Wow well done!!!!!!Thanks everyone! I think I have responded to all emails through 1:30 today. If you sent one before today and haven't heard back, please let me know.
How did I miss this hmmm....
There will still be weekly sales - may the knife gods be ever in your favor!How did I miss this hmmm....
Pre-orders are great because you cry once and then forget about it, and 8-16 months later, you get 'free surprise knives'!Take your time Jo, and thank you for all your efforts. I actually like the waiting for CPK Preorders - gives me something to look forward to for a while longer.
Well said!I meant to say this earlier, but thank you toNathan the Machinist ,
Jo the Machinist , and the rest of the CPK crew for putting on this preorder, and thank you to this community as well.
I get the impression that you guys really don’t want to do preorders, and with good reason. They are stressful to execute and a lot of extra work for sales that would’ve happened anyway. It can also bring negativity from people who don’t read the fine print or don’t understand how it all works.
This is really something you do for the community, to get more of your tools into our hands in a relatively stress-free way. More stress for you, less for us. Thank you for that.
It’s a testament to your company that you keep prices down for the user in the face of high demand, and that you do these preorders to alleviate pent up demand. It speaks to your integrity.
I’m new to these parts, but for years I’ve been interested in the way these tools are meticulously designed and made.
Now I finally have a CPK in my future. This preorder was straightforward and simple. I certainly don’t mind waiting for a good thing - something to look forward to.
I’m really grateful to the CPK crew for being committed to your community.
And Jo, you are a rockstar for corresponding with each and every one of us!
I also want to express my gratitude for everyone here. A big part of the draw to CPK is the community around it, so thank you all for posting, sharing, and building a unique space to discuss CPK, knives, steel, and life in general.
Cheers!
Lot of people buy them for resale to make a profit. Me....I'm greedy. I want all I can get. Not saying I won't use one for trade.I imagine there will be more than a few available after they ship. The Basic5’s and FK3’s have been hitting the market very regularly since they’ve been landing in mailboxes.
