In my country people have fought many wars for “freedom of speech” you should try it one day…..also you should read between the lines, most of thr times when a dealer post a picture of a knife on a forum it is to attract potential buyers or to self promote their knives for a profit maybe the “real class” comment should be directed at the person who posted picture, leaving the forums to the true collectors

Mike, you're going from bad to worst. I live in one of the most tolerant countries in the world (gay marriage anyone??) so don't lecture me on human rights. But enough of that...if you think that Dan Favano (or Dave Ellis or Jim Cooper or any of the makers who post here for that matter) are only here to serve their business you are wholly mistaken. Just check their threads!!! If you like to discuss this any further please take it offline...you can reach me through an email or PM.

Freedom of speech doesn't mean you have a right to say anything without being challenged for it.
 
Mike: Glass half empty today? That said, he nailed me.

My Sense of Purpose is simple: Post up delicious images of knives which help promote sales of the same.

Who wins? Everyone. Makers, Dealers, Collectors, even.... GASP!....Photographers.

It's a trap! ;)

Unbelievable, that such beauty can create such controversy...

I guess it shows that we all are passionate about knives!

And what's wrong with makers & dealers & photographers trying to attract customers... hell, if they didn't post their work/stuff/pics, how would we know it existed!??!

Like Coop said... Every one wins!

Kind regards,

Jos
 
Well said jos.

I myself look at simple utility knives or tactical knives as art knives. Heck, any knife made by hand is an art knife to me. I just dont understand why folks cant just respect it?
 
A really like this knife, I know the Emmanuel's work, is the perfectible perfection. The engraving is subjective, I like Steduto's engraving. Ciao Tore
