    steven I completely agree...I am so glad hau was stopped instead of me, not only does it make us all look good (he is more equipped and ready than anyone on a 24 ft boat) but because he handles it well...I get annoyed at the tone and attitude...if you come over and search me, fine, if you come over to me like I am a poacher without any reason other than the fact that I am in the water...then we have a problem....I have filed many officer complaints and will continue to do so each and every time I am treated discourteously...

    make one out of any number of materials....shapelock being the number one that comes to mind...then wood, then abs.


    or go ted nugent and use bone or tusk.....badass dive knife right there <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x">

    very interesting...I have always felt that capitolism is a real backstabbers game...not that I am against it, but if there is a buck to made you will find three people willing to steal it from the guy who earned it.


    I assume, possibly incorrectly, that if there was something illegal happeneing, it would have been settled in court, if it is something unethical, that is a tough position to be in...many would argue that there is no ethics in a free market.....tough to swallow as a guy who believes in fairness, but likely true.


    as for my personal experience. Dano is a really nice guy who seems to care deeply about making his customers happy as possible. I respect that. I make not comments about his gear, I am generally inexperienced with most of it, but to me, it is irrelevant if I "like" it or not....my opinion does not legitimize the gear, nor does someone else's....the apparent care for the customer does speak loudly and I recognize it as a rare thing is today's market place.



    I am curious, maybe as a separate thread....how do you all let your feelings about business ethics dictate your purchases? taco bell and the tomoatoes from a few years back? any thoughts or feelings?


    i know I try to support the people I like, they make it easier when they have the best gear and prices *cough* Dan *cough cough* <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x">

    i would have a hard time doing that....I am okay with killing for food, but I am big softy and with a smart animal, I would get attached and create a relationship in my head. To each their own, not trying to give you a hard time, i am just too soft to do that :)

    frank, dont feel bad....innovation is a cycle...there aint nothing new under the sun...be proud of anything you invent...even if you arent the first to invent it <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x">

    I am a freediver, no question, just not a very deep diver <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x">


    I always find myself defending FD's to scuba guys cos they don't get it at all and do think all of us are crazy yahoo's with death wishes.... I hope I was clear. I have nothing against anyone who is enjoying the ocean in a responsible way.
