The first one to post "I'll take it" gets the knife.

Please add $9.00 to the price of the knife to cover shipping(within the US). Contact me for international shipping rates.

My Paypal is [austing71011 at gmail dot com] (it's also my personal e-mail address if you have any questions.)


Thank you for considering my work,

Austin Goldman

Austin, at that price I wouldn't only consider your work, i'd consider having you make my knives for me... you wouldn't even have to change much for one of my models, lol it's very similar (might i add, a very well thought out "no nonsense" design) you sir are under charging.

he is speaking the truth , nice clean simple design and underpriced
 
Honestly, one of the biggest things I've learned is to find out what you are worth per hour and how much you pay to build a knife and price accordingly... and you have to take EVERYTHING into account, not just materials. you have to look at shipping costs (too and from in all directions) HT, sand paper, drill bits, glues and epoxy, belts, the electricity in your shop... EVERYTHING! Then you'll know how much it cost just to make that knife, then calculate how many hours you put into it and see how much you make per hour, all before calculating the price... don't sell yourself short! at $100, I wouldn't make much... I don't make much on what I charge either, but I'm not willing to work for $5 an hour.

P.S. I know this sounds stupid, but a lot of times if you charge well below what knives go for usually, people don't buy them because they feel as though you are charging less for a reason... like poor quality or whatnot.

I have done that and it cost me about $65.00 to build a small simple knife with a sheath . This does not count the cost of electricity or pay pal and ship cost to customer .
 
Hey Austin: very nice.... I would have taken this one if i had only got here sooner... Good buy, to someone.
