Ha! Just kidding. Kinda.

This year Christmas falls on a Friday. Fiddleback Forge gives two paid days off to all employees on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day so that everyone can celebrate Jesus' Birthday with their families. I will not make Phillip be the only employee required to work on Christmas. In addition, I don't want anyone to have to miss out on family time to be near their computer for the sharking. As it happens much the same situation happens the following week for the 1st of the year. Due to this we will move the sale thread to Wednesday for those two weeks. And finally, to avoid stepping on WAS Wednesdays, we will merge Allen's sales thread with ours on both of those days. Nothing else about the thread or the weekly schedule will change. After the Christmas New Years holidays pass, we will resume the Fiddleback Friday Festivities as usual.



On a more personal note, I want to thank all of our customers from the bottom of my heart for their support. Knifemaking is a calling for me. It was the answer to a desperate prayer for direction. I put my faith in what I do and follow the knives without doubt or fear. The company has succeeded to this point not because of me. It succeeds because of you all. Thank you for providing this for me and my employees. We love you more than you know.
 
Andy, I am a newbie in this forum but wanted to share with you that we as customers are the natural outcome of the usable art pieces that you and your team are creating... your work is amazing. If you would not do what you do, there would be no company. I wish you, the entire team @ Fiddleback and your respective families all the best and hope you will all have some quality time with your loved ones over the holidays.
 
Andy:

You have our heartfelt support for all you and your crew do to craft awesome tools......Merry Christmas !

You are a great man that truly knows how to run a business from every angle. Andy, you and your knives have seriously changed some of our lives, you finding your direction gave me direction, and I will always support Fiddleback Forge.
 
You know how to get folks to look at the thread. :D

Thanks for making this change and keeping Christmas the special holiday that it is. I'm guessing some of us will be unwrapping Fiddlebacks that morning, but not having to shark that day will be good.

Wishing you and your family and the Forge crew a Merry Christmas.
 
whew! got me all scared! we of course knew this, but still good to know that you're an employer who cares about the well being of your employees. Thanks for the heads up!
 
Merry Christmas to all! Thanks Andy and the Fiddleback team for this forum and making functional art! :thumbup::)
 
Scared me with the title. Glad everyone will get to have a break. Merry Christmas to everyone!
