If, by "over there" you mean British Blades .... there have been no efforts to censor anything to do with Allan Blade. Phil, known there as "Fullplate", known here as "pmel018" posted something about this thread. One of the moderators moved it for discussion and I reinstated the post after that discussion. The post was not reinstated because Phil raised a fuss.
If people choose to order knives from Allan Blade that is their business. Some people choose to give him the benefit of the doubt, some don't. Everyone is free to come over here and read this saga if they so choose.
