Strider score or Turd Clone Acquisition?

And the seller has a reputation to uphold, and REK has one also...in addition to a business to run.

And yet you accused the seller of pulling a scam, when even the most casual reading of his sale post makes it blatantly obvious that he didn't, and you called REK's work "a turd."

Seems like an apology would be in order, rather than an excuse.
 
Walk away dude. I contacted seller, read seller's feedback, contacted REK, read Josh's feedback and it's a done deal. I'm sending REK another knife for finishing and would buy from Techno again. I'm happy and let's keep it that way.

The thread's still here. It wont walk away, dude.
 
So..... Problem solved? :foot:


The only mystery is the blade steel on the SNG; it's not stamped or noted in the sale thread.
 
Haha. Thread title cracks me up. :thumbup:

Glad your Strider is real; looks sweet.

Seems like the unmarked ones are either S30V or S35VN IIRC..

I thought it could even be 154cm as well unless my memory is off?... :foot:

Anyway, OP; I 'll give you $10.00 for that knockoff if you still don't want it...




;):D:rolleyes:
 
My bet is, this is the old "hey what's this?" to drum up interest thread and then we see it on the exchange in a couple weeks thing.

Anyone who has ever even looked at a Strider knows that is not one of their grinds, as well as the info in the sales thread...
 
I like it too... I also have a custom reground Hinderer Eklipse from Josh (REK), and it came out fantastic. It's much more usable than the tanto blade the Eklipse sports. I have nothing but respect for Rick Hinderer, but just wanted something a little "different" from my other production Eklipses I own.

'Seems more like a question than an accusation.
A question that was answered.
Without seeing the thread, I took the title as a "What do I have here?"

I totally agree @robgmn. I think the Op was just worried it could have been a foreign mfg'd "turd clone" knock off. And simply wanted to ask the fine people of BF to verify that it's real.
Probably kept the original thread left alone for a reason and did not want to bad mouth REK or any one else. I think he just wanted to keep the peace and find out it was real.

Looks like the finer people around here helped him out.
