Random unrelated pic for attentionš. Hello all! I really appreciate all of the support on this platform recently, you guys on here have been awesome, and very open to learning and having good, constructive conversations. And I really appreciate you guys accepting me into this community and allowing me to share my project. This morning I attempted to use BladeForums as an alternative method for sharing my Rockwell hardness data. I was met immediately by overreaching moderators who had no idea what they were talking about, but had the audacity to discredit my hard work so far. I am seeking another means of posting my work if possible. Perhaps a new forum could be created? Having moderators that tell you what you can and cannot say is absolutely not something I want on my posts. The ability to freely share information and whatever we want, is something I am 100% not willing to negotiate on. I feel as an American (yes, Iām going there, fight me!) I have the right to say what I want to say, and where I want to say it. So if anyone has any sort of ideas on where to go from here, feel free to reach out to me. For those interested in what transpired on BladeForums, I will link the thread below. I am truly baffled that a āSupermodā didnāt even bother looking into my work before crapping all over it. He went into detail about superficial testing out of the blue. A quick 1 minute search through my (extremely easy to find) website and spreadsheet would have completely prevented everything he said from being said. Thanks for reading my blab of words, and I hope you all have an awesome day. Kizer 10V blade, and Byrd 8Cr13MoV blade are the next tests upcoming, so stay tuned!

Iāve been a member of Bladeforums for years . One of the main moderators is a guy called Blues. Heās an ex-sheriff and a real hardass who loves turning up the pugilist dial up to 11 at the drop of a hat. Donāt take it personally, that place is full of old curmudgeons who are very set in their ways. There is a significant amount of knowledge there about knives in general but if they donāt know you, they are not the most welcoming group to begin with.
Bladeforums has overreaching and clueless mods? Whaaaat⦠I donāt think this will be shocking news to anyone here lol
“is mitutoyo a good machine?”
Jesus Christ they’ve never heard of mitutoyo? Then they don’t know shit about metrology.
