Re: I believe that this is a Chinese knock off of an AKC

They're Chinese. They sell between $20 and $40 on many Chinese sites. They counterfeit many manufacturers ie Microtech, Buck, Benchmade etc. BladeHQ and Gunbroker sellers sell to unsuspecting poor souls for $100 or more.

Re: More love for cheap switchblades

I just ordered this from Grindworx. https://www.grindworx.com/item--AKC-11-Roma-Marbled-Black-Automatic--39470 and paid $109 plus tax. Is this the same knife? That same knife is $17 direct from China. Prego spaghetti sauce has more Italian in it than that knife. Fill out a return and buy one of eac...

Re: More love for cheap switchblades

I see Grindworx has these now, but they are terribly expensive. Could they be the real thing? Grindworx says they are from Italy, but they are identical to the knives above. They're from China and are the same ones pictured. Grindwork/BladeHQ are either clueless as to where they source goods or the...

Re: Some Good Music

I was too busy chasing girls as a teen to get serious about an instrument. I regret that now. It's never too late to start learning an instrument if you have a passion for it. I didn't start to play the drums until I was 22. I had always wanted to play but my folks wouldn't let me as a kid. When I ...

Here's a shot of Buddy Revell from Three O'clock High. And even though this was a comedy, this dude was so hard core! :D

Re: Conflict of Interest

ya, you don't like that they chose the military So are you saying that joining the military is not a noble thing to do or because it's a dangerous profession? They are the Armed Forces. What about the police and firemen? Do you cringe when people join those those professions as well? Hell, that doe...

Re: What's in Bill's Drawers?

Bill, on another subject, I am surprised that a man of your stature chose the most hideous avatar I've ever seen. I am nauseated at the sight of it. Is this the image that you want to project? I'm hoping that you will choose an avatar that will reflect your integrity. :idea: No offense intended. :)...
