Greetings folks, I am remodeling my custom knife showroom to make it into a full time retail outlet and will be purchasing Spyderco from a local distributor. The question becomes "with a limited budget to spend initially what models would you suggest?" I can restock the same day so multiples of the same item are not in the plan until traffic builds up.

Hi George, welcome to the Spyderco forum.

I'm assuming that you have our 2004 catalog? They were sent to distributors a month or so ago.

Spyderco makes more than 40 models of knives with variations of each model.

Some are "bread & butter" models, some are more exotic, but hard to find.

How many models / variations were you planning on stocking?

Unfortunately my distributor has not recieved his new catalog and pricing yet and that is showing planning down a bit.

Could we please take this off line? I am not comfortable discussing business plans in an open forum.

My email is sales@tichbourneknives.com

Thanks
