Why is everyone acting so upset about this? If someone on the Busse forum posted a review thread about some competing brand of knives, it would get moved to another forum.(same goes for any manufacturer's forum) This is the Scrap Yard Knives forum. People new to the site will come here to find out about the knives. Discussing topics other than knives- guns, swords, axes, cars, dogs, camping, etc, etc. . . would still be fine, as far as I can tell.
Asking that competitor's products not be promoted on their dime is perfectly reasonable. Huffy posts demanding new knives to talk about (as if Dan is purposely not releasing them) is not at all reasonable.
