Dang, spent too much on this Strider

Ha Ha - that's funny. Yes it was harsh. But, I have always been harsh of Strider and Busse on these forums - and it was the end of the day.

We all know what a finely crafted knife looks like and for the money some of these pieces command, one could purchase a little of this craftmanship.

I have a few customs that show the fine craftsmanship you speak of, customs from some of the world's best makers, and yet, I still do see a lot I like and admire about the Striders, the Emperor's clothes might have a few stains, Cosmoline probably, but are very much on.

Striders are not pretty, refined piece of art, they are not jewel-like, nor do they remind one of a fine Swiss watch as some custom knives can, they are designed to look and feel like heavy duty tools, and they are just that and there is some value in this.
