Hello all,
I realize this is only perhaps my third post, but given some of the posts in this forum recently, I felt that posting this could potentially be helpful to others experiencing a similar dilemma. I recently made the decision to add another high end folder to my collection (high end for me is a blade $300+). After becoming fairly enamoured with many of Mr. Ralph's designs, I was leaning heavily toward either a 4 or 5.5" Madd Maxx. Decided to, as always, do my additional research on bladeforums.com. After seeing the mountains of controversy swirling around HTM (http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...th-Ti-Framelock-and-CF-G-10-PICS-INPUT-NEEDED)
I had firmly decided that purchasing from this company would be foolish.
Thankfully, I continued to browse the forum before purchasing something different. There are MULTIPLE posts in which Mr. Ralph very clearly acknowledges a brief period of QC issues, and makes direct offers to buyers to repair the issues.

QC issues are inevitable, it is how they are handled that ultimately matters. My faith is firmly restored in HTM's efforts to deliver quality, and I am super stoked to make this year's Xmas present a Madd Maxx. My hope is that anyone else who might have been appreciative of Mr. Ralph's designs, only to be turned off by some of the negative "press" reads this.
