I posted this on another website. Where folks don't think stainless is a viable option for a survival knife.

I admit to having some fun with them.
Enjoy,


Disclaimer:
There is no sense reading beyond this point. Anyone who would take a Stainless Steel knife into the woods is most certainly a duffer. His advice will likely get you killed if followed. Please read and sign the release at the bottom before continuing.

Well that's all she wrote. I have to go wash and oil my knife before it starts to rust.

Oh wait?

Ha, I crack myself up!

LMAO. Too funny.
 
Sam, Sam, Sam,

Could you please quit posting in my threads!
Every time I see your name. I scroll down and click on your website.

Then I click my way to your P.A.C.Knife,
http://www.wilsoncustomknives.com/product/p-a-c-knife/#prettyPhoto[product-gallery]/0/

That thing, with its green cord wrapped handle and that stunning wet formed leather sheath is the epitome of Dufferdom. Why, if I had one of those. I might attempt to venture out of Ma's basement. Who knows what kind of adventures might follow.

No more cutting up the closet doors to make feather sticks. I would use real trees.

Maybe I'd sleep under the real stars instead of the little silver sticky ones over my cot.

Why, I could even make a hot dog stick, or maybe a tarp peg.

No wait, what am I thinking.
The only thing worse than a stainless steel knife. Is a stainless steel knife with a hollow handle.
What could you possibly want to carry with you all the time? Right with your knife? Always dry and ready?
Get serious!

You're going to get me killed brother. Do you want that on your conscious? Do You?

Send me that thing and I will destroy it for you. Before somebody gets hurt.
I can see the headlines now. "Homicide By Lack of Carbide - Wilson Indicted"

It will be all over the news. You will be ruined. Is that what you want?
Get that thing boxed up man, before it's too late.


Anybody with half a brain knows, stainless is only for steak knives,



Watch out for the bones, they'll take a hunk of steel right off that thing.



Boy was Ma peeved when I did this. Filled the whole house with smoke.

Sargeant Stryker, Great Flick!

If those guys in that fox hole had some stainless when Thomas was sipping that coffee. They'd still be here today.

Then Stryker wouldn't of had to put the whoopin' on him.

I can still hear that famous line, "Pull your Blouse"
 
Muahahahahaha, you mean this knife here???

At least it's stainless, we all know carbon steel contributes to the breakdown of the ozone layer. Remember kids, if you don't want to destroy the planet, use a stainless steel knife!
 
Mr Wilson I'm not sure if you spend more time doing PR for your knives, or making them. :D

Astronauts? Pffft! TSA doesn't allow knives on space flights anymore! Did our armed forces use stainless knives to defend Pearl Harbor against the German attack? NO!

German attack? Has Germany attacked Pearl Harbor?

I know the first attack was by the Russians.

Then…next was the Ottoman Turks, right? I can never remember.

Now you’re telling me about the Germans did the same thing?

It’s too much to keep track of!
 
That is an inadequet knife. There is no screwdriver and no can opener. How many nicks did you get on that blade opening that can of breakfast?
 
A great product sitting on a shelf in a shop serves no one.

Being in the knife business, or indeed any business, is much more than making product.

It needs to serve a purpose.
It needs to provide value,
It needs be competittively priced.
It needs to provide profit to the maker.

And most importantly, it needs to find its way into customers hands.

No easy mission.

A lot of knife makers can make great knives.
Some are even great at promoting them.
A few can live up to time and quality commitments.

Achieve all three and you will be very successful.
 
Not really a can, more of an easy open Bowl,


Just pop it all in the the Micro and you're good to go.

One of my favorite Carbon knives got the nod as food processor that morning.
The BK-16 opening the can,



6S Survival - Food Prep Tip of the Day. If you slice a flat spot on the bottom of your onion. It will sit there while you slice it instead of sliding all over the place.

You don't have to call me "Mr.", I'm just a regular guy who happens to make knives, but thank you. And it's a safe bet that if you see me posting here I'm probably promoting my knives, although I started in this thread here just having fun ribbing the carbon steel guys. But that's why you see my name in orange letters. I pay the owner of this site for the privilege of promoting my knives. Because I like selling them so that I get money, and then I use that money to pay my bills and buy food. As LostViking aptly pointed out, people have to know your product exists and it has to sell for you to be successful. Otherwise I can't keep doing what I love, which is making knives. Thank you for your interest.

No, unfortunately the mascot for stainless bush knives looks like this:
