Jealousy no doubt. They thought they were the reason folks turned in; or the cheap Chinese/Pakistan cutlery . I wonder how much Tom was making in relation to the other hosts? I liked that guy, he was self effacing which no way in hell are the other hosts.

This new guy seems to be doing just fine, has a flair for it. Might even be a Veteran, about the first to host CCN. Let's wait and give him a chance, he'd of given Ton one

Anyone hear anything about Tom O'dell? what is he up to these days? I reckon he'll go back to selling coins on the TV Coin Network, that is where he go his start.

Well let us be honest here, and this is coming from a fan of Tom's, this is afterall a niche' market and a bit outside mainstream entertainment.
I been wondering, IN today's world of polices any ONE can be fired for ANYTHING, except union people and teachers. BUT THIS NEW GUY, IS NOT VERY GOOD...HE SUCKS. I COULD BE TWICE AS GOOD. I'VE BOUGHT THOUSANDS DOLLARS OF KNIVES....NOT ANY MORE!! Plus orders been screwed UP allot!!!
Received less than what was advertised. New dude SUCKS!!!

Michael Prater who stands about 6'6" and weighs over 300lbs is on thee shoe tonight, he was a good buddy of Toms. Be funny if he went ballistic over Tom's firing and tore the set apart, threw Todd through that fake window in the back. shoves one of those "cattle prods" they sell up Todd's butt. No doubt Tom's firing was collusion

Things they can't say on CCTV because they were Tomisms: "Big uns", "The corner store", "In the House!" "Has Jim frost gone crazy?" "Back in the day" "Punk" "Jim Frost is a cheap skate".

Bob is the supervisor of sales on night shift.
Tom and Shelia are not related.
It was NOT a mutual decision for Tom to leave, he
Was completely blind sided.
They laid off SEVERAL employees that had been with the company for YEARS.
SO DISAPPOINTED IN JIM FROST, HE IS NOT THE PERSON THAT YOU SEE ON T.V.....

Who is that guy who has been appearing with Sheila, not Bob another fellow. He appears a bit slow and not familiar with the products. Is he a proxy Tom?

I just hope Tom is OK, he is a sensitive man, I know he used to get upset when Frost took folks fishing, and never included him. I'd be pissed too!

Only to a true knife fanatic who would even care or know who Jim Frost is.To the average consumer, it will not be worth anything.

So I still get emails from CCN, and the latest one is titled "Get a Load of This." Now that was a Tomism if there ever was one and you know they are aware of this. I guess they are trying to invoke the spirit of Tom O'Dell to help their sales...

Todd is getting fat, stress? They do seem to have invoked a "O'dell touch" lately, I notice the guy who replaced him is trying very hard to be witty. Jim Frost looks like he shrunk about 3 inches, good luck to him, he must be hurting from his recent surgery, all in all he is a decent man.

I noticed that they are selling more and more so called "warehouse finds" lately, what kind of sloppy accounting goes on now that Tom was canned? Did Tom also work as a distribution supervisor? The whole warehouse must be going to pot now that Tom's "iron fist" is not around to keep things ship shape.

We all make mistakes but older people need to be appreciated more in this world we live in. Two years ago I lost my job after 19 years of service to a large propane company, they wanted to consolidate my plant with another 22 miles away and my choice was given go to the new plant until I turned 62 with a pay cut and a demotion from manager to driver and no servants pay when I had to leave in which it would only be in 8 months or second choice voluntary resign with servants pay and sign a two year no compete that I would not go in business against them. I took the second choice and my two years no compete was up this last June 5 and now I started a propane company against them as my competitor in which I plan to turn it over to my sons. I can only say the titanic was made by professionals and the Ark was made by amateurs, Good luck in the future TOM you are missed !

Todd Boone always says on a fixed blade knife that goes for like $10.75 or !11.00 bucks, "The leather sheif alone goes for about 10 bucks!!". Does that mean the knife is worth .75 cents or a buck???

It is a pretty funny show with those 2 guys that replaced Tom, Bill and Buzz Parker, Buzz plays the dumb retarded sick maladjusted one but believe me, he is not half as bad. Anyone know where Tom is now?

I have not heard anything if Tom is doing another show. What I find odd and a bit disingenuous, is that the CCN YouTube homepage still has Tom pictured in the group photo.

I wonder if he works at the Knife museum down those parts. He certainly knew the history of knives and the craft itself. No doubt he taught Sheila all she knows.
I just watched about 15 minutes of the show tonight
and it was that Tod guy and some other guy trying
To imitate the real knife guy Tom Odell from
years ago. I got so pissed at their trying to
Imitate Toms selling tichniques , that they
failed really bad at ,
I changed
channels. The show now is crap and
not interesting at all.No more buying
from these folks.

I noticed that also. They are trying to induce a comical relief that Tom was good at, never happen, Tom was the best. Both those guys couldn't make a pimple on Tom's butt. The big guy is a kiss ass, he calls Jim Frost "Jimmy"

Be funny to see ole Tomboy do a "pay per view" special on a parody of selling knives on TV to Rednecks; then hold a serious discussion on knife quality and the "Saturday Night Specials" applied to knives.
Sheala Travis is the daughter in-law of Tom O'dell. Sheala is married to Toms Son.
I heard he was a heavy drinker at one time and got it under control, maybe not.

I came across this thread after seeing a video of Tom on YouTube. I used to love listening to him late at night and was trying to find out what happened to him. Definitely wont support anything to do with Frost if they don't bring Tom back and I'll personally tell every knife buyer I know to stay away from them and all costs
Cannabis now can be the next Alternative medicine that can relief pains, lessen the seizures and can be infused in your dishes, I tried frozen yogurt infused cannabis before and it really tastes good! and now, there’s new and something interesting! On the other hand, Ingesting Cannabis has a side effect that can lead you addiction because of its high dosage that you’ll never know how much dosage that food has.

Tom has been gone for a while. Wonder what he's up to? If anyone has news about this good human being please post. He was the best!
I just wanna share my experience in medical marijuana and it helps me deal with my health conditions. I’ve been suffering from chronic pain for how many years, but then when I learned that medical marijuana can help and cure sickness such mine like this article about marijuana kylekushman.com/topic/budworms/ and THC They are also new to me and I do not even smoke. If this is true I can not find any solid conclusive evidence that speaks to its efficacy.

Most of the knives they sell are made for offensive weapons. Who needs a knife the size of a machete in the cities? Knives should be limited to 5 inches. Crazy knives.

They say Jim Frost built a Knife Empire comparable to great companies like Colt, KaBar, Buck, and Case, selling knives from his lunch pail at work. I call bullshit unless the company was the size of the Pentagon. Cutlery Corner myth

Long live Tom O'Dell ... the wild man of crappy cutlery. Jim Frost will burn in hell for eternity, sitting on the banks of the lake of fire, wishing Tom O'Dell were there to fish for demons with him, but alas... Tom O'Dell will be at the right hand side of The Lord in Heaven with Shawn Leffler selling swords to the Seraphim. Amen.

Who is Buzz Parker? Is he a relative of Parker Knives? I wonder if Tom was fired to give Buzz a job. Like what happened in Godfather 2. Don Corleone was fired as a young man so a Mafia's son could take his job.
