A lot of my blades are made by burning in the tang. Some people say this makes a weaker hold but in 23 years ive never had one fail. With everything there is a right way and a wrong way to do things and big shock most people do it the wrong way.

Milton Friedman had a provocative take on fixing government: forget about electing saints. The problem isn't bad politicians—it's bad incentives. Put anyone in office, and they'll respond to the same pressures, the same drives, the same structural defects in our political system. The real solution? Make doing the right thing politically profitable. When the system rewards good policy, you don't need good people. You just need people responding to the right incentives.

What exactly are you trying to convey when you say these things ? Why do you feel that you have the right to put down a place that people had no choice but to call home ? What is so wrong with the things that people did for survival? It’s so pointless and divisive.

Thomas Sowell cites Milton Friedman in 2026 interview “Milton Friedman used to say that people call a capitalist society a profit society—it’s a profit-and-loss society. The losses are just as important as the profits, because the losses force people to stop doing things that are not working.” “Only those who are doing things that can be self-supporting can continue.”
