Champion Knives

Fire, steel and a whole lot of skill. We headed out west with filmmaker Conan Fitzpatrick to visit Hayden Scott of Champion Knives and take a look inside his small forge, where raw steel is transformed into beautifully handcrafted culinary knives. It's hot, messy and fascinating to watch. And it's exactly the sort of creative process we love sharing through Open Studios Waitākere.
