There was a post in another thread today about my interactions with Kai Corp on this forum. The gentleman stated that:
Anyone who cares to take a look at my past post history concerning Kai Corp would see that the majority of my posts are either glaringly good, or neutral. I have very few posts in comparison which are negative in any way. top of that, even smaller of a % even mention ELMAX in any capacity. If you don't believe me then I encourage you to browse through ALL of my interactions in this forum. Sure, I've made my fair share of posts that aren't positive, but to say I have an axe to grind is ridiculous. I've encouraged people to buy ZT knives for the past 3 years, and I've many NUMEROUS positive reviews of ZT knives.
The reason I will no longer interact in this forum is because people only tend to remember negative posts. I am labeled as being fueled by drama because I make some negative posts. I encourage you to watch this video in its entirety to hear why I think that is. Point blank, the masses ONLY remember that bad - and almost seem to try to forget the good.

My experiences with ZTs ELMAX are not in the minority. Many people have exhibited the exact same behavior ON VIDEO. Again, I repeat, ON VIDEO. Do they have an agenda as well? Surely 4 or 5 different videos showing the exact same mode of failure isn't a coincidence... Yes, there are tons of good reports, but that's all they are - reports. Anecdotal evidence with zero factual information to back it up. If you guys ONLY want to hear the good, albeit anecdotal, reports - then by all means have at it. The warm and fuzzies are easier to handle.
I think Kai Corp has actually been really patient with me and others, and they aren't the reason I'm making this thread for the record.
If you think I have only made negative posts you are dead wrong - and you are willingly being blind to reality. I post the good, along with the bad. These forums are meant for discussion, but true discussion can't happen here. Any time anything remotely negative is brought up (or shown) the thread immediately degenerates into an emotion filled hate fest that Kai Corp has no other choice than to shut down. It's sad that it has to be that way, but it's the truth.
To wrap this up, if you disagree with me then by all means disagree - but don't tell me that my videos are somehow wrong and that your non-evidence should be taken as truth. If anyone is willing to actually USE their knife on video to show how well it performs, then I will gladly approve your video as a video response to ANY "negative" video I've made about ZT.
It seems like whenever you're around here, drama gets stirred up. Maybe it's not intentional, but the only time you have something to say about ZT, It's only about how their knives with ELMAX perform. Coincidence?

I'm not about drama, gossip, "in" crowds or band wagons. I'm about truth.
