Sell Your Knife (cKc Knives (c) 2009 )

cKc Knives is not a business. its a hobby, and a passion. A Business typically has a singular driving goal
which is to generate a profit. At cKc the goal is to generate Pride, and Passion in the Oldest and most useful
tool mankind ever created.

my hobby and passion is quality knives. I love using, handling and collecting them. There are many
kinds of knives and knifemakers in the world.
Many focus on the Art of the knife. a knife that might well work as a functional knife, but really has its
roots in being a collection piece or artistry that is unlikely to ever see the light of day or be put to the test.
Like any fine piece of art, the price can become whatever someone is willing to pay for it. Add expensive cosmetic
features and the prices can get out of hand. Many knives seem to focus on the "Sex Appeal" or selling attributes of a knife, and
as long as it can slice a piece of paper its good to go.

We are surrounded by millions of Bad, Good, or reasonable quality production knives. Some can be had at ridiculously
low prices because of mass production acheivements. Some are extremely high because of the materials or Supply/demand.

Then there are the toolmakers. People that take pride in building a tool. A Tool works for you. a tool makes your life easier.
a tool focuses on high quality working parts that will last, and a tool focuses on performing its function well.
Tools get used. they get dirty, they suffer the hardships of any labourer.

A good tool will last and give you the satisfaction of using a finely crafted tool.

Fine tools are their own reward and do not require themselves to be beautified beyond their primary function. The
beauty of a fine tool comes in the using of it, not the looking at it from a distance.

You can get cheaper knives anywhere. You can get more artistic knives anywhere. More expensive knives are easy to find.
cKc Knives are for the few who recognize a superior functioning tool beyond others.
They are for those that take pleasure in making hard use of anothers hard work and recognize that diamonds are not Zirconias.

ARE cKc KNIVES RIGHT FOR YOU?

If you are the type of person that goes to the hardware store and gets a $10 hammer because its the cheapest, then get a Mora, or Victorinox. It will work just fine, for a while.
If you are the type of person that buys the most expensive Hammer they can find and places it on a shelf for all his friends to see then buy a pretty, overpriced custom, with the finest polish, and silver inlays, using the best mammoth ivory tusk you can find. It may well work fantasically for you, but will loose the glitter and shine you paid hard money to aquire on the first hard use it gets.
If you are the type of person that looks for the right hammer for the job, and pays whatever the price knowing that you just got the hammer which will make your life easier, then you've stopped at the right place to find a knife. Put the money into the quality and the design. It might be a little rough looking now, but it wont change much after you put it to use. No money wasted on features that will disappear. All the money is invested in the features.
