Reason for my post: Last Saturday @Packerrat chose not to do business with me on his 4V Light Chopper. He was well within his rights to do so and I am not upset at him whatsoever. I am trying to alleviate what he said his concerns were and what I can only assume some of your concerns would be If you were to deal with me as well.
I’ll start by saying that I understand that this is probably not the right place for this thread, however, you the people of the CPK subforum are really the only ones I need to read this. If @Nathan the Machinist or @Lorien decide to take this down I will understand and not complain.
My name is Jeremy. I am from South Mississippi and I am a high school baseball coach and recently on Sep 8th I became a father for the first time at the age of 39. As someone who teaches and coaches people’s kids I tend to rarely (read almost never) post on anything. I have twitter, facebook, and I am a member on this forum for the past couple of years. I love reading up on many of your posts as I do the baseball writers and coaches I follow on twitter. From JustinFournier and all his writing at the beginning of this subforum to @Lorien and the pictures and writings he posts. betzner and his exquisite knives he collects and Nathans thoroughness in his explanations for why he does exactly what he does with each of his knives. I often like many of your posts, but my only posts are usually in the form of I’ll take it or some derivative. I haven’t traded any knives because I honestly don’t own any I want to trade. I have a few of my early purchases from Busse before I really knew what I liked that I might get rid of someday, and I hope to have a few extra CPK knives to help trade for some of the harder to get of Nathans offerings like the aforementioned 4vLC, Heavy Chopper, Behemoth Chopper or Skinner. I know many of you dislike eBay and that is fine but my name on there is rookies1 and I have perfect feedback mostly from buying as well. I want to stress that If I say I will buy something I do. And I am trying to find the people that I have purchased from on here and have them give me feedback for my purchases as well (this was suggested to me by Packerrat).
I came to enjoy knives after attending Blade Show 2015 with my cousin. Soon after that I found Blade Forums while visiting the Busse website. While here I stumbled across a thread by Nathan the Machinist in late December early January where he was testing a lightweight chopper. This intrigued me, because up until this point I was only semi-familiar with Busseand their heavyish choppers. Chopping outside behind my home is something I do as a stress reliever during the season or to just spend time outside. After several tries I was able to land one of Nathans D3V LC in the spring of 2016. Once I was able feel and use it I was hooked and wanted to try more of Nathans knives. My cousin also loved it, and since he has an allergy to technology he asked me to try and get him one for his swat rig. When this process took too long for him, because Nathan’s popularity began to grow and my keyboarding skills did not, I gave him mine and continued to try and replace it. When Nathan offered the preorder for the LC I was ecstatic because I knew this was probably the only way I would be able to purchase directly from Nathan. Things rolled on along and at the 2016 Blade Show I was able to pick up a Shiv for my cousin and when I did I knew immediately I wanted one also. Most all of you know how hard these are to come by, and when I found someone willing to part with theirs I snapped it up. This led to me to the Field Knife Preorder and then I was able to acquire a Utility Fighter to which I had to tell my cousin No because I was certain I wouldn’t be able to replace it. During the 2017 Blade Show my cousin picked me up one of Nathan 4V EDC. abbydaddy proxied for me on the D2 Nask which I am very grateful for and Love this knife its very close to LC in my opinion as the best knife. I look forward to my preordered Naskin D3V and also my EDC 2 along with any future offering my Nathan.
While I am writing I would also like to thank @Jo the Machinist for her ease in emailing back and forth on the orders as well as answering any questions that we may have.
Here is a list of the people I have purchased from. If any of you will please leave me feedback I would greatly appreciate it.
