His main problem was that he was trying to make knives to an unobtainable level of perfection with the kind of operation he had. The other was dreaming up new designs and trying to put those into production when the original designs were never getting made, finished, & shipped out. It sounds like his OCD and/or autism, and over ambition got the best of him, and he was too proud listen to anyone else trying to talk some sense into him trying to help him.

I knew Guy was making excuses, and that his manufacturing process was badly in need of process development for scale, and that he didn’t price to cover costs but I didn’t realize that it was THAT bad, with him bottlenecking 80% of the manufacturing processes and going AWOL half the time. Looks like he did pretty much everything wrong from both a business strategy and manufacturing process development perspective.

He will sell off all those parts (which, technically, by law belongs to the customers....we have already paid for them), to a company to partial pay the debts that he has mounted up. How Guy can look himself in the mirror in the morning and not do the honest and honorable thing is beyond me.

I appreciate the way you're trying to help, it's really great to see a supportive stance instead of taking the easy road of dumping on Survive and Guy. I had two preorders for the "Vendetta" line of knives that he had planned, excited that things might've been turning around in 2022. Best I can hope for now is that someone buys that IP from him and they become a reality (but not my preorders themselves). I'm fortunate to have found other designs that fill what I was looking for, but still would've been nice to get those.

Interesting video, Slater! What a bizarre situation! Full stop! I'm not super familiar with the knife industry, but stuff like this happens in the guitar/instrument/music industry ALL the time. There'll be a talented luthier (guitar builder) who impresses everyone with his instruments, gets stars in his eyes about starting a guitar company, starts taking order for guitars, and a year or two later inevitably gets in over his head, takes too many pre-orders, can't keep up, and files for bankruptcy the next year, leaving customers without their guitars, etc. Alway a sad situation! I suppose it just sort of reinforces your point, Erica, about working with custom knife makers who have their hands on every single knife, who do their own custom heat treats, as opposed to Survive, who did NOT have his hands on every single knife, but was using Peter's heat treat to try to keep up with all the back orders... It says a lot about you, Erica, that you're trying to find a solution to this situation, and not just talking reddit conspiracy nonsense and empty political bantering etc. You're such a wonderful, empathetic person, and I appreciate you!!

Ordered 1 in 2022 and had asked for a refund months ago after sending numerous emails, certified letter, and social media posts with response back. I feel that if this 5,000 pre-orders that were paid for, maybe a class action lawsuit should be in progress. Why should the average hard-working American have to lose his money for somebody? I knew when he started posting KZbin videos two to three times a week. Crying about every little thing that everybody else goes through in life. Like losing a family member, the steel problem, how this destroyed his marriage, and how he works everyday was excuses because guess what? Everybody has those same issues. If people decide to do anything about going after him please let me know because it's not right that he's going to walk away and we get stiffed.

It’s about time that they stop stealing money from people- taking payment and order for product they they knew their business model couldn’t support. It’s dishonest and disgusting. People loved the designs and the novelty of high grade steels. But for me, all those folks that bought them under the idea there would be a lifetime warranty should also get something some reassurance if he sells the design and company

Erica can you also link the Creely video addressing the Magnacut claims that Guy has made and, based on the video I watched a few hours ago, continues to blame for the business going under? I find it very suspicious his response video has zero comments for one and also that he's continuing to blame an issue which he has never proven and that the majority of knife maker's have not run into. Guy seems shady AF

I was one of those thousands of people, it’s messed up that my money is lost or should I say stolen. Guy should have just sent back the money instead of telling people they are coming. I was told if I switch steels it would have been sent out in that month. That was 4 months ago. I ordered my knife December 2022. I understand being in a bad situation but Guy didn’t handle this correctly in anyway whatsoever.
