Finished my 100th custom knife blade yesterday and it hit me

I was cleaning up the shop and counted all the blades I've made since I started my book. It was exactly 100. The first one was a mess, a little skinner I made in my garage two years ago. This last one was a chef's knife for a local restaurant. It felt totally different in my hands, like I finally knew what I was doing. Anyone else get that feeling when you hit a big number you didn't see coming?

Hitting 500 sales felt unreal, like I finally leveled up my skills.

That's a solid number to hit. Makes me wonder how many of those buyers came back for more than one thing. Repeat customers are the real proof you're doing something right.
