I QUIT my job to make knives

[@dusky2dawn30]

Your work is amazing. Been following you for a while now, and just saw this old video. Total respect. Looking forward to loads more videos.

buildalongs, how to's, also I love the time lapse build videos with voice over instructions of what you did and why. Love that content.

[@richardbranton190]

Looks like you made the right decision 👍

[@ericlbarton01]

Love your stuff on the gram. Glad to see more in-depth stuff here. I'm looking forward to learning!

[@NedKnives]

This video was super relatable and helpful for me because I am in the transition period of quitting my day job so I can make knives full time. I also have a 3 year old son and I would like to stay home more and help out raising him. Thank you!

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Well that’s awesome man! Good luck and let me know if you have any questions!

[@hedbergforgemetalworks7783]

Hey man! I know this video was a while ago but I went full time making knives myself about a year ago. I have to say it’s been challenging but I’m determined to make it work. I went full time after my win on Forged in Fire and it’s definitely something I want to continue. If you have any advice I’d definitely appreciate it. Love your videos! Keep them coming.

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Well that’s great man I’m glad you’re making it work! Message me any time if you want to chat!

It would be cool to see the process of you making a fillet knife. That would be a cool video.

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

I can definitely do that!!! Thank you!

What are you so quickly cutting your sandpaper strips with in this video?

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

I just tear it along the table 🤷‍♂️lol

[@tonypintarelli877]

Thanks for sharing your story. Roughly how many knives per year were you selling when you decided to go all in?

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

That’s a tough question! Lol I still don’t know how many knives I put out per year, definitely something I should try to keep track of 😆

[@davidhalpin7600]

What's about the price of a knife

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Depends on what model you are interested in! Most start around 200$ 😀👍
