Whenever I make knives for a sale it seems like the ones I think will sell first just seem to sit. I'm curious which models you guys think would be hot sellers. Apparently I'm not "in touch" with what people want. Let's hear some ideas!
 
I'm boggled -- I expected the camp knife and Basik to disappear quick.
 
I was 15 minutes late for the B & T!

Maybe you should make a few of your best sellers to post for sale.

The last best seller I had was the Elements, but I have not sold one of those in quite a while. I don't really have any best seller anymore, that's why I keep trying new ideas.
 
So many of your knives are awesome...my personal favs are the pocket scandi, Phoenix, rule #9, EWOK, and Toby's knife. They get used a lot! Especially the smaller ones. Toby's is my kitchen paring knife, the EWOK and Pocket Scandi are my hiking and biking knives, respectively. Maybe there's interest in a run of them?
 
I like the Mud Turtle pretty well. You also made a small clip point as a present for someone that I liked the look of. I also like the look of the Element series and wouldn't mind a larger version of those. I came to the forum tonight to check out some of your current work. I'm trying to pay down some CC debt we've gathered but I am hoping to get something from you soon.
 
Looking at your website I also dig the GBH. That might be my order but in 1/8 inch steel if possible.

This is exactly how I feel.

I can understand your offering of your knives to this sub first, but I definitely noticed that your knives sell pretty quickly in the exchange.
You do have a nice following here, but I know that I am not in a position to jump on every knife that I like and there may be a few in a comparable position.

By opening your knives up to the exchange, you hit a Much larger audience. I know it isn't hard for someone to poke their head in here and grab a knife, but if this isn't a place they frequent, then it isn't going to be habit to seev what is going on.

Humans are creatures of habit, for better or worse.
 
That camp knife is a really nice design and my personal favorite, but it's also over twice the price of everything else in that thread (except the Basik.) That might have something to do with it.
 
I don't get it either, John.

I loved the basik, but between the friction folder I have on order with you, and your advanced knife class, I just didn't have the money right now.

It seems like yours sell pretty quick on the exchange. Maybe you need to post more there, where there's a wider audience.
 
I'd like to see that bulldog (I think that's what's it's called) and the belt hawk on special with a puukko! Holy smokes that would be a sweet fall gift.
 
It seems like even my special offers don't catch on. I'm going to do one more, then call it quits.
 
If I had any idea that would help I would make a suggestion but it seems my thoughts are not normally very popular. I did like the Camp Cook model in the last sale. Something similar to that may be my next JK.
