The Flea Market Mung Absolution Thread

Man I need to get in line for some bog oak you guys are killing it with your scores.
Andy can you do a whole batch in bog oak??
 
I took that message two different ways:

1) Is someone threatening the staff and the business with violence?
2) Is the Flea Market thread hurting the business by attributing to lost sales?

Either way that stinks!
 
I truly hope its the latter... if its the first we can get our more pointier knives ready and sharpened...
I guess we will know soon.
 
Interesting development. Hopefully someone will be along shortly to explain what's going on.
 
Not sure what is going on, but hoping all is well with Andy and the rest of the Fiddleback crew.
 
No information yet. I've been checking in while doing work on my computer since Andy made the post...
 
I tried to send a PM, but his box is full. Don't want to call in case something serious is happening... I hope Andy or Phillip will post up soon. No long explanation needed (unless you feel comfortable doing so), but just an "all clear" post would be great.

We had a stressful morning at work. The answer to your question is both 1 and 2. There was a physical threat made. There was also a threat made to swamp my friday thread and to hurt my business. I will not supply the tool to do this. I cannot believe how much drama is associated with a knife forum where we all get along and don't talk politics. You folks support us and we need and love you but I will not be bullied and I will not allow my employees to be bullied. I take the safety of my employees seriously. I also take the safety of their jobs seriously. I cannot allow the flea market thread to cost Fiddleback Forge jobs. We will unlock it at a later date. I've always believed the used knife market is important.

IMO our staff is the best, I support them wholeheartedly. Sometimes customer relationships are tricky. It should never get to this point. I apologize for worrying you all.
 
Full support. No questions asked. I know I speak for a whole lot of people around here when I say we stand behind you.
