Swinguard website

Post by MarkT93Cobra »

I am curious to what ever happened to Brad who back around 2004 2005 had the Swinguard Forum ? Are their any old members on here from Swinguard forum?

Brad is dead and quite a few of us were members on his forum. I drug this up awhile back so you can go to off topic and find out. We're not out much, he was a liar and thief and missed by no one here!

I have one too, a B stealth that was customized by Stray Dog. He told me about the stamp but I took it anyway.

Yeah I have a 11" dark buffalo horn red dot safety swinguard with the WSB ! My question is does that lower the value and did Frank B know that brad was putting his stamp on it also??

Yeah, Frank knew about Skipper co-branding the knives. In the end I think Brad Skipper ripped off Frank too.

As far as value I don't think It effects value much. The mark leaves a bad taste in some of our mouths but it has been so long ago most don't remember what WsB means.
