Dude, I sent the damn refund already. Now are you calling me a liar? What fact do you have that I have not sent the refund? I didn't think so.

Uh, maybe we think you didn't send the refund because you said the following in bold:

Jim Adams you are ruining yourself and you are too ingorant to stop it. Stop the BS and act like a man. You come off as a vengefull whiny woman or adolescent.


And also how about you proof read your posts? English isn't even Delwins first language and he is doing a better job than you.


Stop the BS and give the man his money back. Stop posting stupid shit and grow up. You are literally destroying your business with every post. I am glad you are happy making knives for yourself because I predict in the near future you will be the only one who can stand to own a "Jim Adams Custom".

Seems like there is a fuzzy line between being inspired by a design and copying a design. Lets face it, the design in question is heavily inspired by traditional Chinese knives. So, is Burch knocking off Chinsese knifes. There's some irony for you... Adams himself admits to selling a knife sold as a "Bob Loveless Hunter." I'm pretty sure that Mr. Loveless didn't individually authorize every copy, knockoff, and Loveless "inspired" piece ever made. And, I'm pretty sure the Loveless shop didn't see any royalties from the sale of the Adams Bob Loveless Hunter, or any others...

Other design elements that are routinely copied without authorization from the original designer...
Michael Walker Liner Lock
The liner lock from which Michael Walker took his "inspiration."
Frame lock
"Flippers"
The americanized Tanto. Now there is some irony that this one came from Lynn Thompson.
etc.


So, Adams was sent an outline of a knife with overall specifications that match those of another maker. There are only so many ways that you can make a folding knife with a flipper, a traditionally shaped dao blade, and an ergonomic handle. No one is inventing the wheel here. Point, edge, handle. There are only so many ways to make a knife. Given the sketch provided, ten makers could come up with 10 designs that resemble each other in outline only, yet totally and solely reflect THEIR artistic characteristics.

The bottom line is that Jim Adams was commissioned to produce a knife. He decided not to make the knife, after buying materials. He then lied to the customer about the whole affair until the customer came here to vent his frustration.

PS. Jim, you're being overly witty with your math. 20% APR on $400 held for 3 months would be $20, except for the effects of compounding. My car loan compounds daily, and given that scenario, 20% APR would work out to $20.50. I think you meant to quote 20% APY...

Guess, I will drop 50 cents in mail.
 
If you never copied a design element, or suite of elements from another maker you would be left with a flat bar of steel. And even that has been done...
