Who likes the idea of everyone interested pitching in a little buying a dork ops and then having cliff stamp test it to failure. Or maybe send it into the strider guys and leting them have some fun with it. Im sure that Mick would love that.
 
Why???:confused: They have been tested. Brownie says they're great, and the rest of the world thought otherwise. I see no point in doing it again.
 
I am NOT spending one $.01 of MY money on one of those. I don't crae WHO likes them; I don't. I am not interested in them in the slightest.
 
One more time ... the problem with Dark Ops knives has never been the quality of the knives themselves. For a while, the problem was, there simply were no knives. Then there were, but few of us here chose to buy them. Why?

Because the world is full of big, tough knives that can take abuse. Even the Extrema Ratio knives that D.O. ripped off to begin with. Or knives like Ontario and Bark River that don't cost nearly as much for top performance. Or knives like Chris Reeve and Strider that do cost as much and set the standard for hard use knives.

But D.O. went one step too far with their marketing. It wasn't appealing to this community, and it wasn't appropriate for the larger world, which already sees big knives as a menace. D.O.'s marketing sent all the wrong signals.

There is too much worthwhile competition to spend money on losers.

So let me understand this, You want me to contribute money to buy a knife so someone can break it? And that person is not even me? What possible value could this have to me? or anyone for that matter?

Or maybe send it into the strider guys and leting them have some fun with it. Im sure that Mick would love that.

If Mick would love it, perhaps Mick should spend his money on it.

I'm sure if Mick gave enough of a crap about DO, he'd have the jack in his wallet to buy a few. I doubt that DO is even on his radar.

I guess that that's the point, Razor. I winced through their ads, but I'm not gonna look again. Kind of an embarrassing annoyance, but not on most knife user's radar.
 
I dont think Mick has time for testing knives. Hes probably busy sharing his Army Ranger/SOCOM stories.
 
That sounds like fun to me, FastJuice. Why don't you share your Army Ranger/SOCOM stories with us?

Theres a good reason that I dont. Just like Mickey Ray, I wasnt ever in the Rangers or SOCOM. The difference is, I dont have any fantasy stories to go along with that.

It looks like some people will take advantage of any opening to interject their agenda into a thread. What in the heck does this have to do with the original intent of this thread, other than the fact that Mick's name was mentioned?

Then you have nothing to say worth listening to. Did Mick ever tell you his war stories? No? Then you're making it all up, you're passing on hearsay, you .. are .. a .. troll.

One more to Ignore.
