Angry? Please! Yes, I have "gift" to tell what I see, and not quite in the age when saying "King is naked!" is excusable by everybody. In Russia, culture prepare you to survive and in such condition lie is not what helps everybody to survive, even it is pleasant and sweet. Like "Guys we are not surrounded by enemy and have plenty of ammunition - nothing to worry about!"... Or - "We need to check Green - I see some movement in there and we have only one Zinc left"...
Here in US everybody doing business and advertisement is big part of this business.
Now if I see that Spyderco is lowering standard handling warranty claimes - I say so because before Spyderco does not care if I disassemble knife once I did not break it (printed on every paperwork which came with box) - now warranty is void if it was disassembled even in an accurate way - like once I oil it. I guess this make Spyderco uncomfortable, but this is what it is - one policy before - another one now. And I do not tell you what to do about this - I just state warranty policy changed and not as good as it was.
If I see uneven grind - I will say so as well, this is lower then industry standards - all other knives for Spyderco as well as other manufacturers has grind perfectly centered on other knives. I see it - I state it. Sorry if you do not like it, but you may check Walker CF-ZDP189 and any other knife.
If I see that even with possible micro work hardening on H1 it is performs lower then 420HC, what can I do - I say what I see.
I am sorry if you do not like what I say, but I am not angree or anything. I actually do not care. This is my Russian culture, in survival situation if you see something wrong you have to say this, so then it may be fixed.
You seems like taking it as an attack, as demand from me to rule you business some way. Heck no! You can keep you standards the way you pleased - after all you are making money.
But again I can not say "-Everything is just perfect, nothing to worry!" this is for advertisement department.
I see lately only depressive news from Spyderco, sorry. But of course you are the boss and I am not telling you what to do.
And if I state that you are not publishing you results and so I see no value in your testing for me - are they published? No. So what is wrong with what I just sad? There is very little information available and what I have is almost all what everybody have.
I am very hopeful on what Ankerson doing. I hope he will listen to my suggestion, because I am doing this for over 5 years and already went through what he is going through right now.
Thanks, Vassili.
