Your knowledge on a subject you post about it what I expected ;-)

Burger IS Strider (I thought somebody uttering anything on the subject would know - my mistake).

Ill assume, you dont know what you talk about in the future😆😆😆😆😉

Im KIDDING!!😆

On a more serious note: The Burger thread linked to previously in this thread pretty much tells me all, I need to know about this character .... stolen valor and all.

Others can of course continue to buy the knives, as some dont care about such trivial matters - its their dough.

In Bold----That would be an accurate assumption:D


Seriously, at least this forum allows scumbags like that to be outed. Thankful for that.

If I am not mistaken, isn't Jared no longer with Quartermaster, and all he did was design some knives for them? Either way, Jared is a tool, but so is Strider. Hinderer is a dick if I am not mistaken. Emerson is unbearable. Medford is an overbearing asshole. A lot of companies have jackasses at or near the head while still making a good product.

Whoa! Nope, just nope.

And btw he calls himself a knife maker not a designer, and never made a knife in his life.

So the owner is a douche. Good to know. But why the double standard. I see so many owners of strider knives and yet, I remember a big thread about him being a giant douche. Yet, there are tons of strider knife fans on this forum, probably some posted on this and other quartermaster threads.

My take on it: Mick did wrong, but still made legit blades.

Watch out folks, Jared is a "Mad Blacksmith" now!
 
Update: Jared the "knife maker" is now designing tires. No not a joke.

Just when you think you've seen it all, some jerk has to come along and prove you wrong.
 
Looks like to keep from buying from a scumbag I'll need to limit myself to Reeve, Spyderco, Buck and. . . . . . . Cold Steel!

Nope cold steel is another knife world evil doer, the owner is not only an asshole but they have been attacking many small time makers with lawsuits about the "san mai" BS.


Only knife company worth avoiding based on political beliefs is Strider, no matter how you slice that one he's insulted every veteran in America, and it could be argued he's getting rich from it.

Its also humorous to see members say they won't buy a qtrmswhatever but they buy Striders.

For the record I've never bought and never will purchase a quartermaster knife, however strike me intrigued on their marty mcfly knife.

Dunno, there are plenty that dislike Reeve, Cold Steel has more than their share of moral failings and Buck includes religious pamphlets with all their knives. I'll just trust in Sal. ;)

Or... You could not resort to ad hominem (not you specifically, the general you) and base the knives on the knives, not the personality of the maker. Too many makers and owners are assholes, even from big name, well respected companies. Mantis was balls. Quartermaster might not be fully transparent, but as I have said before all evidence damning them is anecdotal or circumstantial at best. The knives themselves are well made, and their customer service doesn't mess around. They even massively upped the quality with a minor price increase.

I do find it funny how many people will write the company off without even touching one of their knives. It's like people actively look for reasons to find companies to write off and whine about endlessly.

"not fully transparent". Please. What you mean is that most here think they are lairs. Why would anyone want to touch a knife based on lies? Need evidence? Look at this and every thread on this sham of a company.

Absolutely right
There is alot if heard mentality on forums
One 'important' member bashes a company and a flock of followers will repeat what he said... without any real lufe experience of the product

Or you could actually learn what ad hominem is before trying to accuse folks of it.

Note that all of that evidence is, again, anecdotal or circumstantial at best. Some stuff that some people found on the internet is hardly damning evidence. It comes back to 3 points always, the connection with Mantis (which is assumed, not official), the shipment notices (which are circumstantial), and the Instagram pictures (which are the most circumstantial, coincidence does not make guilt). That bothers me when somebody is wrongfully damned and I am in a position to say something about it.
