Attention: People who love to make things with your hands…

Dear Friend,

My name is Dave Scott and I make my own knives.

If you ever thought about making your own knives, this might be one of the most interesting letters you’ve read in a long time. Over the next few minutes I’m going to do my best to convince you to be a knife maker just like me.

I can’t imagine a finer and more profitable hobby, and the pride from showing off the knives that you’ve made is one of the coolest feelings on earth.

So sit back, take just a few minutes, and read this short letter.

I think you’ll be glad you did.

I’m sure when you stumbled across this letter today you probably had no idea that you might learn to make your own knives, but the truth is, knifemaking is one of the greatest hobbies on earth.

It’s also one of the few skills you can learn that might actually save your life someday.

With gun laws changing and personal liberties being at an all-time low, I for one am glad I know how to make my own weapons right inside the privacy of my own home.

Over the years I’ve made knives, spears, cleavers, axes, tomahawks, hatchets and even machetes. Most of the knives I’ve made were created out of old scrap metal such as railroad spikes and old saw blades. In fact, one of the coolest knives I ever made in my life was made out of a spring from a tractor.

Just to be clear, these aren’t funky old prison shanks I’m making. These are what most people consider craftsman collector blades, but my big secret is, most only take a few hours to make.

There are a lot of reasons to start making your own knives:

• To learn a skill or an art that you can pass on to your children and grandchildren that will allow you to spend quality time with them.
  
  
• To make weapons that can protect yourself and your family in a real survival or an emergency preparedness situation.
  
  
• To have the pride of knowing that you made something beautiful, useful, and completely unique that you can carry with you every single day.
  
  
• To make extra money on the side selling these custom knives at gun shows or to friends and relatives.

I could talk forever about how cool it is to make knives, but until you’ve felt that new knife in your hands, that you pounded out of something that used to be just an old piece of scrap iron, you won’t be able to feel the experience. So please read the rest of this letter and learn how to become an avid knife maker like me…

That’s a darn good question.

I’ll answer it first by telling you how NOT to learn knife making… The way I did it, by trial and error, wasting hours of time, scrapping tons of good material, and living in frustration for over a year.

Yep, if you don’t have someone to show you the ropes, you can spend a full year learning how to make knives.

Or, as with most things, if you have an expert to show you the way, you can master the entire knifemaking process in just a few hours today… and I might even offer to be your mentor. I’m willing to show you every mistake that I made along the way and how I corrected it.

I’m willing to teach you all the basics and fundamentals you’ll need to know to make your first knives.

Most of all, I’m willing to show you all the tricks, hacks and secrets that master knife makers use to shorten the knifemaking process by as much as 90% while creating stunning results that most ordinary crafters will never know.

Having someone like me teach you knifemaking is without a doubt the fastest way I know to begin making beautiful knives right in your own garage or workshop.

A few months ago one of my best friends, Joe Marshall, who’s the editor of the successful blog Survival Life called me up and said "Dave, a bunch of our people want to learn to make knives, and rather than them screw up over and over again I think they’d rather learn from your mistakes"

Joe is a pretty smart guy and hard to argue with. So a few days later Joe sent out his camera crew and we spent two days filming what I believe is the best knifemaking course in the world.

During the course I show everything that I know about knifemaking down to the little tricks, hacks and tweaks that make my knives particularly unique.

The big secret that most knife makers don’t want you to know, is that it just ain’t that dang hard to make knives. The secret is in the sequence. If you do everything in the right order, making a knife is as easy as making a loaf of bread.

It’s a formula, a recipe of sorts. Once you learn it, you can’t unlearn it and it’s a skill you’ll have for the rest of your life.

You can teach it to your kids, your grandchildren, your best friends or anyone else you want. In fact, I want you to share these skills, that’s the biggest reason I’m doing this in the first place.

Just imagine how much fun you can have in your workshop or garage with your friends, or even your grandkids, making knives that they’ll keep for the rest of their lives. You’ll never forget the experience of making them, and they’ll never forget you for showing them how.

So the short answer to your question is, it’s pretty doggone easy to learn how to make knives.

I’m not going to stand here and tell you that you’ll become a master knife maker overnight, that would be a lie. But with a little bit of practice, and believe me you’ll want to practice because you’ll be hooked, you’ll be making knives that people will be drooling over. You can even sell these knives to make extra money from within just a few weeks.

Most of my students will make their first blade within a few hours of getting started. One thing I gotta tell you is that the first knife you’ll make may not be the most beautiful knife you’ll ever make.

You should be making knives you’re proud enough to show off in a week or two, and in a few months you’ll be making knives that you can even sell.

While a lot of my students make knives to sell, most just make them for fun, gifts, and to show off. Knifemaking is all about the pride you take in your work.

I don’t talk about money much but the truth is, once you know how to make knives, it’s pretty easy to make $15-$30 an hour in your garage.

Frankly, I don’t sell many of my knives because I fall in love with them. I do give them as gifts and there is nothing more personal.

My hope is that by now you have decided you want to learn how to make knives and I would like to humbly ask to be your instructor.

BONUS #2 DIY Forge Plans & Videos

Okay, I know by now if you’ve read this far you want to get the training and the bonuses in the entire package. As you can see above, this course with the bonuses has a real-world value over $250 but today only, you can have the entire package, everything we talked about, for the low price of just $47. That’s over 67% off the retail price!

Plus I’ll pay the shipping for your knife blanks anywhere inside the continental United States.  Now that’s a ridiculous offer.

I will be totally transparent with you here. I will not be selling Blademaster for this price or offering these bonuses for very long.

Why?

I’m only offering Blademaster at $47 to get 500 people to test it, use it and help me make it better. After that, the complete course on knifemaking will be raised to $197 and I will be taking away all of the bonuses.

Guarantee #1 If for ANY reason you are not completely satisfied with the Bladmaster Course, even if you don't like the color of the cover or the roughness of my voice on the recordings, just send me a personal email any time in the next 91 days for a full, prompt refund and I will insist you keep all my bonus gifts for FREE just for giving Blademaster an honest evaluation. Fair enough? There's more…

Guarantee #2 Simply make ONE knife using the methods taught in Blademaster any time within a full year and if it’s not just as cool, fun and easy as I said it was I will gladly reach into my own pocket and buy Blademaster back from you for $94 or DOUBLE your purchase price.

Guarantee #3 Implement all the strategies inside Blademaster and make just 3 knives and if you don't at least TRIPLE your investment in the course making these beautiful knives… First, I will gladly refund your full purchase price, next I will give you $100 cash out of my pocket for your time and trouble and to top it off I'll donate another $100 to a charity in your name.

I am that sure this will work for you.

YES! Please give me the entire BladeMaster knifemaking course with the bonus 440C stainless steel knife blanks, the forge plans and the "Spike Knife" course bonuses all for just $47. Click the orange button below to be sent to our "One Minute" simple 2048 bit encrypted secure order form. I know that I will recieve "Instant Access" right now to the video trainings and that my knife blanks will be EXPRESS shipped to me by UPS or FedEx. Click the orange button NOW!

Obviously, by giving you the knife blanks, my forge plans and two entire courses for just $47 I’m really not making any money here. So why am I doing it? Because I want to have 500 successful students go through the course before I take it to the mass market.

In short, I want you guys to help me make the course perfect. I’ll be asking your opinions, answering your questions, and expanding the course in real time.
