Well, not to get off the subject, but I had a question I wanted to ask you. Do you use a Hewlett Packard Scanner? Because they have duel scan technology, and their scanners will photograph a knife in black and white if you do not put some color in the back ground to get it to scan in color. Of course you can only photograph an object that reflects light, and a lot of the material on knives absorb more than they reflect. Can you put anything in the plastic, that would cause them to photograph better, that is to reflect more light? Of course most people prefer a material that will reflect light, and allow light to pass through it(transparent), but I guess that would not be very practial for knives.
>> John - How does one make them harder to copy?
Oh, you know where I got that from? Blade Magazines Tek Knife edition. They had an artical on Ray Appleton, and how no one seems to be able to copy his designs, much less his mechanisms. Just a thought.
I just try to keep far enough ahead of them, that I make my money and go onto something else, before they catch up with me. I run my tests, and when I see something selling I order up my inventory and flood the market, and by the time they figure out what is going on, its to late for them to make any money. Thanks, JohnR7
