Bad Survive! Deserves A Permanent Post In The Hall Of Shame

many accounts of good standing members have reviewed these knives and used such superlatives as "fine" and "good".
I'm sure the knives they've gotten out the door have been generally serviceable.
The point isn't to bash S!K wildly just for the fun of it, but rather to stay on the talking points and keep the discussion honest.
Over-selling the "their knives are complete trash" story only serves to hinder our credibility.

Now, if we talk about S!Ks tremendous and never-ending backlog, we could bash it wildly and still be completely right to do so.
People Could read what we write here and think, "there's no way a company could be that bad and still be in business".
They would be right to think so. But they'll see. They'll all see.
 
Perfect…..for a second. If you can’t trust what he says, how the heck do you trust what he makes? And why anyone would continue to support a douche bag when so many other great makers are turning out phenomenal products that actually show up when ordered is mind boggling.

They suck man. My butter knives are better than anything survive have ever made. A Pakistan Damascus 5 dollar leaf spring is better. Screw survive, they are amateurs.

I disagree totaly. Quality is top notch. I had several TRC knives, and I must admit that SK fit and finish is the same level if not better. Performance also, heavy batoning wood, feathersticking.... not telling you should buy the knife, because if you pay for preorder you will probably never get it, but if you get one somehow (I bought in-stock), they are very well made. I had 10 bark rivers, sold them all. fallknivens, casstroms, jokers, MKM, Lionsteels.... I had over 80 fixed blades in one time, and over last year sold almost all of them, but I kept: GSO8, GSO4, GSO4.5 scandi, TRC Apocalpse and 2 custom magnacut knives of my design (modern large leuku and small puuko both convex). I know a thing or two about knives, and I can tell, SK fit and finish, and performance are 10 out of 10, but only if you can get one, I agree, company is full of BS in bussiness... But If I from europe coud get 4 of their knives (I sold GSO3.5 when I got GSO4, liket GSO4 more) they are not that unobtainable, just buy smart, buy in stock, and ask for refund (from paypal, not SK, they wont answer the emails LOL) within 15 days if not delivered, simple as that.

That is my image. Yes.
Yes, it is less than 0,5mm (half of milimetre) (image is way magnified) with batoning on hard wood. It is factory scandy, very thin. After first sharpening, no problems at all. One of my favourite knives to go in the woods (gso 4.5 scandi).

Man, just stop. Stop shilling for a corrupt conman.
 
We can agree that they are coocks and scums, not honest business (or complete idiots in running business), but I will not agree that product is inferior in any way... I plan to obtain EDC3 in scandi, and perhaps GSO5.1, and I will, mark my words. ;)

Just telling my own expirience, not shilling, I, myself say the company is BS. just teling objectively.

I appreciate the objectivity, but this isn’t really the place to step back and consider the quality of the product. You might ask yourself what you hope to gain by insisting S!K is high quality. Quality doesn’t matter a lick if folks can’t get their knives in a timely fashion (if ever).
 


I was just replying to a comment that their knives are garbage. They are not. Company is garbage, yes. The knives are not. I am actually using the knives, not just collecitng them in drawers... thats all.
