Ever find a gem on BUDK?

I know BUDK is not a favorite amongst most knife people. I was just wondering if anyone has found a gem or a good reliable folder, fixed blade, backpack, or whatever you have on their site?
If you have. Please share your thoughts. And or photos.
 
Nope. I also never found a gold nugget in a toilet.
Well gee whiz. Thanks for the sarcastic reply to a post you obviously should have scrolled past since it is below your standards. What is wrong with a simple No instead of having to add sarcastic comments? Here, Lemme show you how Ignore works for your future reference. You mistaken me for someone who cares. Bye.
 
I guess you believe YOU are the only one allowed to be opinionated.
Get lost. I was not opinionated nor did I do anything to you to deserve the crappy response you gave me over a simple question. You are the one who got all sarcastic over a post that did not even warrant that response.
Unfortunately I can't say what is really on my mind since the mods will get on me with infraction points.

I don't know honestly. I don't mess around with cheap stuff anymore, especially fixed blades. I don't need something snapping off and causing injury. It's not worth it.
Agreed. I was just pondering on this idea. And wondering if anyone found a gem hidden in a cheap knife outlet source such as Bud K?
I do however like some of their military and camping gear.
 
Well, BudK offers this:

A serious ninja could go to battle with such a fine weapon.

BudK is a joke. The reputable branded knives they sell are typically at MSRP+, and their other stuff is crap.

And yeah. That’s my opinion. We all have one of those.

I scored this years ago from Bud K. Condor compact dagger, 1075, full tang, and micarta slabs. It was on clearance for $15 shipped back then. Here's a link from KC, it retailed for $50-$70 iirc.

Fine opinion to have. There is a difference between having an opinion and being a total douche and talking crude to other members without justification.
I merely asked a question. And I don't apologize for that. That is my opinion. And a fact. If you feel need to take this to the next level like the first idiot did without any valid reasoning to do so. Or have an issue with my username. Feel free to put me on ignore. Or I will do it for you. Your call sir.
I would prefer us to get along and I have no problem with your post or opinion. And I enjoy your honesty. Minus the wise crack at my username. I never said I liked BUDK nor bought anything from them. I merely asked if anyone has ever found a hidden gem in their products.

Whoa. I really like that. I am pleasantly surprised to see such a nice find for $15. The handle in particular looks well suited for that dagger. Thanks for showing this and not jumping on my case for asking a question.
Now that is a gem.
 
I have purchased some toob lights from them. Those were as advertised. I don't know about gems but they do work.
I was scrolling on their page and yes most of their stuff is junk. But I am shocked to see that they are selling a few EOTECH firearm scopes which can run over $1000 and some decent military surplus / survival food / Gun stocks. That was what prompted me to ask this very question.

Hello,

I maybe would try to not take things too personally, as some of the posters on BF are great people with a sarcastic funny streak to them.

Also, never heard of BudK...who are they?
 
I've bought these giant folders for my younger cousins in the past...they loved them :D

But for me, I've actually picked this thing up to keep by the nightstand...no complaints.

Although I have had my eye on this sweet looking thing for walks around the neighborhood
