All the forums need to be careful.
We had a strong group of like minded people over the forums with similar interests. The foundations of what was built is being pecked away at by somebody or something and eventually the whole shebang going to come crashing down around your ears with the bushcraft and knife using groups fragmented. What we have won't come back.
Now, it is a fact that someone has it in for knives it is also a fact that when a group is strong and organised it has the ability to fend off petty attacks and restrictions by just the voice of the people. The people have the power and always have had.
There has been a concerted effort by certain government agencies to break down that strength and unity going on for a long time and for numerous things. These people are known as shills. I believe there are some on this forum and BB and all the other forums where there is strength and unity. It is a threat to what they want, they corrupt and cause tension. it has been happening more and more on here and elsewhere because we the people fall for it and bite. When the real attack on knives comes there will be nothing to stop it because we will all be arguing over whos copied who or whos said this and that and before you know it........BANG no more bushcraft or BB or UK blades or BCL. What the hell you all going to do when its too late? Jack **** thats what because the time for fight has long passed and were all sunk.
A quote that seems to be taking effect here.
"and many strokes, though with a little axe, hew down and fell the hardest timbered oak"
Stand together people in the interest of keeping what we have. If you want to keep it that is. So what if we bicker a bit, as long as we are together for what we believe in then there is still room for disagreements on a personal level. Thats life. But do not lose the way.
