Mantis Militia Mission BRAVO one - Post Spam for Free Knives!

LOL! Well that didn't work out exactly as planned did it?

It would appear that Mantis knives has joined the ranks of

Dork Ops
Gecko 45
The nut kicked and set on fire terrorist
That guy that doesn't believe in the awesome abilities of the smatchet

in Bladeforums lore. I'm betting that their marketing department is trying to figure out how to cut their collective wrists with their own knives. Personally I'd be considering a company rename and getting rid of the red metal on my designs...

I wonder how Mantis is doing on the other forums that they were supposed to spam... here:

The reason they are trying so hard to win a knife is that the vast majority of Mantis Militia members are under 16 - too young to legally buy knives on their own. It's obvious from the "quality" (read: lack thereof) of the shill posts here.

Can you imagine that? Using children to shill your product? Aren't there child labor laws?

As for Jared West, I've wasted enough time on this loser.

Got a reply about the round hole.IMO if the hole is there to open the blade then it is Spydercos trade mark.The BM thing may be different,we will never know,this is not different.
Going by this reply anyone could bore a tiny pin hole in the blade beside the opening hole and use it,I don't think so.
The reply
Hi there! Thanks for the inquiry. When we first came out with our Karambit, we were brand new in the industry and when our design finished, it only had one hole in it, Sal came to our booth at THE BLADE SHOW in Atlanta and explained the use of the round hole. Sal was gracious and very cool about it. So we stopped making the knife with one hole in it, so that no one would be confused about the company making the knife. Now our karambits have either two or three holes, depeding on whether it's fixed or folding. We didn't want to ruffle anyone's feathers, especially such an industry icon as Mr. Glesser. I hope that answers your question.

SO...you may find one of the rare pieces that has one hole in it, but those were only made for a very short amount of time, and though in some FILE PHOTOS online and such, you may see one hole, what you'll most likely receive from one of these online retailers is a two hole version.

THanks again for your inquiry.

Jared
 
if anybody has thought of joining their militia, ya know infiltrate them, i know it would be a massive undertaking, not to mention the whole time you would be worried about the stupid that might rub off...but I'm thinking of joining just cause i'm hoping that they make a traditional pattern slipjoint...

twas a starlit night , out in the brush
me and my mantis , oh what a rush.
the zombies were coming , mounting an attack
I was not worried , Jared had my back

out of the night , a shadow arose
I jumped to stop him but i forgot my dam clothes
my tactics were worthless , I felt like a fool
me , my manky paynis and a junk mantis tool.

he let out a laugh that sounded like thunder
all i could do was stand there and wonder
was it my knife ? was it my manhood?
either way the outcome wouldn't be good.

jared didnt help , he ran for the tent
what about all the money I sent ?
Nothing to do , I was sure I would die
in the fetal position I lay and I cry

the moral of the story , dont trust the man
in the end your left with your pecker in your hand.


******
in case you like nursery rhymes better


duck duck goose , duck duck goose
all the mantis ninja's are on the loose.
they come in here and create a stank
makes their arses walk the plank.

Yup, from the looks of my monitor I coughed up my pancreas!!!

Now, that's freaking poetry!!

I bow to the Master..............:D

As for Jared West, is he a real LEO, stud, Ninja, soldier hero, CEO or does he just play one on TV???
 
"We think this is among the most unique looking knives we’ve ever dreamt up...got the idea from Dork-Ops in fact"

Mission: Dream up unique variants of Dork-Ops 'deanimator' knives, market the idea as our own, underestimate knife collectors enmasse, spam the industry forums, and make ourselves look like a buncha man tits...

Success Jared, complete and total success my fearless leader - your knives are sofa king cool, as are you (did I win yet?)

Can you say "advertising revenue"?

Q: When's the last time you saw a negative review of a gun in a gun magazine?
A: Never!

Q: When's the last time you saw an honest review of an automobile in a newspaper? In an automotive magazine other than Consumer Reports?

A: Not recently! Not recently!

You will note that many newspapers even have the words (in tiny print) "advertising supplement" at the top or bottom of their automotive sections. Ad revenue from automotive dealers and companies is VERY important to newspapers. The bottom is falling out of the print newspaper market...and they can't afford to lose any advertisers. There are cars that are "great rides" in the newspaper and "unsafe" in Consumer Reports. Why do you think that is? Advertising revenue.

If you want an honest review of a firearm...you go to The Firing Line or Glock Talk. If you want an honest review of a knife...you come here.

The knife and gun magazines...more and more...are becoming advertising supplements for their respective industries.



Since everyone's doing the poetry thing...two haikus...


Knife magazines need
Ad dollars to survive. Hence,
their love for Mantis.

If you trust what you
read without questioning the
source…shame, shame on you.

Check out gun-tests, they're like the "Consumer Reports" for guns.I see bad reviews all the time there.

That's a great point...I'd forgotten about that. Thanks...duly noted. But they are the exception that proves the rule.

Combat Handguns, as an example, almost always has a gun on the cover that:

is small as a chiefs special
has 2 inch accuracy
is my combat solution
is plastic perfection
is maximum mini-whatever

...or some other such drivel. I've never seen a "bad" gun in CH.

But...on the bright side...I'm gonna subscribe to gun-tests....
