Man, I followed Atlanta Toxics and I always thought his work looked incredible. His wave toxic in particular is impressive, but christ... It's a shame, it sounds like he was being super unprofessional and was unprepared for larger amounts of work.
In my time modding, I have fucked up *once.* It was a stupid mistake that I overlooked in some finishing with an ano job because I was kind of rushing it to send the knife back before I left for vacation. Once the person DMed me and was like, "Hey, you fucked this part up, it's pretty unprofessional and doesn't match your history of work and reputation." I *immediately* was like, "I'm so sorry, I was in a rush and overlooked that, I can either fix it free of charge or give you a full refund, or even both if that would be better." When you fuck someone's shit up, you make it right, and you don't fucking *lie* about it. Atlanta Toxics did not make things right, and that sucks. If he wants to keep offering mod work, he needs to get his act together. Even more baffling that people are still giving him money after this, I wouldn't trust him at all.
He’s a lazy addict. They need to never attempt any mods ever again. They need to be a laughing stock never to be taken seriously.
And the toxic anos are cool but they do require polishing to look right and as demonstrated polishing is a problem for lil toxics. Andrew and NorCal do much much better toxic anos (the wavy ano you referred to)
@@intothebreak571 hell, even *I* can to wave toxic now. Once I figured out how, it wasn't that hard.
And that's why Solaire is the goat
@@camaroEE fr W solaire
This is literally my worst fear and why I can't bring myself to ever get mod work done by another person.
And yeah, I can 100% understand trying to keep it down lowish. I just have this terrible feeling of him saying, "woops, sorry for breaking your mako, and damaging your kraken, also losing your blade and hardware. Anyways I'll have this shipped by tomorrow." After you posting a little complaint.
At least at the end of this adventure, you found 2 great modders and got the kraken exactly how you wanted. And Mako untouched.
NorcalCustoms is awesome and such a great dude. I highly recommend you give him a shot. 10/10 great guy
Jesus Christ those "speed channels" tho...
So sorry this happened to you Ty, please don't feel bad about exposing Atlanta's unprofessionalism. This was really unacceptable behavior and I can only hope this was a wakeup call for him :/
Preach
he really got speedbump channels lmao
"have you ever been to eleh-men-tairy school where the taught you how to draw a circle and a straight line?" had me on the floor. sorry to hear about the whole situation
iv been thinking about getting my new tanto kraken speed channeled for a while, your bowie sounds awesome, and I see those handles went to some great use and look awesome!
Thanks for the heads up.
Yeah, i agree with what you said about live blades- i like the look a lot more and being able to tell immediately the side ur on, but i like to dull them because im just not super into cutting my flesh clean off if i make a tiny mistake while enjoying a hobby
oh yeah along the lines of that, you mentioned the live not even being able to cut you if you tried; i get how that works, but is it possible to do that to the tip too? so that it doesn't stab my hand if i mess up an aerial?
I use dogbite 3.1 bushings for all of my krakens, sometimes they come too small but you can buy ten of them for under 20 dollars and fine tune them.
That purple yellow and white keyboard is sick
Jesus Ty, this is actualy insane what he did to your kraken its kinda fked too tbh sorry ab your kraken but the damage has been done and Atlanta toxics has gone down hill from what I heard
Buckle in.
OMG, that sucks...an incredible story!
*a like for you and lots of caresses for Junior.
Bruh one time I cut my thumb so bad on my new rep that the only reason the blade stopped was because it hit my fingernail. I had to wrap it in gauze at first, then clean, then hold close, then bandage it because all the stores were closed so I couldn't get super glue. From that day on I try to get dull blades when I get customs, or I tape my blades, or I get a spare clone to dull the edge down on. I have a kid, so I especially have no desire to sustain a hand injury and have to go to the ER. I respect your dull knife flipping; Besides, they're still pointy enough, and I have yet to find one that I can't cut through packing tape with.
RIP to Atlanta Toxics. He will not be missed lmao
Brandon’s butter-fly knife looking real clean right now
I feel bad for you man I hope that you get what you deserve bro you need a break
how do you dull a live blade i am wondering ? :) i kinda dont flip my lifes cause they are sharp af..
30:12 aww junior sensed you seething with rage and came to calm you down
He should've absolutely replaced them with some calamari clearance handles at the very least, sucks to hear man.
Seriously, those handles are super cheap too, it's like thirty bucks to get two Kraken handles.
This is the correct answer and why he didn't do that is beyond me
@@camaroEE i don't think squid was offering them yet
this would have been an easy fix that would have mostly solved the problem. but instead, he kept my knives for another 3-4 months and didnt replace anything :) (he also lost my blade. and never included the hourglass blade he said he would include to "make things right")
He living up to his name fr.
7:05 true. never trust someone smoking out a dirty Gatorade bottle. Like the bottle thing is fine but geesh it’s a throw away bottle keep using fresh ones🤦♀️eww
Lol looks like my home made "ghetto" speed channels. I only used a drill, dremel, files, and sand paper. And no I would not do that to anyone else's bali or ever consider charging for it.
Usable yes.......beater yes...... proud of it........😅
Btw your speed channel v2.5 handles on an Hourglass blade recommendation is fn' epic. Puts up a real fight against the Kraken 3.0 trainer. So much so my 3.0 has been put away for the last few weeks.
Slayed
17:51 MY HEART
almost died (live, gone wrong)
Wow this is a looong one
This is actually disappointing news. This guys work appealed to me and I even believe Atlanta toxics did a collab with squiggle scales. Hearing about this is situation is actually really unprofessional and it was quite surprising to me.
Have you tried artsea nalbais trainer that's a dull blade
Yes there's a video on the channel already
its especially surprising when he messes up the speed channel cuts when there are lines on the original handles that can act like a stencil. He is also a "professional" modder that shouldn't even need those lines.
Despite everything I'm curious how you go from kraken trainer (most handle heavy kraken) to Bowie blade(most blade havey kraken) Think the Bowie flips weird then remove more handle material to fix the weird feeling lol, but fr tho I'm sorry you went through all that, bro just didn't care about running a real business
Hey man i post balisong videos but they keep getting rejected cuz of "Child safety" even when I say that its not made for kids..
His negligence towards not just you but all those customers is unacceptable; especially making you wait multiple months just to get an unfinished product and completely ruined handles. Sorry to hear that man.
love Junior
nice
4:28 ele-mentary lol
He got the DAWGS out
Completely off topic but there’s just something about silver balisongs… especially this silver bowie kraken
But damn him just sending those handles back is basically nothing in comparison to the kraken you sent him…
I would’ve sued
what happened to the hourglass blade
i have no idea. he never included it. even at the very end of this whole issue, he still fails to deliver on what he says he will do
@@BladeBias ouch that sucks. Im glad you took it like a champ.
That dude had my demon for MONTHS and kept lying about mod work and shipping it back.
This sucks that his happened to you but. WHOOO CAT CAMEOOOO
some people are just not meant to handle businesses
free feet
Watching this , while flipping my b+ silver kraken
Same but mine is orange
7:50 abject fecklessness is the term
That’s crazy and sucks
Damn sorry to hear this brotha, lucky it wasn’t me, if you sent the knives to him, there was an address that he must be at or at least visit frequently as it would be a trusted place if he is having hundreds of dollars of knives sent to him.
If I ever was in that position, being in my position me and sum homies are taking a flight 🤷♂️ nd im getting my shit back, im getting whatever he has to make right the fuck up, and the rest of what im owed…plane tickets included, gets paid out by the non-negotiable ass whoopin by me nd tha homies.
Fallow me for more simple solutions to modern problems 😎✌️
Always ted
the sad thing is he could definitely just make a new account and change his name and continue to mod peoples balis badly
Good luck getting any compensation for his fuck ups. The guys obviously got problems. Sometimes it's better to put shit behind you, learned a hard lesson and move on. This video is a good warning to others.
just got a metro, pray for me :(
I know this is a slightly serious video, but i completely spaced out and only focused on the cat.
i dont blame you
Junior is so cute
faxx
L = Atlanta toxics
Hate waiting
unrelated but does anyone else hate flipping after touching an animal with fur? like i love animals but my sensory issues scream in my face if i even touch a bali after touching an animal.
You sound so vexed in this vid and u have the right to be
Wonder if he lost business because of this vid
bro he is a joke in the community he ghosted a ton of people with pre orders and supposedly his dad had to get involved.
And the toxic regrinds 😂are toxic to look at🤮
Put socks on
Let the dogs be free
@@vicentenced no
@@Helloflippers but it's hot out here
Don't hold this man down, let his dogs be free
@@canaantravis I didn't expect the joke to keep on, this has gotta be a canon bit now
lol................
I won his first giveaway and luckily my intuition told me not to send him anything and I’m super grateful I didn’t, so many people have came out getting scammed by this dude and it’s ridiculous people still promote or buy his knife or anything at all, especially when they look like trash and his mod work isn’t ever finished or good… sorry you had to deal with that homie that sucks
btw splikz is a good flipper and may seem like a good person, but once you get to know him youll find out hes not as good, he tried forcing multiple people to be a different religion and is extremely homophobic.
He just serious about christianity and I’m not someone to judge their religious beliefs
@@DapperFlips im not either, i am pretty christian myself, but he tried getting others to be christian on discord and just says some hurtful things to people cause they are gay from what ive seen
I could do a better speed channel with my teeth😁
