Vince Molina and Ryan Brodbeck

Vince and Ryan are the owners of Brodbeck Ironworks, one of the fastest growing Grinder companies around today. I met them both a few years ago and have been a fan of them and their company for a while. Both mechanical engineers and knife makers they met as competitors on the TV phenomenon “Forged in Fire” on similar paths. It was a fascinating conversation on who they are how they met and what are the chances that meeting on FIF would create this partnership. Fast forward to Brodbeck grinders are now on the set of of the show they met on. Stories of immigrating from violence torn El Salvador to taking a chance on a partnership, Brodbeck Ironworks is an example of the American Dream. Definitely listen to this Episode and give them a follow. Check out Brodbeck Ironworks for yourself:https://brodbeckironworks.com/***TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEIR HUGE BLACK FRIDAY SALE FROM 11/20-11/27****$325 OFF THE MAX PLUS PACKAGE$415 OFF THE PREMIUM PLUS GRINDER $545 OFF THE SUPER MEGA PACKAGE $200 OFF THE SURFACE GRINDER 10% OFF ATTACHMENTSFollow Brodbeck Ironworks on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/brodbeck_ironworks/Follow Ryan Brodbeck on instagram:https://www.instagram.com/nightowlforge/Follow Vince Molina on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/dreamerforgeknives/Follow Full Blast and interact with the show on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/thefullblastpodcast/***** Last episode with Kev Slattery had an overpowering reaction and I want to reiterate that Kev has started a crowd funding page to help raise money for the procedure he needs to fix his back.
