View Full Version : Brad Duncan Custom Knives = No Honor

Anyone else get robbed by this coward? Same old story here... sent him the cashiers check in October 2007 (which was cashed right away) and months later no knife, no communications, no nothing! Turns out he isn't even listed as a business in Texas according to the Better Business Bureau. To anyone even considering one of Brad's knives: DON'T DO IT, move on to someone reputable like Lightfoot. Brad Duncan doesn't deliver the goods, doesn't return calls and doesn't return emails. Yeah, I know knifemakers can often take a long time to complete an order as that's just the state of the industry. I can handle that, no problem. But I haven't even been given the usual courtesy of being told "I'm a bigshot knife maker shut up an be glad you have been given the privlege to fuck off and wait." by Brad. I mean nothing unless his poorly composed automated email replies count. Funny thing though... I looked over his website again, trying to view it from a general internet consumer stand point -vs- a knife collector standpoint. In retrospect, if he were in any other business I never would have sent him a dime: no address listed, no phone number listed, no recent updates to his site content, expired or outdated email addresses, poor spelling and improper grammar. Basically, very unprofessional and fitting the profile of a scam website. Anyhow, best not to get off on a rant. Don't order anything from him as he can't even deliver on orders from October 2007, so I would doubt anything you order now will get done anytime soon. Oh, and he IS accepting orders AND full payments for new work, I checked. Mostly, DON'T send him a dime until your knife is in your hand since you will not hear from him again once he is paid. I always said that I would never engage in the open flaming of someone on the forums, but this time, for Brad I'll make an exception. He deserves it for stealing $450 from me. Hope it's worth it Brad and a Happy Fuckin New Year to you! Oh, and Brad, feel free to post your side of the sob story. It would be welcome since I havent heard ANYTHING since you cashed my check.

I reversed the charges not to long ago on an order he said would take 4-6 weeks which was back in Sept.
I can count on one hand the number of makers I will send up front money to and they are all regulars here on JD.

Yeah, I should have paid via credit card, but he doesn't accept credit card. Didn't stop to wonder why... until now. Guess I'm not alone - thought maybe I was the only one.

I paid him thru paypal via credit card or else I would have skipped the whole thing.
When Brad wants to, he can make a great knife... You just never can tell when he will want too.
Maybe Donk can come on here and tell us whats going on w/ Brad.

I bought a Aftershock from TNK. I guess Duncan is a prudential guy 'cause the detail of the knife are pretty good. As a flipper its accuracy and smoothness are definitely better than the Full-contact-fighter made by Lightfoot. A guy making beautiful works shouldn't be so ugly mentioned there. Maybe something else happened.

True, Brad makes some very nice knives indeed. I don't think his knives are poor in quality, just that his character is poor in quality. Nuff said.
I am good friends with Brad, I will try to call today and see whats up!??!He is usually very good, about customer service, I talked to him right after Christmas, and he said he was so swamped with orders that he did no really have time to talk, he also recently had his first son. Not trying to make excuses, but those who know Brad, knows his plate is full, before anything to do with knives. Hopefully I will find out something today!

I sent a knife back to him a few years ago and probably would not have got it back if Bob Bartoli had not gone to Brad's house for me.
Many of us on JD were/are big fans of his knives, but his attitude and shady behavior have turned many of us off. There are too many good knifemakers out there to deal with one that can't get his act together.
Sorry to hear of your troubles.
Good luck!

I spoke to Brad a few weeks back. He said he hired a guy to take care of phone calls and internet, orders and stuff so he can concentrate on knifemaking. Hopefully this works out for him.
I have been reading that a lot of people are having problems. Let's hope for the besthttp://www.jerzeedevil.com/forums/images/icons/icon14.gif

Thought I'd add this little bit from Bladeforums since it seemed pertinent:
First, let’s just say I was a huge fan of Brad Duncan knives, (I like how his knives look & feel). What I don’t like is people taking advantage of others like Duncan is doing to quite a few people who post on this forum. It truly tarnishes his name and brand….
All that said and done, last week my wife and I had won a Brad Duncan knife on eBay. I won it for an amazing low price for this knife, $538. I took a chance and bid on the auction from a seller who had a 0 feedback score. I am sure I won this knife for such a low price because of the trust factor of a 0 feedback score.
To make a long story short, it ended up being Brad Duncan’s wife selling the knife on eBay. I was shocked when she demanded more money for the knife than the winning price on the auction. She stated that she made a mistake, and to send her $720. She also stated, “Im not a dealer, thats cheeper than what a dealer would charge you”. I understand that a first time user on eBay can make mistakes, but work something out, (ie; split the difference, etc). I had mentioned this to her, and she ended up not wanting to communicate with me anymore. Thus in turn, I will never see this knife. I had also double checked all the info and have proof of everything I stated. I had also sent all the emails and eBay item # to Brad & Ed’s new email address and never received a response.
I did not lose any money on the transaction like others had on this forum, but it was still very frustrating. What I don’t understand is; first, why Brad using his wife to sell his knives on eBay of all places? Second, why is he not getting other people their knives which have already been paid for? Third, how does this look to the dealers that represent him?
I am not a cheap person and have spent several thousand on knives in the past. I would have gladly paid more than the $720 she had requested for this knife to someone with a good reputation.
I was not going to mention this info, but after reading another negative experience with this knife maker, I just had to. Such a shame…….
PS: Brad Duncan's wife's eBay username is stingrayextreme.

Certainly he is a maker in a completely different league, hell different universe than Brad is in. Thanks for the info BigMark.

I believe Duncan's wife is under a legally binding contract(at least that's what it says when you agree to bid) to sell you the knife at the winning auction price. Report her to Ebay.

If you want to have some fun, try the command: whois duncanknives.com or any other URL. Perfectly legal networking command/tool used to search registered internet domain owner contact information.

greetings xj-linux; you do not know me, im a fairly new jd member. i saw your thread on how brad duncan is a straight up rip off.he owes me $275.00 for a deposit i was supposed to get back from him for a cancelled order.i cancelled the order for an aftershock after recieving a defective whiplash which still needs fixing. i told him to not cash my personal check and he still did.i was told by knowledgable individuals to try and start a class action suit against brad duncan and i truly wonder how many others he ripped off.i know he has gained an incredible amount of notoriety from his sleazy scams.as far as his new business manager goes, he is just following brad's mo of ignoring emails.brad posted a sob story email to all about feeling bad for earning this bad reputation. i know one thing for certain, he is going to rip off the wrong person and he will get what he deserves from all he ripped off.i would not be surprised if he already has.i know brad will see this reply and he is running scared.as far as ed yabarra goes, he is following brad's lead.i don't have to do shit because karma always takes care of business and it is always ten times worse than what the person did.anyways, if you have any questions or feedback, i'm here to back up all of brad's victims.patience is a virtue. killerelite

Thanks for the input killerelite. Sad as it sounds, I guess it's somewhat reassuring to know I'm not alone. Not that I would wish anyone else to lose to this guy. The amazing part is that no one seems to be asking Brad for anything extra or outlandish for their troubles. Just refunds or their knives. That's not out of the usual nor is it something which couldn't have been done fairly simply these days with PayPal or what have you. I'm not asking for an extra $100 for pain and suffering here. The second thing, adding insult to the monetary injury, is his utter lack of remorse and unwillingness to communicate. Currently, his wife is posting on bladeforums.com and really doing an excellent job of demonstrating how customer service at Duncan Cutlery is handled. Sadly, this issue will probably have to go the legal route as I really feel there are not any other options left. (Yeah, like I have the money to burn following up on that one!) I thought that posting on some of the forums might spark him to realize that things were really were getting bad and he should belly up to the bar. Man up, take his licks, pay his debts and get back to making knives people pay him for (in advance). This is not the case apparently. I will be VERY interested to see how many dealers will continue to be stocking new Duncan knives: 3 months, 6 months a year from now. The old "We already have them in stock and money laid out on the Duncan knives." will only play out for so long. Three months from now it will be obvious which dealers could give two shits about customers when new Duncan knives keep showing up on their websites. Ah well. Thanks for the support to all who have posted or emailed me. Such is life I suppose.

I am not a dealer, but if I was, why would I care about you getting a knife or your money?
You have no idea if Brad owes these dealers or how much he owes them. If the only way to get their money is by selling his knives then that is what they are going to do.
Considering Brad's reputation and these type of threads, it is going to be tough to get top dollar for the knives anyway.

His stuff keeps selling, so they keep doing what they think the public wants... That being said, I have sure changed my mind about getting any of his stuff, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Dealers do check on stuff like this. (the smart ones anyway)

02-16-2008, 11:33 PM
Truth be told, nothing will happen... Dealers will still sell his stuff as long as people buy it and thus he'll still get paid. No incentive for him to change the way he behaves. He owes me $450 and it would cost me at least that much to sue him from half a country away. I suppose all anyone can do is bitch and maybe embarrass him through loud public confrontation at a trade show or two. I'd imagine a goodly number of collectors don't patronize online forums which means those folks would never know his background and order whatever of his strikes their fancy.

What I can't get is how this guy actually show up at Knife Shows after ripping all these people off. If you rip me off for $500 and I run into you, you got problems. And I am sure I am not the only one. How does he continue without physical retribution?
By the way, I was a big Duncan fan and owned several of his knives. I did have a knife on order forever that I never received but he didn't have any of my money so no loss there. I heard allot of stories a few years ago about him and this behavior is not anything new. A friend allot of us know was a dealer for him and had to go through hell to get his stuff to the point he gave up on him.
His brother Paul didn't fall far from the tree either. I bought a couple of Paul Duncan's knives and they sucked! I sold them all. One of the two was returned to me after an inspection period for a refund. I then sent it to Bob for a trade deal and he didn't want it after getting it in person and then after posting it back up for sale so many times, I ended hosting a giveaway with the damned thing just to get it out of my sight. The other one needed to be returned to Paul after I sold it for a tweak and it took nearly a year of constant bothering by the guy to get it returned and it was returned in the condition sent. At least he stepped out of the knife making business as I understand.
Brad has talent. But from what I understand he is not a knife enthusiast, just a really good machinist that figures he can make a living making knives. He appears to be unmotivated, disorganized, and has no quarrels with taking advantage of as many people as he can. If reputation means nothing to you, it allows you to do bad things.

I'm hoping that if it does get filed for a hearing, that Brad will be true to form and not show up and be found guilty. After that, just let the wheels of justice grind away until there's ultimately a warrant for arrest issued. Then, hopefully he attends a knife show in Illinois... :firedevil

For anyone who has paid out their hard earned buckwheats to Brad Duncan for one of his knives, has waited for an unreasonably long time and you haven't received it yet, you may want to read this. It's straight from the horses mouth. Below is the original thread from the BladeForums. He's had issues in the past and now he's got more issues. I was interested in obtaining one of his Aftershock models but after reading how he's treated his paying customers, forget it. I won't even buy one of his knives from the secondary market. I won't do business with assholes or own their products.

(Quote from Brad Duncan:)
April 22 2008
I am happy to say that I am leasing out my knives available page .
The knives on this page are not owned by me and they have nothing to do with my day to day order responsabilities.
Travis has no knowledge of my order list and he is not there to answer questions about your orders.
Please do not bother him with questions about repairs , orders or placing custom orders.
That is not what he is leasing the space for . His Sole purpose is to sell his collection and I was happy to help him .
He's been buying knives from me for a long time and when he says is ready to ship its ready to ship.
I am still not taking custom orders at this time. I m working on getting the back log I have done and finished.
Many of you may or may not know that I am going thru a really nasty break up.
I won't go into details but right now today and for the near future I will be putting all my efforts into making sure my 1 year old son is safe and being taken care.
Being a single father isn't easy and I know that I have a long road ahead of me. My son is the most important person in my life and sometimes in life you have to put your children in front of work for a number of reasons. I love him very much and I would do it all over again if it meant I had a son to share my life with.
On the other hand there are alot haters on the forums these days and I'm not going to even try to defend myself against all the bullshit I've heard.
The fact of the matter is I am way behind on orders, I stopped taking new orders and I have no intention of ever quitting the knife business. If anything , this has made me more determined than ever to push it right back in every haters face.
I have dealt with over 700 individuals and more than 2000 knives over the last 8 years and I have never not delivered a knife. Granted, I have not always got them finished when I said I would, but I always found a way to get it done.
At this time I will reserve the right to cancel any order where a customer has dragged my name through the mud on any of the forums with the intention to receive quicker service or make me loose business. I will find out about it and you can consider your order done if you participate in this childish behavior. By Done I mean you won't get a refund or a knife.
Many of you have been very patient and I'm very thankful.
I will deliver every knife I owe and I will not give you a time line but I will say that all my back orders will be finished this year and I hope by October.
I know who all of you are so don't think I've forgotten anyone.
Children and family are more important than knives and I am having to put these first for a while. I will never go away in the knife world so get used to hating me if thats what you're into.
Have a great day.

Someone needs to tell the fuckwit to grow up! His personal issues shoud stay personal. They are not relevant to any buyer.
Like you say Rickman, if you steer clear of anything by him and don't even touch the secondary market knives then the problem will disappear.

What an attitude...:ronl: I hope he sticks it to the wrong person and get's a "free vacation" in the gray-bar hotel for theft. Anyone that thinks they can just abitrarily keep a customer's money (in the absence of delivering a product) deserves every thing they get.
Bottom line is that it's not the fault of the customer that he took on too much work and has fallen behind. Fortunately, for people that see his statement - that will determine any possibility of future business.
And yeah, I can speak my mind on this since duncan has no money of mine nor will he ever see any business from me.

I won't do business with assholes or own their products.
That's the crux of the matter. I feel the same way as do I think many many others. I guess that's why it totally baffles me when I see knifemakers (a) Perform poorly, either in getting goods to people and/or in the quality of the product; (b) adopt bad attitudes whenever someone *dares* question them about it; and (c) have holier than thou attitudes and continue to defend themselves and blame everyone else for their bad attitudes.
It's not the first time a previously promising or even somewhat successful knife maker has become a "Legend in their own mind" and start treating people poorly and not meet their obligations..... and then turn around and have a shitty attitude toward the very people that keep them in business.... the customers!
Most of the time, unless those makers have something very very extraordinary to offer folks, their careers dry up and blow away.
As they should.
There are too many quality makers out there making really good knives for any of us to put up with arrogant, defensive, dishonest, flakey makers.
It is baffling to me that someone can become so miopic (or arrogant) that they don't understand this.
I also get tired of the "backlog" excuse being thrown around. It's funny, but all the truly successful makers I know, none of them *ever* bitch about their backlog or use it as an excuse for anything. Everyone already knows they are busy. No announcement is necessary. They just make sure to keep their customers well informed about the expected delivery time, and people happily wait.
Some people just don't handle success well..... and then they wake up one day and find out they are a has-been and can't understand why. Or they blame everyone else except where the blame belongs, and that's with themselves.

What sucks the most about all of this is the dude can make a hell of a nice knife. But his attitude towards the customer torpedoes it. When I was really buying up custom knives and started adding some Duncans to my collection, I arranged for at least two knife orders with Brad and was assured I was "on the list" That was 2-3 years ago?? That's alright, no biggie here. I just wish with the talent he has for knife making, that he would go to some business classes and work on his "people skills" \
His brother was even worse! Luckily he got out of knife making. Last knife I had of Paul's, a framelock I bought on Blade Auctions, was put on the block, returned for a refund after inspection, sent down to Texas for a trade and again returned and finally GIVEN AWAY on the forums.
Two Problems here:
Dealers keep selling his shit.
Buyers keep buying it.
If everyone says enough is enough the cycle will stop, finally!

Give them enough rope...
No need to go after unless you are owed, that's bad karma.
If you look at what has gone down here, it is a pretty sad story about a decent knife maker who has turned on the people who supported him in the first place. Look at all the forums now and you will see numerous people who have paid for product not received. Many of these buyers I have dealt with in previous sales and trades.
He has taken money from individuals and not delivered. Then provided knives to a few dealers to keep the cash flow going. Not sure what the connection is with his ex-wife but apparently she has taken some knives and tried to sell them on ebay. That is where I lose the plot.
If people make a conscious decision not to buy his product from dealers then perhaps this can be turned around. If you keep supporting the behavior by purchasing from dealers, there will be more horror stories posted later.

Brad has said that if anyone he owes badmouths him, they won't get a knife or a refund, basically he'll use it as an excuse to rip them off. He's a scumbag piece of shit thief, and his cunt wife is no better. I don't see how alerting people to that could be bad karma.

Right. So you are going to police the entire knife community? Then don't do it for just one maker that hits a sore spot. Boycott is fine but starting a negative advertising campaign when you have no dog in the fight IS bad karma.
It's no different than taking money and not delivering.
I know the backstory...like I said, give them enough rope... His own words and deeds will do more than your campaign idea ever will.

Yes, boycott ALL shitty makers.
No Campaign nor negative advertising campaign from me.
I just think people need to make a conscious decision when paying a dealer for a knife. If you do a quick search on dealer sites you will see who is supporting Duncan with multiple listings for his product. These same knives may have been intended for individuals who have paid him upfront a year ago for a knife. Is it fair not to support these individuals who frequent this forum or others?
Go take a look at CKG or BF and see the knife makers that are taking up the issue. There is always another version of a back story too.

Just to note, I supported Brad when this all first went down a few years ago. Since then I've heard he got better, than worse, than better, and now this.
Whatever, I gave him the benefit of the doubt once already and it's not my fight because I have no knives on order with him either verbally or paid for.
To me, it's would just be dog-piling unless I did actually have some active dealing on the line with Duncan.
Basically to avoid a 'flavor of the week' mentality of chasing after the latest poor knifemaker, I quietly let them hang themselves and simply don't buy their products. No bad karma for me and a lot less aggravation. :popcorn:

Here's my question, if he keeps your money for saying anything bad about him or his situation is the reverse true? So if I posted 20 time that he and his knives are great do I get a hefty discount or a freeone?
Never like to see someone go through a hard time and I know what it's like when you have deadlines and a level or workmanship you want to maintain. Shame it's not like it used to be were great or aspiring artists had patrons to pay their bills while they just got on with their art.
I would say if any of his customers have exhausted their patience with him and are at the point of smashing him on the forums then his last resort is to return to them their money minus material costs and shipping. That seems fair at least.
More room for the rest of the makers here then.

All he has to do his post on his website what quarter he is currently making delivery. No different than Randall Made Knives. All he needs to do is learn a little business common sense. Like the customer is always right et al. Its a no-brainer. He is only behind on delivery because of his failure to communicate. Like, "Duncan Knives is currently scheduling deliveries for the first quarter of 2013". Not shit like, "My life sucks and you will have to wait and like it". I guess he should return the money already sent except for a deposit amount with balance due before delivery. Just a simple business model would be nice.

Bet he can't. He has probably lost/spent it.
Otherwise he can clear things up in 1 month.
1. Contact everyone with a deposit and/or order.
2. Tell them the real world expected date for delivery
3. Provide written (e-mail works) agreement to deliver the knife or a refund by the date indicated in #2.
4. Offer anyone that wants out right now their money back
THEN once everyone has made their choice, announce that every prospective buyer was contacted and everyone is where they want to be. Like you mentioned, then give delivery dates and a date when new orders will be accepted.
It would have been so easy to clean up really, but again... I bet he does not have the money to allow him to take care of item #4.

I thought about the money being gone too, which amounts to thievery. Anyway, you can't run a successful business if you're dysfunctional to begin with. I deal with people like this all the time in my line of work. Some people have no business going into to business for themselves. It is just a recipe for disaster. Some people have enormous talent but get in over their heads when they decide to take that talent and try to make a living out of it on their own without any help or trying to take shortcuts by taking certain beliefs and acting on them. I've seen people that would be living comfortable today if they had only done something as simple as hiring a bookkeeper/consultant. Instead, they fuck themselves up and rip people off in the process. This guy may make a damn good knife but look where that has gotten him. Up shit creek without a paddle.
JD should sell T-shirts. One that says, " I Didn't Buy A Duncan Knife" and the other, "I Bought a Duncan Knife and All I Got Was This Fucking T-Shirt". The latter should be sold at cost or free with proof of purchase from Duncan Knives.

That's what I thought. You have to be damn low to use that as a shield against your obligations and to convince yourself it's called dedicated love.
I thought taking orders and money is entering a legal contract with performance fulfillment obligation within either promised timeframe or in case of unforeseen events within a reasonable time period. Threatening customers with non-fulfillment of said contract and not returning payment nor damages is illegal and will cost you a leg and an arm in court...

"The cause" being trying to get knives into the hands of collectors/buyers that have paid in advance for them and still waiting on them. Many have been delivered in the short time I have been associated with Duncan. But you don't hear from those individuals. I realize I walked into the middle of a verbal war and in doing so have taken the high road. Going forward I am attempting to help get most of this mess cleaned up. Really, this is not my fight. I see an opportunity to help friends get the knives they are owed and maybe help this maker get back on his feet. To meet that end I have been purchasing knives from Brad to provide him a cash flow that enables him to purchase materials ,etc and alongside my knives finish and complete orders all ready in hand. Simple economics, nothing sinister or underhanded, all on the up and up. Repairs and tune-ups are also being handled at this time. But of course we are not hearing the positive feedback on the forums that I am receiving myself. Maybe the best thing for Duncan to do is to go back to work as a machinist, give up knifemaking. With that option nobody gets their knives. I did suggest he explore the taking bankruptcy and Brad refused. He wants to make good on these orders and go forward. I am surprised that there really are not that many knives that he still owes for! There are a couple that go back not quite a year and most are from Oct-Nov 2007. The plan has been to get things caught up by Oct 1 2008. I have been out front in this adventure and done my best to keep a positive outlook through this battle. Brad not communicating with his clients makes matters worse. All I can offer to that is he has been through the ringer personally. Things are not going well on the homefront. He may be considered an asshole, crook, liar to many of you, and I also do not agree with how he has conducted business in the past, but I have not given him the chance to screw me and in doing so I feel I have some leverage in getting matters resolved.
My intent in brokering some of Brad's work is not to throw it in anyone's face. My hope was to offer his knives basically at dealer cost to get his work in circulation again. My reputation on the forums is spotless. As an oldtimer I don't spend much time here and am relatively new. I respect your opinions and anger at the chain of events. Believe me, I have dealt with knifemakers that were much more of a con and far less talented than Duncan. Some of those makers are still at it today and going strong! You may not agree with the path chosen to resolve matters but it is the only option I have been able to come up with!
I appreciate the support that has been received behind the scenes. My pencil sharpener is always at my side to make sure you get the best deal. JD has always been one of my favorite forums as there are so many members here which share my views outlook on life.
I stand ready to help in any way I can in getting the Duncan issues resolved!
Best to all,
Travis

Your attitude is very honourable Kougar. I mean that sincerely.
Unfortunately Brads attitude Stinks.
If he has these knives to sell on the open market then why should ANYONE still be waiting for their paid for knives to be delivered.
No more offloading Duncans on JD please.:signhere:

Exactly, and one only had to read his latest tirade to understand where he really stands :onoesdevil:
Do yourself a favor and distance yourself from him before your reputation starts to suffer from it also. Unless you're a relative of his ( I noticed you live in Plano) I can't understand your wanting to stick your neck out to help someone with such a dubious reputation Sir.

No I am not related to Brad and recently met him through a friend/client that is a prominent sports personalty in the area who collects Brad's knives. Personally I have no interest in "knife designers" as opposed to knifemaker that shun the CAD and CNC technologies. But the market place is crazy about this type of work. Brad is good at it. I see an opportunity to peddle and trade some knives while I am on my quest to complete my collection.

Not knowing him, but hearing of his knives I went over and we had a chat.

Can there be a happy ending to this? Doesn't look like it. Brad cannot just "go away." Not when this much money is flying around. He is toast. Even by some miracle, he gets caught up, the question becomes, then what? I don't see him getting any new customers. At this point, maybe he should go back to a "real job" and earn enough cash to give refunds to those who want them, and make knives for those still willing to wait, in his spare time.
If he stays on this path, he just might end up in jail, and then he will be no good to anybody. :mugshot:

Yes, buddy...Maybe you know, I even couldn't bear those censures on this guy before I got that encounter. I thought he perhaps had some trouble in his life and people could have taken some more patience to Duncan before to blame.
BUT guess what? This folder was made in 2001!!! That means Brad Duncan is always used to playing his customers.
I recently bought this Duncan folder from a friend and I don't want to get an embarrassment to this friend because he is also a victim of Brad Duncan.
Now I have to say Duncan is a knifemaker you can't trust. :pumpkin:

This is a real shame. I 1st met Mr. Duncan at the Central Texas knife show in 2005, he was very nice to me and I actually thought he was kind of humble :shockedevil:. The next year at the same show I saw a different Brad, I think he had one knife on his table that he said belonged to his Dad and he had the whole table full posters of the knife mag. articles about him and it was hard to believe it was the same person I'd met the year before.
I have no reason not to believe the things that are being said about him here, and I try not to like or dislike a person by what i read on the internet about them but he has condemned himself with his own words "By Done I mean you won't get a refund or a knife." (this quote being the worst of them IMO)
I think the knife mags unwittingly created a monster. Of coarse lots of makers get good coverage in the mags and don't go off the deep end, I guess Brad just couldn't handle it.
Hopefully he'll lose most or all of his business, hit bottom and grow up into a respectable man.

I will find out about it and you can consider your order done if you participate in this childish behavior. By Done I mean you won't get a refund or a knife."
I'm not a lawyer,but isn't that an outright declaration that he intends to rip you off if you drag his name through the mud?
To my knowledge,if you have an agreement with him,which can be shown in a court of law,(i.e. email/letters)that you've paid him for goods,it don't matter if you prance naked down the street with "Brad Duncan is a rip-off artist" painted on your body...he has a binding agreement to render unto you what he's been paid to,or tender a refund.

Travis/Kougar/cougar3677 is listing Brad Duncans on eBay on a daily basis. He claims those are new 2010 production. Indeed, they do not look like any of Duncan's previous work, actually they look like s***t.
Shouldn't those knives go to the customers he still owes money/knives to?

Okay, I see that these have all been merged - here's the copy from Travis's response to my query:
Dear h2htusk-chicago,
I think my feedback here should speak for itself! Yes this knife, as with anything I sell, is on hand and ready to ship. I have a spotless record both here and on the forums for prompt and honest delivery, despite the few blowhards on knife forums that disparage me otherwise. Previously I provided Brad an income through purchasing his production and marketing it while he worked on old orders as well. Unfortunately he made some bad decisions previously and I held him to account for 90% of his past orders. The few remaining are individuals that I tried to make arrangements with but their egos and tough words got in the way. At this point it is entirely up to Duncan to get caught up with those individuals and my focus is on bringing his new designs to market. The previous knife was flagged by one of the those buyers eventually reinstated after some investigating by ebay, thus you could not contact me on that one after it went down. Knife ended up selling within a couple hours of relisting! I am available any time through this message service and have a mailing list of buyers all over the world that can provide reference for me regarding Duncans and the many other custom knives I sell and trade on a regular basis. The period of 2007-2008 I sold aprox 250 of Duncan's knives for him. Without that support he never would have caught up the dozens of knives he owed to others. His old game is over and he gets paid when he delivers. I have been active in custom knives since 1976 and have never had to or prepaid for a knife, that includes Moran, Loveless, etc. These folks that prepaid were definitely making a high risk investment and we all know how that has played out lately!
Please let me know if I can be of assistance or answer any more questions. My hope is Brad will get the few individuals made whole on thier orders but at my age I can't afford to hold my breath on that one!
Thank you for your interest,
Travis

Don 't confuse caring about my customers with letting my customers take advantage of me, you know that is true! The forums are just a playground and a mutual admiration society with a mass circle jerk. Ironically, two of the three individuals Duncan owed knives to are from New York. You and that tough guy over at Three Stooges screamed, threatened, and libeled Duncan the most. Didn't work out too well did it? With all the talk coming from up north I figured you guys would have done something about that--down here we call that "all hat and no saddle". I got dragged into his fight when threats came my way not because I took responsibility for his lack of financial wizardry. My only concern is and has been going forward. Whether he chooses to ever make good on old business is entirely up to him.

I hate to read about what a scumbag this cat is. I do have one of his knives, and its sad to say, I love it. I can only imagine if he used normal business practices instead of being a complete scumbag, he could have really done well for himself.
One of the reasons i love it though, is because its a really nice custom made of carbon fiber, anodized titanium and a damasteel blade. I got it for dirt cheap so its cool to be able to throw a knife like that in your pocket and not give a fuk about using it. I gotta say too, its got a great action, its the sharpest knife i own and it doesn't seem to dull...anyways, what a asshat for taking advantage of so many people.
If you dont give a fuk about the man behind the knife though, a duncan on the second hand market might not be a bad idea considering how cheap they are...

He hasn't talked or seen our 2 daughters for a yr and he currently owes them about $17,000.00 in Child Support. Any help would be great. Thanks for your time. Now I am going to go look at knives lol.

At this time I will reserve the right to cancel any order where a customer has dragged my name through the mud on any of the forums with the intention to receive quicker service or make me loose business. I will find out about it and you can consider your order done if you participate in this childish behavior. By Done I mean you won't get a refund or a knife.

Nice choice of pocket clip, huh? I saw this one for sale on Ebay by none other than Kougar. I'm not totally familiar with Brad's work but does he always use that style of pocket clip?
yeap that's him, it is his clip , nobody ever argue that he made a cool folder, to bad he never made things right with people, his knives would be going for double the price.

Exactly!
You can't show up years after screwing people over trying to make amends and expect people to believe you, let alone welcome you with open arms.
What is he going to do, make you a knife/knives that isn't worth shit with his name on it?
Maybe he could stamp it with John Doe as the makers mark. :bwah:

Careful, now!
If he owes you anything, and sees you posting like that,
he won't give you the knives he owes you, or your money back.
Oh, yeah, I almost forgot, you won't be able to order any more knives, either!

LMAO!! I was lucky to get mine back from him when I sent it in to be serviced. After jumping through hoops and finally getting it back I promptly sold it. Not long after my incident with him all his thievery began coming to light. It burns me to no end that this happened to so many people!:balrog:

Did you call him or talked to him.?? He posted his # there, because I fucking did and told him where to go with his thieving ass and a lot other things which is none of your fucking business , he did not owe me a thing but you can ask stabber and others which received a call from me right after that one and all had the chance to talk to him, so next time you open your mouth find out what the story is.

Fire off all you want rio but the facts as I see it are pretty simple. You got on the phone with him and your balls dropped off. You never cut people like him any slack. Why? Because they just keep doing it. They piss all over the custom knife making community with their shenanigans. I wasn't one of Duncan's victims but I got took by somebody just like him. Do I know what you and ole Brad talked about? Nope. Do I care? Nope. But I know what I saw on the other forum. That is all. Again I reiterate,:devilfinger:

Instead of telling me what the fuck to do and pass judgment in what you saw why didn't you and your so big balls gave him a call ???? Because you nothing but a internet comando that talks shit without finding out the facts.A simple pm asking me what happen and I gladly would have told you, anybody that matters here did and they got the story.

You are 100% correct. I don't know the whole story, and without question my ignorance on the matter fueled this issue. Also, make no mistake Rio, our back and forth on this thread doesn't mean I dislike you. Your actions on the JD have always been honorable and above reproach. The wallet raping I took from Jack shitbag Crain has permanently jaded my compassion for anyone that does something shady. That's why I have no forgiveness for Duncan, or Will Moon, or Axel, etc......
I'm sorry for your bad experience and all others that had their good nature being taken advantenge of by this irresponsable bad business thieves, they get themselves on a hole and take others with them causing more damage than their stupid selfish asses know.This is a great community and you are a good member, I just took that response a bit personal and yes i was over the top, sorry.
