One Swiss Knife in the exact shape of a life.
Your Life. Not their business.
Answer seven short questions in one sitting and the Forge drafts a knife from your life —
you sharpen it by hand and take it home as one file that's yours forever.
Your portrait in private, digital tools.
One file, one purchase, no account, no subscription.
No cloud. No phone-home. No nonsense.

Blades, Tools, and one honest file.
Three things to know before you step into the Forge.
9 Blades
Interconnected suites that share one memory. Invoice a client in the Freelancer's Pond and they're already known to the Ledger next door. Weight 3 or 4 apiece.
168 Tools
Single implements, weight 1. Trackers keep — a hive log, a mileage log, a mood diary. Reckoners compute, don't store — VAT, dosage, tip. Small, sharp, honest. 9 Blades and 168 Tools — 177 shapes of a life.
One file
No install, no account, no cloud. E-mail it to yourself. Drop it on a USB stick. Open it on any device, any browser, any decade. It's yours.
Don't take our word for it.
This is a Blade — three tabs sharing one memory, running right here. Try this: on the Today tab, tick 'Fix the heron paragraph'. Then open the Goals tab and watch the number move. That's what interconnected means.
It also makes an excellent present.
Forge a knife for someone — their name struck into the steel, their life shaped into the blades, and your words waiting on the first opening. A gift that's actually theirs, not a subscription in a bow. The card reads exactly what you write; the button reads Open the Swiss Knife in the shape of your Life.
Nothing is final. When the shape of your life changes, bring your Knife back and reforge it — add, remove, resize. Within your weight, reforging is free — forever. You only ever pay if your knife outgrows its tier, and then only the difference. Knife follows Life, never the other way around.
You pay once. You get one HTML file, forged to your answers. It runs in your browser, offline, on whatever machine you point at it — today, next year, ten years from now. No account, no login, no server calling home. The file is yours; it doesn't expire, and neither does your right to open it.
If it isn't for you, tell us within thirty days, money back. One e-mail — no forms, no hoops. And the file stays yours either way: we couldn't reach into your computer to take it back if we wanted to. That's rather the point.
