Angry Kit knives a LIE

It has come to my attention that the knives I make and sell are " Kit " knives I assure you they are not. If you think they are then find some that are identical to mine . I did offer one on Karma and stated it was a kit . It was free even though I put a lot of work into it .

I info. this site early on that I do not hammer out my blades anymore due to health issues . Plus if I did you would not get them for what I charge . They would be in the Hundreds of dollars .

I make about $ 30.00 on my knives which comes out to be about $1.oo an hour labor .

I may offer more knives in the future but only if you trust my work .

If you don't I'll move along ( this will make at least one individual happy )

Enough said .

IMO, if that one individual doesn't care for your knives and has a problem with them he should be the one to move along, not you Arley.

I don't think you are misleading anyone here. Even if you made them from a kit you finished it. I would equate that to assembling an AR upper then selling it. I would have no problem buying something made or assembled by the members of this forum. Keep doing what you are doing.
