Sometimes as the oldest brother I feel like I need to lay down the law in this house whether or not my mom's around. I'm sick and tired of these lazy-ass people in this house. I've had enough of it and my siblings will hear of it.

This may be a little thing to get worked up about, but It's a small example of what normally happens in my house. I just got home from driver's training and I poured a big glass of milk so I could dip some cookies in them. I grab the cookie container and It's as light as a feather. I open it up and there's ONE $#!@%&* COOKIE IN THE CONTAINER!!!!!!!! REALLY?!?! WHO PUTS ONE DAMN COOKIE BACK IN THE CONTAINER?!?! THIS IS JUST LIKE YESTERDAY MORNING WHEN I GET UP TO GET A POP-TART AND SOMEBODY PUT THE EMPTY POP-TART BOX BACK ON THE COUNTER!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I'm thinking about posting this in Feed back, any suggestions? Changes that should be made? Bad grammar to point out?:D
A suggestions for a title would be appreciated...

First of all my intentions are not to place blame or insult anyone, I simply want to state an opinion.

(This thread will mainly focus on benchmade, spyderco, and Kershaw/zero tolorance)

In the past months there have been a steady stream of warranty threads (first in the Kershaw sub forum and more recently in the Spyderco sub forum) and for the most part they have been negative, I'm irritated by the fact that people choose to post about negative experiences and keep the positive to themselves (that being said there're some positive threads posted:))

In my opinion 99 percent of the time the problems people have are due to communication or poor knowledge of the warranty.

In the case of communication. It's easy to miss an email (especially when you get the volume a warranty department might) before you start a thread saying your disappointed with your email not being answered email a second time. Or better yet give the warranty department a call (their number should be clearly listed on their website)

About the warranty. Read the full warranty, if it's not covered its not covered. For the most part the only thing warranties won't cover is you breaking your knife (this is a generalization) there are exceptions like clip replacements and screws (re-blading from Kershaw and benchmade)

In person I've had the pleasure of meeting people from kershaw and benchmades warranty departments specifically Thomas Welk and Nolan Kidwell. Both good people. And over email spyderco's Charlynn. Responses to my emails have been extremely prompt and always friendly.

Also I wanted to add that I realize Benchmade doesn't get too many negative threads, but I thought they should be mentioned.

My bottom line,
People need to realize that posting a negative thread has a sizable affect on company's reputation, if you saw 5 negative threads about a company's warranty and only 2 positive what would you think?

Think before you post, and if possible give people the benefit of the Doubt, the people in warranty departments get paid to help, give them a chance, they won't bite:)

Lastly if you intend to post in this thread pleas keep it civil and respect each others opinion.

Have a good night!

I wouldn’t post it... its just gunna start some kind of fight like it always does. There are a lot of people who get worked up for nothing, and I would hate to see people get sent infractions just for a unnecessary argument.

Its obviously up to you whether you post it or not, but just know, people will get riled up.

Yeah good call it would just start a flame war, the mods will handle trouble makers as they come. I think our sub forum is really on the right track, glad we have the mods we do.
