Now that you mention it they do look almost identical to a certain toxic toy that I've seen somewhere.
 
Hey I have seen those before.They look pretty damned close to what Eric is making at Toxic Toys. Hey so do the sheaths.
 
Hey Robert,

Those look an awful lot like my Toxic Titan Sushi Stix and Titan Stylus, which you've obviously seen since you've been posting on the USN in my Toxic Toy Shop forum, correct?

Here's my Titan Sushi Stix.

You're getting quite the reputation lately for ripping designs, Robert. Seems to me there was another design just a few weeks ago which you edited out of the USN, but you left your rip-off thread here http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=248720 and you said:

Man, Robert, you're a real scumbag, huh? How the hell do you even sleep at night? Not a creative thought in your head, so you just rip-off other people's designs whenever you see fit. Sucks to be you.

Yes that is what you would call owned.Also blatent thievry. Better not invite him home or to a party who knows what hell take
 
you cant be serious...you are saying these arent a copy ?
Silly me...TI , same contour of the handles , same divots for gripping....hmmm......

I dont think Eric is trying to sell on your thread , he does that elsewhere on his own bandwidth .
 
ROBERT,
YOU ARE A THIEF, PLAIN AND SIMPLE. IF YOU CANT COME UP WITH YOUR OWN DESIGNS THEN QUIT. STOP MAKING COPIES OF OTHER PEOPLES WORK. ITS JUST PATHETIC

Don't see the copy, different size, different material for the sheath, WAY different price.
Eric,
Are you offering yours for sale on my thread?
 
Chopsticks?
Are you FREAKING NUTS?

Ripping off CHOPSTICKS?

I'm sorry, but 5000 years of chopsticks, I think makes them public domain...
They been made out of every material known to man, and Toxic thinks he owns the rights to CHOPSTICKS?

What a nut... and they don't even look like good chopsticks...

Robert, I think you should concentrate on making more chopsticks and see how far that goes...
 
Jeeeze man, I thought I told you about making other peoples knives!!! Lets just file this under F- everyone, I will rip off anyone I please...
What a joke.... You have skill, why dont you make something original for a change???
Rippin off My bud is a non starter....

Hey MelonCollieMutt, grab a clue. Here's the pics that Robert posted here before he removed them;

Robert apologized and that's fine, but the above pics that he removed show what happened here.
He has also visited my forum frequently and commented on my designs. He also stated this in my forum:

Actually I have some Titanium coming in. But would not feel right about encroaching on OL Erics turf here. May take it to another forum venue if there is any interest.

So, Mutt, you're not paying attention. He has admitted to stealing very specific designs. A few weeks ago it was the Tom Brown Tracker here http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=248720 where he states:

In that same post he also said:

Just had to try to see how the knife works.
$225 Delivered Conus.

Now,.....he what's wrong with that kind of thinking? It's okay to rip-off someone else's design.....if you're only making a few of them .....to see how the knife works.....???? And in that same thread he's taking orders for them?
Notice that he removed the pics from that thread as well.

It's called stealing.

So a few weeks ago it was Tom Brown and tonight it was one of my designs. Maybe it stops here, but maybe not.

Like Trace said, it's really a shame because Robert has a skill that he could be quite successful with......if he would stop ripping off the designs of other knifemakers and come up with something of his own.

When Robert says
Originally posted by RobertHankins

that's like saying "Please don't shoot me for breaking into your house because some other thieves break into houses and don't get shot."
But.....that doesn't make it right.

So basically, Mutt, I don't care who makes "chopsticks", unless they saw many pics of mine first, make them from the same diameter ti, with the same type of taper to the point, the same traction grooves, and the same exact style sheath. He even copied the exact hole set-up for the lanyard on the sheath.

Is any of this making sense to you yet, Mutt? Probably not.

AC do you think it is OK to steal or are you just being a sore head because you got your self banned over there. It was a blatent rip off and your remark makes you look like a fool especially since the maker of these stolen Ideas thought it was wrong posted an apology and removed it. Or do you think your OK will change his mind and make him feel better for stealing an idea.The man has the no how and the means to make his own ideas yet for some unknown reason you think it is OK to not have to be honorable.What you just said speaks volumes about you.And it is probably the reason you were banned over there in the first place. Anything a small maker comes up with and puts up for sale is part of his bread and butter line DUH!!. Grow up:rolleyes: Stealing it is no different than breaking into his house and stealing his bread and butter.But you seem to think that is OK.Now who is the dweeb
 
This dumbass went so far as to copy Eric's freaking picture layout! :barf:

Thief...and not a smart one. Robert, did you think moving your stolen goods over here would make it alright? Kind of like the difference between breaking into someone's house during the day...and in the middle of the night huh? Jackass

Ted
 
I see that AC Doc had second thoughts about his it is ok to steal because I am mad at eric post.What a dweeb. I just wish I had saved it for evryone to see.
 
Hello Mutt,
If you want to pretend that this situation isn't EXACTLY what it is then the only person your fooling is YOURSELF. Hankins has no illusions about what he has done so why would YOU???
