Probably why we left there 400 years ago. That and my branch being Huguenots.

if 2000 people are all making knives, then on average, each one must make 175 knives a day, or 22 per hour. They do not all make knives, but there is such a thing as machinery to make knives.

Still, 350,000 knives a day would be just short of 94 million knives a year.
