Not impressed with my first Becker

Moose said the same thing, I was directing my comment to those who theorized handles aren't screwed tightly on so that they can be modified. That theory is nonsensical. Combat survival knife handles should come ready to be used, not modified. I stand by what I said.

If you consider what I said as fanning flames, you might want to look at look at back a few posts.

I've read the entire thread.
You've gone from crap to silly to nonsensical.
The language tones down as you go, but the first two terms in particular are meant to tear down and not lift up.
All you had to say is that the assertion does not make sense. With that claim, I would agree.

That's why Moose is a great moderator and I'm just a regular schmo. I got frustrated after reading a post that mocked the TS. It happens in every thread where there's a critique of Beckers. I'm always impressed with Moose and Ethan's grace and warmness when they address issues like this. That's what my post was about.
 
I think the snark needs to abate.

Junglas, you shouldn't applaud level-headedness in one breath and use inflammatory language in another.
My job, in part, is to keep people from turning posts into confrontations. Simple.
If anyone wants to continue on with this issue, they can raise it via PM.
It's not a debate, as far as I'm concerned, and I'm not going to continue to go back and forth on it here.
 
I'll PM then, but I will address what you said about me here since you mentioned it here. If you don't like that you can ban me. I find it interesting how you jumped in to moderate me and another poster for going against the grain, yet you let Beckerheads mock the TS. Just a few posts above mine there was a post mocking the TS yet you didn't bother addressing that yet you jump on me.

I stand by what I said, nonsensically silly theories are crap.
 
[QUOTE Apparently a single swing on a small 1/2 inch branch was enough to loosen one of the handle nuts enough to allow it to fall of. So I completely remove the handle and hardware not wanting to risk loosing anything else and fashion a handle out of duct tape and decide to try some more battoning.

If you hand the means to remove the handles..... why not just tighten them.... did I miss something?
 
This thread has seen its run, ladies and gentlemen. Nothing further to be learned here, or information to be put forth.

I'm closing it, if you have an issue with that, PM or email me, we'll discuss it.

Moose
