DPx Hostile Environment Survival Tools

[bobbystoney]

Was you guys following all the drama going on over at BF? Jeesh, Not a good way to conduct business.

 

[tyler34]

you talking about dpx and esee parting ways?

 

[bobbystoney]

No. Here's a link to some of the drama that went on.

Was unable to post before the lock -- new thread - BladeForums.com

Blade forums has actually locked the DPX forums for now.

Long story short, the owner (I think he's the owner anyways) posted some personal info on somebody knocking the folder and the quality problems that it's had.

A lot of people was canceling the orders that they had for the folder because of the owners unprofessional reaction.

wow. I am still reading the posts but what a bunch of .

 

[dave29]

Wow, RYP is a douche.

 

[Bradsknives]

I will be following this situation up with my response to all of this in my advertiser sub-form. I'm still investigating the "actual facts" about the quality and backing from DPX Gear on the HEST Folder. As of right now, things do not look good for the DPX Gear HEST Folder. For those that have pre orders with me for the HEST Folder, I will be making an announcement here in the next 48 hours.

I've been following this as well. This guy is a turd and will not be getting any of my business.

 

[Bronsonbull]

Wow. That guy is arrogant and unprofessional. I was looking at the HEST/ESEE fixed blade and someday the DPX folder. No way am I getting one now. I'll still support ESEE though. Jeff Randall and Mike Perrin come off as really nice good guys with their posts. RYP thinks he's God's gift. He's losing some business from his supporters.

 

[tyler34]

well I feel better about bashing him since day one then.

Agree with supporting Jeff and Mike. They have nothing to do with DPX now so they should not be penalized at all for their seperation with RYP.

their explanation for the separation was clear concise and had no ill will at all, while I don't own any esee I can wholeheartedly support them in their business based on that alone.

 

[Clay]

well just great.

I was looking forward to the HEST folder, and know Im not so sure.

 

[jbombelli]

After reading all of that, I wouldn't take one of that guy's knives if he paid me.

 

[bobbystoney]

This all goes down the same day that my H.E.S.T. shows up in the mail. The only reason I'm not sending it back is because of the ESEE connection. I've become a big fan of theirs over the past couple of weeks and it's a well made knife.

I canceled my order for the folder last night when all of this was going down.

Ahhhh, the power of the internet. That guy totally ruined his reputation in one post and is going to lose a lot of money.

 

[bobbystoney]

He is editing members' posts in the DPX forum this morning and inserting links to his own off-site forum in their place.

This guy needs banning - Page 2 - BladeForums.com

The guy is not helping himself at all.

Here is the link to my sub forum with more info about the HEST Folder.

People that have pre orders for the DPx Gear HEST Folder really need to read this.

[M67]

I heard people talking about it on BF with no real detail.

I didn't know it was that bad though.

RYP is editing everything out, probably trying to save his own ars for when the threads get searched in the future they won't be able to tell what was said.

What a shame, what a shame

i posted over in brads forum but i got the LE HEST folder and am sending it back. ryp really just lost it. i don't know if the stress got to him or what but he turned in to a real dip ****. i never truly cared for him and his arrogance but wanted the knife due to the design and esee's involvment. as soon as esee backed out i canceled my production pre order with brad cause i said this is gonna end badly. i should have canceled my LE version too but didn't. it has the tip sticking up and there were no real extra goodies as promised which was the initial cause for delay. ryp is acting like he is a real tough guy and running his suck but realistically he is a journalist. he just reports about what actual tough guys do. either way hopefully i can get my refund

Pelton happens to be a friend of mine going back several years, but I'll say that he is his own worst enemy.

I don't want to speak out of school, but I think you guys are sharp enough to read between the lines here...Jeff and Mike of ESEE split with RYP, as you all know. I think it goes to show what stand-up, honest, good people Jeff and Mike are to always be thinking about the integrity of their business. And the foresight they posses. They both agree that reputation is all a man has in this life, when you boil it right down. It is to be protected.
