I have for sale a 7" Combat Patrol Bowie by Allen Blade. This knife is made from 5160 and has a beautiful temper line from where Allen differentially heat treated the blade. It has never cut anything but air and is blemished only from the kydex sheath. The sheath has two different loops for different carry styles. Also, there are two marks in the blade coating on the left side which have been there since I received the knife from Allen. They appear to be from something under the coating. Allen will re-finish the knife in his lacquer coating for free if you couldn't stand the marks. All you would have to pay is the shipping. I have no idea what the current price on one of these is, but it's really a moot point, since Allen can't fill the orders he already has, let alone new ones. I'm asking $150 plus shipping, and that is less than I paid. No trades and CONUS sales only. Thanks for looking.

I REMEMBER E MAILING YOU ABOUT THIS KNIFE SAYING I WOULD TAKE IT AT 160.00 YOU TOLD ME YOU WERENT GOING TO SELL IT AND IT WAS MINE IF YOU DID HMMMMMMM!!!!! NOW I SEE YOU POSTED IT AND SOLD IT !!! BAD JUJU !!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOT COOL NOR WHAT A GENT DOES E MAIL ME AND LET ME KNOW HOW YOU WOULD LIKE TO FIX THIS JAXURMAN
 
Jack, I'm sorry that I failed to recall our correspondence from several months ago, when I placed this knife for sale. I intended you no malice. In fact, had I remembered, I would have made more money by selling the knife to you. It wouldn't make much sense to deliberately jerk you around so that I could make less money on the sale.
To make up for my lapse in memory, I want to send you a Kurt Meerdink Phase III fighter, at no cost. Just let me know where to ship.
Charlie


No I'm not. Greg is right. Not remembering any correspondence with Jack is no reason to give him a $250 knife. If I had caused him any real hurt, it would be different, but just losing a buy on a knife doesn't warrant my previous response. And, so far, he hasn't been able to produce the all important correspondence, and I don't have a record of it. Sorry, Jack!!
 
Charlie is a good man, who has been here a long time. I have always thought him to be even handed and a gentleman. Perhaps a private email to him would have been more appropriate than this public assertion regarding his character. Not sure a lapse in memory justifies a free knife but I guess you are seeing the real Charlie. Me, I would have told you to......never minde

Charlie I am going to send you some free Ginko Biloba for your memory....:D
 
he did it again !!!!!!!!!!! he renigned AGAIN!!!! THE MANS WORD AINT WORTH SQUAT !!!! come on now guys my reputation on this forum for the short period of time ive been on is FLAWLESS!!!! THIS GUY HAS LIED LIED LIED!!!ALL I CAN SAY IS buyer beware when dealing with him he offered the free knife cause he knows he was wrong period!!!!i did not ask him for it he made the offer i graciously accepted he responds by calling me foul names wow !!!!!!!!! my reputation speaks for itself this guy i do not know as an individual but his word is no good!!!!so as a favor to all on blade forum BE CAREFUL IN DEALING WITH HIM !!!!!!! THANKS JACK AKA JAXURMAN !!!!
 
Folks, this is a bull$hit complaint. There is no way that Charlie should have to pay this guy off with a knife. Fact is, that Charlie thinks Mr. "Gimme" here may have confused him with someone else who was previously selling this type of knife and Charlie, not recalling any prior conversation regarding this knife just asked him to produce the email where they discussed the Blade bowie. That is it....

The bottom line Mr. Jaxuraman is that even if Charlie previously decided to keep the knife he is under absolutely no obligation to sell you squat. This is America, he can sell to whomever he wants. You didn't lose out on anything here. No lost money, no lost knife, nothing. To me your motivation seems to get as many knives as possible....so much so that the owner of this site thought you were a dealer. You move knives so fast here on this forum is it possible you have mixed things up here? I don't care if your prior deals over the last paultry two months here have been flawless, you have no right to expect a free knife from a guy who didn't do a thing to you.

Have you thought for a second why he is selling the knife? Can you consider for a moment that he may be have financial troubles? Did you ever consider that maybe his child has medical expenses? No. You're just PO'd you didn't get a free knife. You seem to be doing quite well so why don't you enjoy what you have. I'm sorry to say your actions to me are nothing less than selfish.

Charlie's honor isn't at stake, yours is.
 
you seem to be sticking your nose DEEP in something between me and the "fatboy" this isnt about me getting a free anything its about a mans word being NO GOOD !!!! 2X your buddy charley did not keep his word thats the deal plain and simple if you plan on going to the store anytime soon ,get yourself a can of buisiness and stay out of mine !!!! how large my collection is or how many knives i sell again is not your biz!!!! DONT HATE-PARTICIPATE !!!!!!! i cannot worry about people the bills or problems they have i take care of a dying father every day this is my escape and i thank spark for it every day it makes me feel a bit better about things till people like charlie pull crap like he did and losers like you try to defend his actions i dont need ANYTHING for free -he made the offer i never asked hmmmmm a little guilt there -i say a whole lot !!!! my reputation on this forum says it all thanks jack aka jaxurman
 
Just wanted to throw in my quarters worth. . .

No harm no foul on HDCharlies part. So what if a transaction didn't go through several months ago. Previous e-mails and deals like that can easily slip between the cracks ! Besides. . .HDCharlies posted the thread @ 08-20-2001 02:40 PM and posted the knife as sold @ 08-22-2001 06:20 PM. Hmmmm ~ little over 2 days. . . Just me thinkin' ~ lookin' like there was ample opportunity to jump into the "I'll buy that baby fray."

And I agree with Kodiak PA. . . jaxurman absolutely and positively doesn't deserve a "freebe" over this ! (A freebe. . . :rolleyes: give me a friggin' break !)

I definitely feel that the name calling/insinuations, on your part jaxurman, is totally uncalled for and unbecoming of a knife knut !

Plez. . .someone send me a free knife for posting in this thread. ;)

*Note: Edited to correct a minor typo.
 
Ok, any additional comments need to go to the good, bad, and the ugly. Personally, I think this one should end right now.
 
I agree with Big Tex, Jaxurman be civil and try to work things out privately. I think you are out of line getting personal and slamming Greg. If you read the post Charlie apologized. You were not out any money or goods. Move on with life.

Not good, not good at all. This is not what it's all about.
I hate to stick my dam nose in but I just don't understand this.

My thoughts were not nice so I did not write them. JAX calm down. It is only a knife,there will be more. This is not the S & P pit in Chicago where you stand on a man laying on the floor with a heart attack so you can see better. Remember everyone is reading these pages not just you and Charlie.
 
Well, for starters, KNOCK IT OFF! If you guys want a pissing-contest, PLEASE do it via PRIVATE E-mail.:mad:.

And for now, this mess is going to "The Good, The Bad, The UGLY" Forum.:(.
 
No way Charlie owes you anything except that apology he already gave you and that's IF he was the one who you talked to before which is suspect since you dont have the email.
This is none of my business until you attacked my good friend Greg and attacked his manhood asking if they were boyfriends??? You say you're new around here? Weren't you here before and are only back a short while under this new name Jaxurman? Would you like to tell us where you were when you were gone? Could that have anything to do with why you think of men having boyfriends???Greg is a gentleman of the highest caliber and his reputation is sterling! Why is it that built into all your deals is an agreement that people have to give you good feedback at GB&U? Did you have problems in the past? C'mon, speak up, don't be shy now!
BTW, you may have convinced Spark, though I'd bet he's still undecided, but make no mistake, you ARE a dealer, and you know it.

You have got to be kidding me. I only know Charlie by reputation on these forums, and it has always been quite good. I have chatted with Greg several times and have dealt with him a time or 2 and would trust him 100 percent. If Greg (kodiak) endorses Charlie, thats good enough for me.

To come in here squawking that he should have notified you of a knife for sale based on some supposed conversation months ago, you're nuts. Well, add another to the list of people I wont deal with (Jaxurman).

BTW Charlie, I liked that knife and toyed with the idea of making an offer. I never did, but ya didnt give me weeks to make up my mind, so please send me the meerdink to make me feel better :D Just kidding..lol.
 
I would just add charlie has over a couple of years here been nothing but honest with me and quite trusting I might add sending the monies for several knives from me before anyone else and even paying additional funds for shipping after knives were sent.... Thanx-HDCharlie :D
 
I'd like to remind everyone this website has a rule against personal attacks ... surely we can find some better way to express our thoughts than calling each other names?

-Cougar :{)
 
I'de just like to point out that lifter4Him is correct. The reason Jaxurman has been on the boards so much, is that positive feedback is made part of the transaction. This is not just a rumor, and probably everyone who has delt with him, will willingly confirm this fact.
