I don't agree that STX is the bad guy. I can see where the "dirty rush" advertising doesn't sit well, but its Cascade that certified a product that didn't make the NOCSAE grade. Sure, STX stands to benefit and sure STX called attention to the problem, but still, they didn't create the problem. The R didn't pass NOCSAE's own testing and from what I read, Cascade couldn't produce the paperwork from its own testing to show where it did. I believe the NOCSAE standard that the R failed had been in place since 2004. I don't see where STX is guilty of anything but perhaps bad taste.
