You are right, it is not a direct ad hominem, but an ad hominem of a false cause fallacy correlation.
I write the company off due to me having limited income and not wanting to buy a knife that's fraudulently advertised. But to say the evidence is not there is laughable. Hey it's your money so do as you wish but don't expect folks here to sing hallelujah.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.
And u show a non Mick blade to make your point? I know it looks funny...but at least the guy makes knives.

I know it looks funny....
Ironically, if you google 'dwyer turd knife,' its the first one to 'pop' up.BladeScout, that is priceless. That turd of a knife.

Oooooh boy, this is gonna be fun.
See I looked into it, and there is only the one shipment manifest from China, and a few vague claims that Jared heads Quartermaster. Not quite sure how only a few sources say Jared is the head of Quartermaster, most just say a designer for if he is, in fact, the head. A single shipment manifest also in no way could have given Quartermaster enough knives to be in business for years (they were started in 2012), especially when they are in most big knife stores now.
No matter how you look at it, if you remain objective there is no properly damning evidence, just a lot of hearsay and feelings of guilt.
Seems odd to defend a company so stridently when you don't even know who runs it.
i dont get why those people exist other than they cant accept the truth and live with it because they own it. its like denial or something. theres a bunch of people like this.
what if the truth they seek is plain as day to them? they still wouldnt care and praise it.
personally if i found out i owned a qmaster i would be pissed off, i would throw it in the road, start it on fire, run it over, take a hacksaw to it etc.
also if this guy is habitually posting about quatermaster knives, maybe he should be banned for promoting them, knowing of there poor reputation, as pointed out every time, but i looked 6 months at his posts and no other qmaster posts.
if you want a quartermaster knife just buy some WE Knives, cause then you get the real thing with the real pivot not some pivot thats going to fail like mentioned in the reddit thread about the qmasters.

Warren Thomas posted that they stole his designs (Including Mr. Roper) and never paid him for them. Is that an ad hominem?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.

Wait so WE knives is affiliated with Jared West?
