Fellow forum members, I have Gravel coming out my ears!!! All these threads..!!!! I just talked to Jason on the phone in the Hospital.. There are details in these posts that are not mentioned by the Affected party's.. (aka Jason's side of story) I do not want to get into a war about what is right and wrong but, all i do know is that Jason is no Thief,, I am very moved by that word, as most Honest Men are when it is spoken about themselves or a Friend.. I have been trying to contact him since this started.. He has sandbagged me and other people but, i talk to him all the time.. He is the one who got me into Busse Knives in the first place,, and I have utmost respect for him for what he given for our freedom.. He is a Purple Heart decorated Iraq War Vet.That is still dealing with war wound complications... He deserves the benefit of being able to defend himself.. during all of this!!! His business practices maybe but, his HONOR has never been in Question with me or others that know Jason and his Family.

Jason, has his phone and is waiting for calls from VTW or DOl or anyone who wants to talk about the details of these threads... I do not know why he didn't do the sheaths in a timely fashion, or pay the balance on the AK, he will have to man up for that!! but, he will be on here as soon as he can get to the computer... thanks

jeremy

I hope that all works out for everyone involved. I've met Jason, and like him a good deal. Please give him a chance to resolve these issues, because I believe that he wants to, and will.

Thanks, Horton_Knives for the effort to contact him and for bringing him up to speed about these threads/posts. :thumbup:
 
I have not read the other threads, but had a quick breakdown of them and I assure you....I am slow, lazy and anything along those lines you may call me, but a THIEF I am NOT! No, I did not make the sheaths.....I am not one to make excuses, but these last few months have been some of the roughest times I have faced. Along with having a new child, I moved into my first home, went through 2 hurricanes, been hospitalized 3 times and these sheaths have taken a turn on the back burner till I get my health and family taken care of.

I go into the hospital and comeback to this. I completely understand the reactions

I have asked numerous times for both folks to call me and am still waiting. All this could have been handled without resorting to name calling.

I greatly apologize to any who I have wronged and WILL make everything right.

If anyone wants a complete breakdown of events. PLEASE call me.

Chris, I will have my wife overnight your knives to you, I wish I could but am still laid up. Call me and tell me which ones are yours...I have 5 set aside and like I said......things got mixed up when I evac'd out of here.

For those that spoke on my behalf when I could not, I thank you and those that make assumptions without knowing what is happening in my life, please don't be so quick to judge.

Again.....anyone who is interested PLEASE call me....if you want to call just to call me a lowlife deadbeat...feel free. Just give me a chance to present my half of what is happening. Anyone I owe money to CALL me....I am just in a rough time and I will make amends.
 
Jason is good people all the way. I wouldn't hesitate to call him my friend, nor to do business with him.

I trust him without reservation whatsoever :thumbup:
 
I don't know any of the affected parties and I probably should not even weigh in on the whole thing, but after reading all of these threads and others similar to them over the years, I thought that I would add my 1 cent.

Sometimes things happen--bad things. People sometimes make bad decisions or get overwhelmed by their circumstances. I think that most of us would understand these situations.

However, the key is communication. The singular common thing in these threads, in my opinion, is a lack of timely communication. Stuff happens. People deserve to know what is happening-somehow or some way.

If folks could just get the people an email, phone message, or mail communication, it would really help these things from getting out of hand.

If you are laid up in the hospital, have someone else send a note to the people.

Nothing is worse than not knowing or hearing from someone. Especially when you notice them post on a forum or someone else tells you that they spoke with that person.

Communication. :thumbup::thumbup::D
 
I posted something about Gravel in another thread that has been locked. I just wanted to let everyone know that yesterday he did contact me, and as far as I am concerned, he and I are square. I think he will make good on all the deals he is involved with.
 
Thank God that DOL is satisfied now. I thought there was going to be some kind of meltdown......

I guess you are a low-life if you back out of a knife deal - but you're not a low-life if you get people to donate their knives to help out your family, and all of this while you don't list ANY of your high dollar pieces, to help your own family, on top of "buying" a knife that was donated to you, then claiming that a 3 year old would like to have it. :rolleyes: PRICELESS.....

Pretty F' ed up huh ??? :barf:
 
Please folks, lets keep this civil. Paul is a good fella, and I have no doubt he did his fair share of donating. We only ever really get to see one side of things and RARELY EVER know the full story about what is happening behind the scenes.

Besides...the only meltdown will be me IF Chris can tell me that I have 7K worth of his knives.

Aaron...fix your voicemail!

Its way more than that Brother. The moral of this story is- if you live in a glass house, don't throw stones!

True that man :)

This whole thing leaves a sour taste in my mouth.. :barf:


I am not going into further detail because I prefer to remain neutral in this situation because it does not have anything to do with me.

+1, truer words have not been spoken....communication is the key. But while you are laid up in a hospital....knives are not a concern. Those that I spoke with contacted me and as soon as I was able to get about...I was back on here trying to smooth out life.
Folks do deserve to know what is happening, but when my leg split open.....sending out an email was the last thing on my mind.
 
Yes, there are priorities in life .. Personal injury or family issues are high on that ladder.
Some folks either don't care or do not understand.

Similarly, I posted something about Jason in another thread. I want to let everyone know that Jason did contact me and apologize, and I think his apology is legitimately contrite. I accept his apology. As far as I'm concerned, he and I are square, also. :thumbup:

I hope everything else get resolved to the satisfaction of all involved.
