I received an e-mail from the prince or Persia last night. One of his servants saw my second forged blade on my website and summoned his Majesty's presence at the royal computer room.

The knife was forged from an ultra-high-performance steel that I got from the DollarTree store in the form of a prybar.

This prybar was such a good design , all I had to do was just put an edge on it. I explained to the prince ; through his interpreter, that the hole near the front would decrease wind resistance and improve performance. Also it could be used to pull nails from the hooves of his camel. I also explained that the reason I only took it to 220 grit. This will allow for better moisture holding, which is very important in the desert.

Through my exhaustive processes of trying to improve my pattented
UHP processes. A strange blue appearance has formed on the surface of my blade. Could be the factory blue paint didnt all get sanded off properly. I'll have my team of proctologists check on that .

The crowned prince was so delighted and anxious to get the knife, that I dont even have to ship it to him. His private jet will be arriving in moments at Norfolk and an armored truck will be picking it up.


UPDATE!

The prince was delighted!!!!

Turns out that while on route back to the airport, the trucks radiator hose busted. I explained to the driver that any REAL UHP blade has a handle of ultra-high-performance duct tape for a handle. The driver peeled off a few layers and repaired the hose.This turned out to be a real boon for me. By removing a few layers of the tape, it made the handle fit the princes hand better. His interpreter explained that the prince said the handle felt like "The Teet of his most prized goat.

Please dont be jealous of my good fortune , it demeans us all :p
 
Mark, when and where will classes be held showing us your pry bar transformations into gold. Sounds like a want-to-be's dream come true. :p :D

:D ...and you spent the whole 75G on Prozac right? :D

Thanks for the morning smile Mark.
 
Master Mark. Does this prince have a brother or something? I have come across an exquisite rusty R.R..spike which is to be forged into an exceptional blade. This (rusty) high carbon addition to the steel will add to the strength of the blade. The (secrete) patented process will make it deserving of collection grade status. It will out preform most spikes of its kind and be an unusual addition to any princely arsenal. It will be worth its weight in gold! Keep me informed.

Mark originally was going to use a fossilized camel penis for the handle,but the harem stole it.
 
you know you've got to post pictures to go with a post like that, it's the only way to scientifically prove the blade.
 
How could you even consider posting the price? I am a firm believer in your mumbo jumbo but that knife is not worth a penny over $74,000. Dirty

Please excuse Master Mark.......He hasn't been well lately, and apparently, he "ain't never been just right". :eek:

On a lighter note......... I sold my first knife for $5.00 and two days later, the guy offered me $10.00 to take it back. :rolleyes: Now that is how the business end of knifemaking works. :D :D
