Oh my goodness my friend, I get it I tried three of these and contemplated cutting my hands off so I didn't have to #### with that #### anymore. Sorry for the bad language but that's the way I felt. I don't have the type of set up in my shop, or the patience, and you are correct you cannot charge the amount of money it takes to pull off something like this correctly. I'm still finding that with the cost of goods steel and The cost of heat treating and other materials it's hard to have good margins to make any profit off of handmade goods especially when you do not use water jet, CNC machining, and some pre-fabricated parts. I preferred to do everything by hand, if you like it it'll serve you well I guarantee it, if not go buy a friggin Benchmade. By the way my good brother you did do an excellent job with that, irs Purdy!
