[QUOTE="Bill Coye, post: 2400339, member: 10719"] Right on! I hope to get the order book back open before the Blade Show in ATL in June. I've been swamped with orders and that's the primary reason I had to close the book and why I'm not at Wannemacher any longer. This Knife sub-forum is going to get more and more of the "cost" responses. A knife maker that's not a hobbyist that produces knives for a living must have had the demand in place to make that jump to full-time. Although still picking up the odd RN shift, I closed the crime scene cleanup business and starting making knives full-time Sept. 1, 2013. Between Facebook & Instagram it has become brutally apparent that the educational deficit pertaining to custom knives is vast. People are free to state their opinions.......but based on what information? Their understanding of the custom knife market? How many hours it takes over how many days to make one knife? or is it the fact that they're not in a position financially to purchase custom knives. I too have spent twice what my knives run on a particular makers knife. I also carry a $800.00 pistol and a $600.00 knife and use the crap out of both of them. The bottom line is this: you're either a knife guy or you're not. If you are a knife guy then you get it. If you're not a knife guy the whole thing is going to blow your mind. I'm not advertising here or trying to sell anyone anything. As stated earlier the order book is closed. An OSA member shot me a FB message that there was a new knife sub-forum and I stopped in to say hello. That's it. [email]info@coyeknives.com[/email] is the best way to get a hold of me. BC [/QUOTE]
