Blade Show 2014 - What did you get?

[tvguy]

I wigs I could tell the entire world what a douche nozzle Greg and his staff are. This isn't an opinion. It's a recorded and reputable fact.

I didn't like the guy the first time we met. He was peddling cheap folders at a knife show.
He now is on the overbuilt knife train that many are.

His favorite saying....
"People are lucky to own my knives "

Skip Medford, get a Ramon Chavez. Better knife and better people.

You hit the nail on the head . . . that was exactly his attitude. Like I should thank him for allowing me to buy one of his knives.

I'll check out Ramon Chavez . . . thanks. I've got a Direware coming later this week that should be pretty cool.

I had a horrible experience on Saturday at the Medford booth. Long story short, after agreeing to buy a Praetorian for $750, as the sales guy was ringing it up he raised the price to $850. After a brief, calm discussion Greg Medford came over and raised the price again to $1,200 and was a complete jerk about it. Needless to say I didn't buy a knife. I later did a Google search of "Medford knife customer service" and quickly found out that my experience was not unique. I wouldn't own a Medford now if someone gave it to me . . .

Thanks for letting us all know what a douchebag greg is!

Lol. Yep. Douche

There are no shortage of makers that MAKE and GRIND KNIVES. I have Mid Tech's, but don't charge customs pricing for CNC.

Michael Burch @burchtree blade works is one of the hottest custom knife makers in the country right now... The guy has a list to get on his list for his CLOSED list!

and .... still one of the nicest guys you will ever meet!

Lottery table price on his custom $650-950 / secondary market price $3,000+ The knife in the photo sold at auction (at Blade) for $13,000!

Problem is....fan boys clammed over his stuff and he is a year out on orders. Whatcha gonna do
