How much have they paid you to keep commenting all this BS? They trading you free knives? It's been a known tactic of theirs. Block those that disagree and buy off those foolish to accept.
They haven't paid me a dime, but I sure wish they would! I am not too proud to be bought off! The reason I support them is that their knives are pretty well made, their blade steel seems pretty spot on from sharpening it, and their customer service has been above and beyond, better than a lot of much bigger name companies actually.
Quartermaster Backstage has uploaded several clips where they do some stuff with CnC/WEDM machines on instagram -- supposedly proving that they are, indeed, making knives in the U.S. (They even have a clip where they go from outside the shop, showing some U.S cars and such, and into the shop with the CnC machines.)
Based on the comments, it sounds like people think that this is enough to prove that they are actually making knives in the U.S. What do you guys think?
Can you post the vids? for those of us not on Instagram. Sounds like a veiled attempt at saving face.
I hate this company sooooo much. I get sad every time someone spends their hard earned money on a company that laughs at their customers. Bladehq said they carry them because they sell....sad that this company would rather make a few more sales vs. carrying legit product.That shop is not theirs. That's Detail Mold & Design in Leander Texas owned by Todd and Brenda Tatro. Qtrmstr tried geotagging the videos at their dripping springs address making it sound like it's their shop. I called their ass on it and they since removed the location tags. Nobody that follows them knows shit about anything though so people still think they've proved themselves and that it's their own shop. Interesting they're having such a simple fixed blade made here in the USA. How about some video and photo of all their folders being made inhouse like they claim? Dumbasses.

So does this Jared-Claude Van Damme guy still wear eyeliner in his promo pics?![]()
If something substantial comes up not sourced from Facebook private eyes, I will gladly say Quartermaster done messed up. That said, their knives are actually well made, WHICH IS WHAT THIS WHOLE BLOODY THREAD WAS ABOUT. I have handled quite a few of them, and while they are in a prohibitive price bracket (I don't have $150+ for knives) I like their ridiculous designs, and they fit my hand surprisingly well, with no notable hot spots. Something tells me this will, yet again, turn right back into a haterade chugging contest, with no mention of the actual point of the thread. Amirite?
