can someone explain to me why there is a maxpedition boycott?

Hi Chris Crowley-

My thoughts were more towards the SMF folder, but thanks for thinking of me! You shouldn't have too much difficulty selling yours.

Amazing how a simple question is posed directly to another poster, who is trying to turn a very understandable post into dog sh*t, yet is completely “misread, not comprehended and misconstrued” by you. :D

Jesus H.

Let’s recap so to see if BrandonLeeMcKinley or his girlfriend borebush can hump the football some more. . . . .


Cliffy, since you’re acting at my seeing eye dog. . . . maybe you’d like to explain what he meant how purchasing a Strider knife is associated with the judgment of a person.

Keep using those fancy words and "phrasiology" so you can further distance yourself from any and all likeness to me.

Likeness to you? BAWAHAHAHAHAHAHA I thank God, that I’m not a mental midget.

Dude - you want an SnG? I'll sell you mine. I've been looking at the new version with the Hinderer stabilizer... you buy mine, I'll use that to buy myself the new one. Everyone's happy.

You sell it to him before me and I WILL hunt you down and kill you.

And I mean that in the kindest of ways.

Hi RWS-

You're 100% correct on your SPAM assessment. It started out as pretty funny and all the first six or seven times...

GigOne..... And who is calling the kettle black here????
Grow up old man!! As for calling Borebrush my girl friend that was really unnecessary. I know I don't know many people here but when I called somebody a "commie" I was brought to task for it. I can only hope there is some sorta equality here.

They are trying to make this even funnier than it already is.... that is all! :D
 
Just so you people can see who your dealing with, here's a picture of me taken about three weeks ago.

EDITED TO ADD:
This is my last post in this thread. Adios, my fellow, and female type, knife collectors!

Cut Mick some slack , many of us are probably undetected felons . From where I sit he has done pretty good . Lets see , paid his debt.,founded a profitable small business , created employment that sustains others . No one is more dubious about , or suspicous of ex felons than LEO's . Mick has LEO friends in dozens ,if not in the hundreds . The Ranger association is happy with his bona fides , they are the dudes who should know . I,m guessing he changed his name for a good reason , he's a different dude .

BTW , if his escapade had happend here in Canada , he would have been pardoned five years ago , and rightly so .

Let's not get into the subject of the other "team " .

I was initially sceptical about his product , I eventually opened my mind and tried one . I discovered a subtle , well thought out design , built to pry open the hatches of T-34 tanks . The product is also among the best backed in the industry , with what is probably an excessivley liberal warranty .

Just my .02 ,

Chris,

:D I can feel the love.

HIM, I sell it to. YOU, I give it to. Just say the word.
 
Ok, here's my take (not that anyone cares). I've never met most of the parties involved here. I have, however, met Mick. I talked to him at Blade this year, and he seemed like a genuinely nice guy. He took time to talk to me, as well as just about everyone else around me. I don't know much about Kevin McClung. I've read some of the things he's had to say over the years, and was thuroughly unimpressed. He seems like an egomaniac. As for Tim Tang.....I've delt with him in the past, and have had nothing but good luck. I don't know how or why he got involved in all of this, but if he did spread the afformentioned info, shame on him. I own products from all of the involved parties. I carry multiple knives every day. I'm a knifemaker, so I always carry one of my own blades. I don't make folders (yet), however, so that void has to (for the moment at least) be filled by another maker. You know what knife finds it's way into my pocket, day in, and day out? An SnG. You know why? Because it is one hell of a knife. I didn't know anything about Mick's past until this little debacle. Did it change my mind about Strider knives? Nope. Did it change my mind about Mick? Not really. He's still the same guy I met in Atlanta this year. He's still the same guy who makes the knife in my pocket. I realize that people do dumb things.........God knows I have. It's what you do afterwards that really matters. From what I can see, Mick has made something of himself. He's been a positive influence on people. You can't argue that. I only hope that people realize that this whole thing is rediculous. I'll continue to carry my SnG because it's the best all around folder I've ever owned. I'll continue to use Maxpedetion products, but I won't buy any more. At least not for the time being. As for Cold Steel and Mad Dog knives...........well..........I own one of each. Have forever. I won't get rid of those knives (they're good knives), but I won't buy any more. Not only because the owners are suspect, but, quite frankly, because the knives are outdated. If you use twenty year old technology to make a product, expect it to be surpassed by new, more innovative makers. It's that simple. I may seem like a noob here, but I've been lurking for years. I'm not much of a poster (as you can see from my post count). I do, however, know how I feel. Like I said, this whole thing is a joke. People need to relax. I think the product should speak for itself. People will vote with their wallets, and from what I've seen, Strider Knives is in no trouble whatsoever. I'm not defending anyone here, I'm just giving people my observations.

Oh yeah, not only is Mick a good guy, but so is Duane. I got to talk with him in the pit for quite a while, and he's definately one of the good guys too! :)

Thanks,

Evan
 
I guess for the most part as I have said before to another member here "Some of us are bound to disagree."

I for one am done with this. I have said my piece time and time again, more than one other person has made the same arguements or explained them further then I can. I would hope that some of you will find your way to meeting Mick. If not well like I've said before, your loss. Good luck with this strange and twisted post.
