I found this under a pile of junk on my desk. I cut it out and intended to show it to you a long time ago (as you can see by the coupon date). Just bringing this to your attention in case you weren't aware of this one yet.

I remember seeing that ad and chuckling to myself.
Out of curiosity what does the ad to do with Mr. Ralph ?
 
The 2nd knife from the left is a knockoff of his Aftermath/AXD.
 
I saw that one in a millitary surplus, looks good, buy I will never buy a cheap copy.
I would buy at least a Camillus who are allowed to make them.
They should get stabbed with their own crap. (not camillus of course :P)
 
At last year's Blade, Jeff Hall came back to his Nemesis Knives booth one afternoon, absolutely fuming about some knives being sold by some "wholesaler" that were a direct copy of a design he had just released a month or so ago. Darrel's advice to Jeff: "You just have to let it go and stop stressing out about it. It will happen again and again and none of us have enough money to sue these offshore scumbuckets with any hope of winning anything."
 
Darrel is aware of it. He showed me a catalog that had approx. 15 different designs of his. There is some potentialliy good news in regard to this. I do not have Darrel's permission to go beyond that. I will see if he wants to respond further.
 
They are finally paying me for my designs .
I found over 20 of them and they said OK!
From what I gather they are coming clean on the knock offs.

NOW FOR THE BAD NEWS
For years my knives have been knocked off.
The handles on this knife are the best and most blatant so far. These are a direct copy of my dragon song handles :confused:
Any help here with complaints to GUESS WHO 888 knives r us again would be appreciated.

Screw em' Dar. Often imitated never duplicated. Oh BTW you are gonna have a package inboud for some TLC. LOL I garantee those knockoffs don't take 1/18th the use your knives do. I can attest to that.
