Is Snody Crazy

No, it's more that he comes off like a total idiot. I don't think you need a PhD to make effective tools, but when someone appears to be a slow adult I start to question their ability to consistently make reliable products. I also think the whole moronic gangsta fad has a really corrosive effect on inner-city communities and it's not something I want my money to help perpetuate, whether it's sincere or not (I give Snody enough credit to assume it's tongue-in-cheek, but at some point it ceases to matter to me).

Yeah, I don't doubt they're great knives. I just wish he'd consider letting the product speak for him.

It does. And any publicity is good publicity. Even if you refuse to admit it.
These videos brought more customers to Mike. Great for him!
It doesn't matter what you say about him, any post by you is keeping this thread alive.
And I thank YOU and others from the bottom of my heart. Even without realizing it you are supporting my favorite maker.

THANK YOU!

I will have to say, it is entertaining to hear such highbrow criticism from someone whose name and avatar refer to Gary from the Howard Stern show. If you are actually Gary, my condolences. If not you have chosen a pretty lame concept to hide behind.

You have been on the forum for an entire month and are already calling a living legend knife maker an idiot. Nice start! Let us all know how that works out for you.

Yeah, I'm a huge Stern fan. Not sure what that has to do with anything, nor do I see it as a "concept to hide behind," any more than your own avatar. If you want to talk about something that actually IS a "concept to hide behind," let's start with Snody's white-boy gangsta lean.

I never said Snody was an idiot - I said he comes off like one, apparently by choice. I just don't get it. To each his own, and I certainly hope those who buy Snody's knives enjoy them - I just don't see myself joining that group.

Not going to thread jack, but as a longtime Howard listener, it's rather coincidental that you would pick the guy who is most often the but of jokes and victim of abuse on the show going back decades.

My avatar is a photo of me wearing a respirator, which is the real me every day. It is a great idea to separate ones lungs from friable carbon fiber, G10, vanadium, and all sorts of other toxins that occur when making knives.

I hope that your joining BF exposes you to the world of custom knives to the extent that you can:

1. Put your comments about a legendary maker in context despite your likely introduction to him in this very thread.
2. Someday come in contact with a Snody knife and inspect its quality, craftsmanship, and performance.
3. Stop putting artists in your little box of how they should behave, and judge them on their work product.
4. Develop a rudimentary sense of irony. You idolize a guy who flipped the script on the whole concept of talk radio by being different and real, and now you are shitting on a guy who has done the same to the knife world by being different and real.

At any rate, thanks for your comments. Keep 'em coming. Your support of Snody knives, I am sure, is much appreciated.

Stay up. :D
 
I think I'll start bumping this thread weekly just to annoy GronK. :p
 
i do not think it matters how he acts. In his videos he sums up all the important things with a very few words. American made custom high quality knives at an affordable price. snody keep up the great work and thanks for the low prices and on keeping every thing built in the good old usa.

You got a real bent idea of what annoys GronK. GronK is just having fun. GronK's fun stops when this thread drifts to the second page and he has to wait for one of the minions to bump it up so he can snipe at it without raising it more than a few spaces. If you want to annoy GronK just let this thread drift to the third page so GronK has to bump it back to the front just to say something witty.
 
Just got my second snody custom in, A BG-42 Mini Cleaver. Wrapped with red rayskin and leather, And I must say, Amazing work. I've also got a menace and they are both beyond my expectations. Beautiful knives from an insanely talented maker.
