need good name for knife store.
I need a name for a knife shop, in a mall. It took alot of work to get them to let me in, so I can't call it anything like OJ's, WMD, weapons of mass destruction. stabbys, basicly no use of anything that sounds like weapon
or even blade,
I can't use the name knives and more it has already been taken.
so I need a better name. It will be selling knives, good quality like benchmade, and cold steel, to complete crap, like those double turbo wicked satan looking knives.
it will also sell cutlery like carbon kitchen knife sets, samuri swords, good kind like cold steel and paul chin, and crappy kind like the 20 dollar 3 display ones.
also will sell self defense item's like stun guns, paper spray, nunchucks, kobitons, butterfly knives, pen knives, ect ect. some LED flashlights from smith and wesson. just stuff like that.
I need a name thats easy to remember, not long and complicated.
and explains pretty much that the store sells knives, and other stuff as well.
I have thought of knives and accessorys, or all about knives, but it just seems there has to be somthing better.
anyone have any ideas???

"Gecko's" 
Will you carry any blades (are there even any?) that use any form of Tungsten?
Where will this store be?

It seems like it would be a great idea to make them like that. While I read that Tungsten is extremely difficult to work with, it is extremely heavy and extremely hard. There's a company that makes wedding bands with it that are guaranteed to never ever be scratched.84fierotrevor wrote:Starlite528 wrote:"Gecko's"

if it's doable, and provides a supprior knife, and no one does it, you might be onto somthing there, You make em, and I will sell em for you. custom gecko knives.
you can make 5 diffrent types with 5 diffrent blades, each handle being a diffrent color and call them
the green gecko "non serrated regular point "
the blue gecko "serrated tanto point"
the black gecko "serrated, flash point, black teflon coated blade"
ect. ect.
then they can go on display with a small poster above them that says, its strong point. Like:
can stand tempature and fire up to 2000 degree's.
handle strong enough to stab into wall and do pull ups with someone up to 300 pounds without snapping.
teflon coated option "black gecko only" will not rust.
ect. ect.

There's a problem though; I can't afford to start making knives, nor do I have any clue how. The full extent of my metalworking powers is MIG welding, done only once, and using a metal lathe, also done only once while in high school.84fierotrevor wrote: if it's doable, and provides a supprior knife, and no one does it, you might be onto somthing there, You make em, and I will sell em for you. custom gecko knives.

I can't even sharpen a knife very well, but I think I found a way that works best for me. A fine mill file.

Unfortunately, "We Be Knives" is taken - pier 39, San Francisco. Complete with sign that says "We Be Closed" after hours... How bout something basic like "Cutting Edge" or something? Sounds like it'd fit in at the mall great.
Tungsten would make a very very very hard, brittle blade. You could probably make an incredibly sharp edge, but one ding against something the wrong way and it'll be ruined. A good alternative is the Boker ceramic blade knives - their folders have a titanium handle, and a ceramic composite blade - ultra sharp for a loong time, but it'll chip if you abuse it too. But it is available. Their kitchen knives are cool too, also ceramic.
Now what's cool is that somebody made a ceramic blade knife, with a composite handle - no metal whatsoever. Unless you were law enforcement, you had to order the one with a steel strip cast into the handle... See if you can find those?

if the no steel knife is made by boker I can get it, I order from boker, but it must be somthing new, as I hav't seen it in older cataologs, I have not had a knife store for the last 3 years, so sorta been out of the knife game.
we had man law enforcment only knives, such as automatics.
