It sounds like the Kang's are still making off like bandits ( coatings business supporting a thriving industry, e.g. O&G).

If they were able to "steal the show" at ASHM, what's really going on? It sounds like LQMT is trying to secure funding for some basic projects, $100k short or something like that for Vmatter knives.

Steipp better have some good ones in the works if Vmatter is all that is really going on and they still need $100k to finish out their project (according to the recent Vmatter commercial).

Consider this when cutting up vegetables. If a knife isn't tooooo sharp, you can hold a tomato with finger tips, slice it or chop it into smaller pieces, while holding it, over a pan or bowl, without the extra step of using a cutting board, and without cutting yourself ( if not a Vmatter knife), thereby saving steps:

1) having to use a cutting board and having juice run all over
2) having to clean the cutting board and wherever the juice ran
3) use of bandaids because the duller knife is less likely to cut your finger if you slip

Either way, the cook can wear surgical gloves, but with Vmatter knives there is a greater chance of cutting through them.
