  Veteran Entrepreneur Builds Adaptive Knife for Accessibility

  Jul 7, 202643 minS3

  Joshua Krafchick sits down with Douglas Katz, founder of Nulu Knives, to discuss his journey from West Point and the Army to corporate America, mortgage lending, and eventually entrepreneurship. Douglas shares how his military background shaped the way he thinks about autonomy, decision-making, leadership, and innovation — and why the structure of corporate America never fully fit the way he was wired. After years in lending and multiple career transitions, Douglas began building a product inspired by his own physical challenges, including arthritis, tennis elbow, and shoulder issues. That led to Nulu Knives, an adaptive kitchen knife designed to offer better control, different grip options, and a more accessible cutting experience for people who may struggle with traditional knife design. —🔹Doug's Website: https://dougkatz8.wixsite.com/douglasmkatz 🔹Free Financial Tools & Resources: https://369financial.com/financial-persona-game/ 🔹 Learn How Josh Could Help You: https://369financial.com 🔹 Book a strategy session: https://369financial.com/consultation/ — **Disclaimer:** 369 Financial is a registered investment adviser.
