Muyshondt has really disappointed. I will never buy from him again. Am I wrong here?

Remember when this wouldn't have met the criteria for a "Jeer" thread and would have been locked? Back when you didn't need a supporter subscription to start a Cheer or Jeer? (General Marketplace, I find I have insufficient priviliges there.) 🤣 Oh well, at least it adds to the post count I guess. Good times.
 
I'm hoping next time someone new comes on the forum with a technical question, a couple of us can hold down any of the regulars who starts going on some tirade about some profession until at least after the concern is addressed.

That whole comment about periodontal disease was rough but we got over it. Thankfully this forum is not owned by the loony billionaire… or is it?

Chinese knives have gotten really expensive over the past few years. Labour costs are getting higher in china aswell & even they eventually have to face reality when it comes to production & labor costs. They've also noticed that they can match or exceed quality of European & American manufacturers and that westerners are willing to pay a premium. The times of cheap products made in china are nearing an end. Ive been quite shocked recently to see European & American knife makers sell their products at lower prices then the Chinese competitors using the same materials. Chinese economy isnt doing nearly as well as many people think & its only getting worse.

If costs to manufacture are rising in China, it would be nice if Spyderco brought manufacturing back to Golden, CO.
 
ああああああああああああ。。。。。。。In other news, my copper Maus is still functioning as well as the day it first arrived! :party:
 
Maybe you should go with Reylight. I bought one of Rey's copper lights and never had an issue. The price point is very fair too.
 
It may be too late, but I think I understood what the TS problem with the flashlight was. I ate something wrong and sat in the WC. I had nothing to do, and to ease the suffering, I twirled the Lumintop Tool Copper AAA in my hands. I remember that Lumintop also made twisty lights for Maratac as for Muyshondt. That is, switching modes is also through the twisty of head. What I see is an aluminum pill, a copper body, in theory it should be on constantly, but it switches when the head is unscrewed or turns off. I looked even more closely. This is the same system as on McLux flashlights from Don @McGizmo many years ago or his current AquaRam. There is a dielectric gap between the outer ring of the board, which can be seen, and the pill. If something electrically conductive gets into this gap, the lamp will burn constantly. But Don has a huge gap there and I can't imagine what could linger there + everything is visible to the naked eye

That is, the "+" battery is constantly connected to the driver, and the moving threaded part of the battery tube closes the external ring on the board with "-". If something conductive, such as a piece of shavings (white slash), gets into the gap inside the greenish circle, then the flashlight will burn constantly

or it could be an unremoved burr from a piece of foil from "-" of driver

Unfortunately, I only got the copper Lumintop a couple of weeks ago, and before that I didn't have flashlights of this design, so I didn't know how they work
