How much advertising do those vendors pay for in F&S or its parent company publications?

It was the November 2015 edition of Field and Stream.

And it was the CVA Optima V2, The Knight UL, The LHR Redemption (Now known as TC's Strike), and the Traditions Vortek Striker Fire. And it wasn't from Nov. 2015 but from Nov. 2013 (did a full scan of all publications of reviews just in case Google missed something)
You cant argue what they said about CVA at all.

Anybody who's looking for a basic but very good in-line that is an unbeatable value.

In most cases, these people don't know what they are doing anyway. Its all about the sponsor/money. The best way is to test them yourself!!

Im sure if knight had won any of the F&S awards, those writers would have been extremely correct in every word and every test they conducted

I don't think Bronko's wrong. He said 2015 and he mentioned different gun then supplied in this article. He cant be that old, I say he saw something else. Plus he said Break opens as well. The Ultralite and Vision aren't no way the same.
