Solicitations from India

[Craig Gottlieb]

Guys: Did you know that I get about 2 of these things a month! Below is the text of a recent email I received from an Indian Khukuri "manufacturer."

With reference to the above, we invite your good selves please to visit our web-site for further details.

If interested in importing any of our khukuris far below your current prices we are sure, please revert back immediately to enable us to proceed further and oblige.

Awaiting your quick and positive actions per return.

That's basically what all of these solicitors have to say. And thanks to the high standards demanded of us by the GH customers, I can proudly respond to such inquiries "Thanks, but no thanks."

Stay sharp,

Craig.

Its nice to know that you won't cheat someone for a profit. We need all the people like you that we can get.

That's nice of you, Big Bob, but do you really think I could get an Indian khukuri by anybody if I WAS dishonest? Not a chance.

We all know that Cliff would make short work of a second-rate khukuri. It's nice having someone like Cliff around -- if a knife can survive a "Cliff test" it can survive anything.

Yeah, I'd love Cliff to do a bend test on an Atlanta Cutlery design - just to see how many pounds would be required to bend the blade - I suspect not more than a couple hundred.
