Right. Meaningless words. Such as "U.S.A." and "custom."
Fess up, stand tall, and embrace that you source great knives from Pakistan,
Anyway, the real bombshell for me having gotten all into the drama provided by this thread was when I opened the package and removed the metric ton of bubble wrap from around it, wrapped inside wrap was a torn piece of wrapping with this inside:
I never said this was the packing for my knife. I found this torn piece of packing INSIDE my bubble wrap INSIDE the package.
I think what has happened is this CFK & IPAK has put out a solid product that is making the rest of the knife industry flop over on their backs in horror. If this CFK keeps it up, then no one will buy the overrated competition's inferior knives.

Knob_Country admits right here that he lied. Then Thomas and Crufflers push it as if it was truth. This is hilarious. This guy got his hand caught in the cookie jar and now the forum goes on another wild chase of baloney. Believing this guy is like reading the GLOBE about Hilary Clinton being a Lizard Alien and then calling her out on it and then hoping waiting for her to comment on it. Joke.
Like everyone on here but Thomas Linton, I have purchased some CFK and IPAK knives of Amazon. Nice knives.
CFK's D2 knives can not be made in Pakistan. Have you seen what comes out of Pakistan. Not this quality of knife.
Just because the owner won't give up all his sources, doesn't make him a liar. I think what has happened is this CFK & IPAK has put out a solid product that is making the rest of the knife industry flop over on their backs in horror. If this CFK keeps it up, then no one will buy the overrated competition's inferior knives.

I laughed out loud. The same company name and approximate address is here:

It doesn't bother me in the least except for them being deceptive about it. Knife is worth what I paid and seems pretty tough.
Isn't it funny that whenever a big name person or company comes under attack here on bladeforums, and they are shady af, all these new accounts pop up to talk about it and defend them? lol
Nor did I vouch for Mr Knob. I cited his evidence, like the evidence of the guy who said saw a CFK knife on the production workbench in Pakistan.
CFK sure does get a lot of free press from this forum, good or bad, it is press. If you really want to harm CFK stop talking about them. LOL

You'd have to call for an "appointment" and an actual address. The address listed is just a small postal shop that rents private mail boxes. You could go have coffee there and watch box #259. The shop gets great YELP reviews. If you are in Portland...
