Well, well, well, His Holiness rides back in on his high horse again to chastise, yet his hypocrisy knows no bounds:



I called for an integrity check and wa la, no can do huh Ron? Who actually brought you back into the fray after you asked me to keep you out? I don't see crutch tip in that quote above, do you? How about a nice post publicly asking if not telling your protege to keep you out! Be sure to threaten him also with disciplinary action by the moderators.

Nevertheless, your previous posts are in the subject line and therefore are fair game. You can hide under your desk and put on this facade of takin the high road, but your veil is pierced, and it is out there like it or not. Sad thing is using your gut the first time you were correct in your assessment of your model 3 sheaths. You knew MJ made them by looking at them.

Then you swallowed hook, line, and sinker, a theory that has since been proven un-true, but you were already committed. You wanted it to be true. You needed it to be true. There was no turning back as you thought the Ark of the Covenant had been found, and Ron Mathews, the white knight, was gonna deliver the goods to the collecting community that was salivating for answers. Talk about ego.

All the while you were assassinating my character (still are) and quesitioning my knowledge/judgement because I was not willing to immediately be a lemming and jump on board what ended up being a sinking ship.

Then, to take advantage of newer collectors like you have done is unbecoming in the least. In your zeal to be the anointed one, you gave them the stamp of approval using your position as a known collector to lend credibility to the case. This done without you fully vetting the claim, and they ran with it. Shameful. This should be between two old time collectors, not relatively newer guys being used to tow the line in a convoluted attempt to insulate yourself from the mere appearance of impropriety. What happened to you?

I will let this go to one thing and I can’t repost these photos that are very clear because this forum will not accept the file size. So I will provide the link for your convenience, because I care.

The first four posts contain all you need to see, but I welcome you to review the thread as if you haven't already. If you can tell all on this forum that there is no difference in the sheaths posted as I have identified them, as Tune identified them, as GC identified them, as YOU identified them, then you are intellectually dishonest and a hypocrite - again.

I know you, and I know when you look at these photos you are gonna know in your heart of hearts as you say, that the sheaths are from different makers. Are you able to admit that?
