Today was the first day I set up at the local flea market. I’d gathered several knives, purchased from various thrift stores and had them all sharpened to perfection. I sold 5 out of the 9 I had and sharpened 2 folders, 1 machete and a squared of military looking thing called a hatchet.
It wasn’t a great money making day, but the talk from the people was encouraging. Many promises of them bringing knives next week, and those that got their knives sharpened seemed honestly impressed.
I was amazed to find out just how many men can scratch their blades on a stone and have it come out better than my WE can do 😛 All I said was that if it works for you, then that’s what you need to do.
My jig to hold small pocket knives came in today. That’s several more dollars I could’ve made today but had to put them off until next week.
Came away with 70.00 more than I started with, and a good feeling about my future in this sharpening business.
