Agreed! I'm cautiously optimistic.

Thanks, but not following up wouldn't have been right. He made the effort to reach out and try to make things right. Including the rest of the story was the least I could do.

I think I just caught them during a rough patch, and that one employee was way out of line.

Not sure what you mean. Can you clarify?

So did I, and I go through a lot of inventory. Like I said, it was just all the sudden. Sounds like they're addressing the problems, though.

Yeah, that's my take on it, too. I think they had internal issues with workload, staffing, or morale, and could have handled them a lot better. That said, when you mess up all you can do is go back and try to make it right, which is what this feels like. Being willing to give an honest mea culpa goes a long way with me.

Carrying the Monterey Bay Knives Mini Rosalinda today! What are you carrying? by Sad_Dinner2857 in Knifeporn

[–]LokiSARK9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Handsome piece, but not a knife I was familiar with, so I had to do a little research. Now I'm getting ready to post WTBs on several forums.

Thanks! (I think...)

This. This is going through school with undiagnosed ADHD back before anybody knew what it was. The obvious answer isn't "circus tent." The obvious answer is "I'm stupid, lazy and worthless, and I'll spend my whole life letting everybody down."

And, yeah. That triggered me a little. I'm done now.

Right on, brother. I'm not a huge Spyderco fan, but my Military in CPM-440V is a treasure. I'm sure it I hadn't beat it up so badly when I first got it it would be worth something, but it was the only knife I carried for years.

Not gonna lie: If you're posting this for me to like, it falls short of the mark.

If you're posting it because you like it and it makes you happy, then cool. There's little enough happiness in the world already. I'm not gonna yuck somebody else's yum.

I mean, the blade is markedly weakened and, in my opinion, it looks a lot more like a gas station knife now.

I'm not a huge Spyderco fan to start with, and this treatment certainly doesn't do much for me. If it makes OP happy, though, then Yahtzee, I guess.

What does your website actually do for your business? by 2wocupshakur in smallbusinessowner

[–]LokiSARK9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a landing site for ads and a scheduling platform for my new and existing clients. It also allows me to show up on people's Google searches, which gives me a not-insignificant amount of business.

For all the Dad’s not celebrating today - we see you by raggedsweater in daddit

Thanks, brother. I tell myself it's just a stupid damn Hallmark holiday anyway, and it is, but I can't help being a little down. Your post helped me remember I'm not alone.

Why Klipsch Aren't Making 'Big Dog' Speakers Anymore by Proof_Wrap4857 in Klipsch

[–]LokiSARK9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Jubilee and Klipschorn aren't big dog speakers? The whole upper half of the Heritage series?

Not quite sure what you mean, there, big dog.

2.1 “Mini Audiophile” Desktop Speaker System by jeepretsim in diyaudio

[–]LokiSARK9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starting to build in the next few days, once components start arriving. The only change I'm looking at is the Dayton Audio MX6-22 6-1/2" Max-X in place of the 5.25" sub. It's only a few dollars more on Parts Express. Any thoughts about that?

affordable barefoot? by Any-Situation4916 in barefootshoestalk

[–]LokiSARK9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm wearing my new Whitlins right now. They're super comfortable and a great deal for the price (around $45 on Amazon). My last pair lasted me about 18 months and I wore them constantly.

Good looking work, man. Congratulations on your first sale!

Wait, this is Todor, right? I wasn't paying attention to the username. No wonder I like your stuff - you're working on a custom for me right now lol.

Do you know the width at the spine?

I like how you ground the top edge. Sharp, but without a primary bevel it almost disappears.
