“If I had eight hours to chop down a tree, I’d spend six hours sharpening my axe” – Abraham Lincoln Ein Spaziergänger geht durch einen Wald und begegnet einem Waldarbeiter, der hastig und mühselig damit beschäftigt ist, einen bereits gefällten Baumstamm in kleinere Teile zu zers¨sgen. Der Spaziergänger tritt näher heran, um zu sehen, warum der Holzfäller sich so abmüht, und sagt dann: “Entschuldigen Sie, aber mir ist da etwas aufgefallen: Ihre Säge ist ja total stumpf! Wollen Sie sie nicht einmal schärfen?” Darauf stöhnt der Waldarbeiter erschöpft auf: “Dafür habe ich keine Zeit - ich muß sägen!” A stroller walks through a forest and meets a woodsman who is hasty and laboriously busy sawing a felled tree trunk into smaller parts. The stroller comes closer to see why the lumberjack toils so, and then says: “Excuse me, but it occurs to me that your saw’s totally blunt. Won’t you sharpen it at least once?”

Then the forest worker groans, exhausted: “I don’t have time - I must cut!” – Various, including Prof. Lothar J. Seiwert ([01], Seite 37), Mary Walton: The Deming Management Method; (Management Books 2000 Ltd) This book is dedicated to all of those who have been developing better sharpening tools and methods in hopes that those who are doing the actual cutting will one day use them.
