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

I saw the writing on the wall from day one. It always seemed like there was something fishy going on. Maybe this new company had all the right intentions, but something in the back of my mind urged caution. They really needed to have move as far away as possible to Survive! knives and its scam reputation. Guy burned way too many people for far, far too long a time, and the sad truth is he's probably going to get away with it. Everything about that brand needs to just die, needs to be deeply buried and never, ever again resurrected. If there's one thing I learned from this tragedy, is never, ever order a knife at full price (a small deposit is fine), especially from a manufacturer or maker with a reputation of super long (sometimes indefinate) wait times.
I mean...he kinda did get away with it. Dude didn't do a single day in jail, or make whole any of the people who were scammed and promised knives that would never be delivered, sooooo....🤷

Dudebro grabbed his bag, packed his stuff, and left, letting the creditors fight over what was left.

Guy was/is an extreme POS. He burned so many folks, and I am sure made many hesitant to order knives fully paid in advance.

There are a handful of makers I would gladly pay fully in advance because they are great to deal with (but they have not required it).

There are so many decent, honest makers out there, and we should support them as much as possible. Crappy interactions only make me appreciate the good ones more.
 
Don't forget the diehard super fans that were here and the other social media platforms that whipped up interest. I thought his designs were functional and decent however the rest of it was just hype. You go back and look through their now closed forums here you can see waaaaay too many people that were happy to be apologists for "Perish! Knives" and just kept on telling others to "stay the course". Some saw the light and some went down with the ship so to speak.
