I just want to be clear that I think it is fantastic that Eric is selling every knife that he makes!

Word of warning folks: I had to use pink tissue paper for padding in the knife boxes . It's all they had left.

Don't be haters.

Someone will post a knife from this batch on ebay or BF with an exponentially larger price with caption "Albers knife with rare one-off pink tissue paper"

You guys crack me up. It does contrast nicely with the black box though, maybe I should see about getting some pink velvet pouches.

Don't over do it, you can go to the well once too often..

ea42 I’m no financial genius, but I believe at this point in your company’s life cycle you are supposed to:

1.1)change company name to www.bestknifecompanyintheworld.com or something memorable like FrickleFrackle,
1.2) move company HQ to Silicon Valley or Austin, TX,

2) draw colorful graph showing exponential increase in sales volume and time to out of stock on “deliverables”,

3) draft financial projections which assume exponential growth will never end and so in 27 months every knife made and sold in the world will be made and sold by your company,

4) sell company to a hedge fund, or maybe Apple (iKnife? you might consider making a sample for Tim Cook with sapphire glass covers)

5) retire from the hustle and bustle of business,

6) go fishing.

The business life cycle of my dreams! Unfortunately reality tells me that in my world that'll never happen. I'd be happy with just #6!

Where's meako ? I throw a perfectly good insult at him, and he ignores me.....

my feelings are hurt....

or.... he's writing up a really REALLY good response.... perhaps I should brace myself...

Well, I’m just getting to know folks around here, and I don’t know you two gentlemen yet, but I saw your post and that is exactly what I would be doing! Can’t wait to see his post!

well.... meako is the forum's poet laureate, so to speak. He's usually pretty verbose. Sometimes you can even understand him. He was chosen to write the "message" that came with all the 2019 Forum Knives, and did a bang-up job.

He lives in Australia, or New Zealand, or Kentucky... some way off place like that....

 

[meako]

I have to go drive a school bus right now...
I'll deal with you later....."verbose" am I ?!..whyyyooou.!.rasssen frassen drassenhornyguy...
I have a strange feeling that Im being baited....
AND...just to make things nice and sparkling clear...like the ocean on my birthday when me and The Countess went on a whale watching cruise at Merimbula....

GREAT pic, by the way....
