Posts by newbies are always quite revealing. And we lucked out and got digger1's first 6 of 6 posts right here in this thread. Digger1 busts out... nice work digger1. Your contributions are certainly ...
I ain't sure if you be meaning that for real or if you are just pulling my leg. If you are being for real, then thank you for the welcome. If you is just poking fun at me, then I don't thank you. But I hope you is being freindly and saying hi and such.
Mr. Cliff Stamp:
Out of the remaining knives, all except for a few broke under the described intended use of the knife, that can be debated in a few cases as the intended use of tactical / survivial knives varies widely.
Well, I don't know nothing about survival knives, but I been using knives since I was knee high to a june bug, mostly around the place, but lots in the woods too. My Pa been using knives his whole life and my Pappie did too. I ain't never seen them break a knife, and I seen them do lots of cutting and slicing. But that was work, not play tests. I reckon when a man is using a tool for real, he is careful with it and uses it with care. If you gotta pry something, get a stick, smash with wood or rock. Don't use your knife. I know all about digging, it is my life. I know that a knife makes a poor shovel. I can dig better with a stick than a knife.
I did break the tip off a knife once, it was a Buck knife, nice folder. I was playing this game where you throw the knife in the ground and make it stick, then walk to it. The tip hit a rock and bent, when I tried to make it straight it broke. When my Pa found how I broke it, he took it away and gave it to a neighbor boy and I didn't get another knife for a year. A year without a knife is a long time for a boy when you want one bad.
I learned my lesson from that, and been using knives for 25 years since then and never broke another knife. I guess you never learned a lesson like that or you would respect your tools a little more, I reckon you don't use them for work much, instead play testing. When you work with tools, you don't whack the edges with steel bars, use a pipe as a cheater bar to bend them, you don't soak them in salt water and not clean them, I ain't never seen a working man put his knife in a vice, smash them with an iron chain, or do any of that silly stuff. It may be fun in play testing, but in the real world, with real work, it ain't right, it is down right dangerous.
Around these parts, if you did that stuff with your knife, people would think you were out of your head.
Mr. Gator97:
There are over 100 knife reviews on my site, and Busses are around 20% or less. How is that "all about Busses" anyways?
I ain't out to start no quarel with you, I like your site right fine. Your pictures got lots of light, and your edges look real shiny. I especially like how the finish looks on all your knives, they look like a Chritmas catalog, all shiny and bright. MY knives don't stay that way, they get scratched up, and worn a bit. You're right you got lots of knives, probably got more knives than my car and trailer are worth put together. You are a luck man.
Most of them I've used at least once. Due to sheer number of knives I can't physically use all of them intensively, especially that my job is comp related.
Well there then, I didn't know I did not know that you used most of them, at least once. I figured since they look so pretty in the pictures, shiny and all, that they never got used. You're right you got lots of reviews, and you do an excellent job of describing the knives, and listing the specifications and materials. For using most of them, at least once, you also do a nice job of telling people how they perform.
You got all sorts of knives, damn if I had that many I'd open me a knfe store.
Yes, and first 6 messages from you are all in this thread, all flaming
Well, looks like #7 is too. I don't know why you call them flaming though, I don't cotton to men like that, I just ain't cut that way. Billy that shares my trailer with me is just a freind, those other rumors ain't true at all. I don't care what that no good Shelly said she though she saw. I don't even like show tunes.

I would much rather read how well a knife cuts open feed bags, whittles tent spikes, picks a splinter from under your skin, cleansd small game, prepares a meal, spreads peanut butter etc,
Mr. Cliff Stamp responded:
Those kinds of things are in there along with the stock testing.
Now that is a bit of a wiggle. I done read all your reviews on your site, and I didn't see one glop of peanut butter spread, not a single sandwich. No jelly either. I didn't see no feed bags opened, and never saw a tent peg, never saw a splinter picked or a rabbit, coon, possum or squirel cleaned. I saw you cut up some seal though, ain't never had no seal, but I bet its good with salt and pepper all floured up and fat fried in a milk gravy. County fried seal like.

Hope you were using a Tripod..
