Timing and commercial proof of concept. Remember strategical does not preclude tactical. A strategy will never succeed if it cannot be tactically executed.

By the time of the Engel Show, the LQMT knife will be "commercial" and out in the market. This is the only product that will be a benchmark, whether tactical or strategic.

I am not saying that the timing of the two shows is no coincidence. They are different agendas, audiences and dates have been established for each show for years. (Blade show is every year; Engel show is every 3 years - this is well established)

What I am saying, is that the blade is a cutting instrument made in one mold with two cavities.

This very same possibility exists for hemostats, surgical clamps, scissors, knives, etc. So, along with, as you suggest, medical samples, nothing beats showing a product which has already gone commercial, works, and is accepted in the market place.

If not, why even bother with the MA Knife? It hasn't and won't sell enough to pay its own way.

But it does show: PROOF OF CONCEPT and COMMERCIALIZATION.

So since the timing of the two shows exists, why not use it to the Company's advantage?

It's not like Liquidmetal has not already squandered too many "missed opportunities", is it?
