There are hundreds of knives being sold on Bonanza.
I guess a competitor reported it.
I guess Bonanza did not bother to look at MY item.
I guess I will take MY item off, while OTHERS can sell THEIRS.
Very disappointed w/ Bonanza today.
I removed my item but have no idea WHY I had to.
Any ideas ?

Bonz has an automatic keyword search program that kicks things out.. knife is one of them (however knives usually passes..)
Examples of the keyword trigger is Dickens as in Charles Dickens or the Dickens Christmas decorations because of the word dick…others that get an item kicked out is Assembly, Assortment because of ass…
I have an action figure that gets kicked on occasion because of the word slave (as in Star Trek Orion Slave Girl from the episode “The Cage”)…it is there then after some editing and updating it get kicked out…again

OH NO. Knifes are treated as WMD’s here. Not allowed (even though they are all over from other sellers. I learned by trying to sell an antique multitool keychain that had a (seriously 1/2 inch blade in it) and it was not allowed. Dont try to list it again and move on otherwise you will get tagged…
