Seems like at least one Kephart (if I remember correctly, this is the one you sell the most of?) would be a good choice. Maybe have it on your belt as your personal carry and allow the potential customers to ogle it at will... might lead to a few orders down the road.
 
kephart's good, TK and Iris, or one fo those mii pot's, figure some of those folks might like a neck knife option to? :D
 
What about the powa...necker? I have one of those, I think those great little knives...
 
gotta take an XD XM - and a DBH -

I will send you mine if you want to display them...

I do think you have the right idea about taking lower prices models. I tried my hand at selling production knives once. I got a table at a gun show and found that people couldn't believe I wanted $100+ for knives.

My thoughts exactly. I`m not expecting much success, but it`s worth it, even just to get my cards in people`s hands.
 
Take an ebony handled Nessmuk and if it doesn't sell...
 
I think going with lower priced models is a good idea. I have friends who will pay $1000+ for a gun and never consider paying $100 for a knife.
