What has happen to the Emerson Knife Forum

yeah shame about the hinderer subforum - now everybody seems to be on their facebook page - hope emerson keeps the subforum - it is still cool to have besides facebook and all that...
 
Facebook is super ghey.

Its nice here, quiet and respectful. Should be called the Emerson library instead.
 
Lol I couldn't agree more about the social media. I hope this place sticks around because no way no how will I join Fb.
 
I personally like discussion forum better than what I call FAKEbook. Facebook to me become like looking through a bunch of non sense for a t-bone steak to take a bit out of. My nephew posts ever fliping boring, or phoney detail of his life. You do not want him as a fakebook friend, as he will give you so much to read you will be jelious of him....NOT.

Forums are searchable, or you need only look a recent posts to find out if what you want to, need to, or would like to know has been a subject of a recent post.

The problem with forums is trools, over moderating, misinformation, or misinformation to drive revenue, or inactivity.
 
Typical LOL. I say what the heck carry them both.
Good plan. :)
Tomorrow I will. :thumbup:

I always have one Emerson on me though; the Combat Karambit in the left front pocket.
Made in 2009, and it's been carried almost every single day since.
 
Same way I got a Hinderer XM-18 right after the sub-forum closed! :D

Now I have to decide whether to carry the CQC-12 or the XM-18...tough decisions. ;)
But no one will care which one I carry, judging by the slow down...


When I win the lottery or become king of Canada, then I'll post pictures of the new Emerson that arrives daily. :thumbup:

oh come on man....reminding me that the hinderer sub is closed? darn....I've been really regretting selling my 3.5 spanto. Trying to trade an SMF for one now.
that and a mutant and I'd be SET for....Idk maybe a month or 2? :D
 
It's cause you get tired talking about g10, 154cm no matter how cool new designs are. Nothing really new to keep things going.

Ah, but now you can get an XM-18 with Bowie blade. :)
XM-18 AND a CQC-12...double Bowie goodness. :)
 
just ordered my first production emerson to go with my custom cqc8 - cant wait to get it - and contribute with some pics! :D
 
I feel like this forum used to be filled with Trolls and there was daily action of people just feeding into them. I think we've all done a better job of policing this sub forum and now it's all about the knives and legitimate conversation.

I think you may be right. I have noticed a distinct lack of negative threads and posts compared to the past.
 
Speaking for myself, I have been on the Facebook groups a lot. Seems to me the activity is there right now as well as the honest people. I still love EKI and still have my 13 on the way from Nath, but certain things have led me away from them. And quite honestly Due to the Hinderer bubble finally popping I was able to step into one for not much more. Albeit, my knife tastes seem to be cyclical so I'll be back. Just my opinion and from my experience.

LOL guys! Facebook can be a bit silly but there are folks there that I know are members here or the green forum. There is more post there but half of it is "look what I got" mailcall posts. I have made a few friends that are active only there. I don't view it as a bad place but expect silly comments purely for fun and there's barely any trolls like on forums.

I agree. It used to be much different, it's a whole lot better now. Still have some trolls that drop in from time to time, but no big deal.
