Apology to Anne and Chris Reeve

[The General]

If there is enough time could you please not bother sending the test knife. I have been labelled a cheat and a person that used my opportunity to get a free Talonite knife to "bludgeon" respectable people like you and Chris. That was never ever my intent. However as much as it pains me to say this, I think you not sending a knife my way is for the best, even though those saying these things are wrong. Even though it would only be on loan and I would send it back, my name has been turned to mud. I again would like to thank you for your kindness and respect. If you considered that I was trying to get a free knife, please tell me that. If that is the case I am very very sorry. If you have no idea what I am talking about, look at the Busse forum and it is label Talonite v Busse BM. Thank you Anne.

W.A.

While these sentiments might be best expressed in a private email to the Reeves, a public acknowledgement probably should have been posted in the Reeves' forum. Cheers.

The General, I see that you say you are leaving, or will not be posting again in the Busse forum thread that has become so 'passionate'. That is your decision. But, I will not allow arguements from one forum to spill over here into the general (everyone's forum, not yours) forum.

I am sorry you are having so much trouble here at BFC recently. Please slow down a little and try to understand why your posts have aroused such animosity, and consider changing your posting style. Sometimes NOT responding to folks anger and accusations is the best course of action.

Since this post is addressed to the Reeve's, I am locking it here and sending it there. Have a good day
