Hello,

I'm putting this one up for grabs.

A hair over 7,5" of blade (195mm) made from O2 steel, 0,25" thick.

It was a comission but I guess client lost interest in it. It was finished at the beginning of december 2022. Guy told me that he's waiting on his Christmass bonus. Few weeks passed, he decided that he have enough money to get two knives and been waiting for two different knives I was making to come up( but still could have paid for work I already did for him and wait with shipping for another one). He didn't like first knife. Then, ignored me on second and I sold it. Then he came to me with covid excuse as a reason of lack of contact and being unable to pay for comission. I agreed to wait a little bit more so he can get money for this comission. On march 13th, he was ready pay up but I was busy with work and couldn't get it shipped until 20th-21st of march. He told that it sounds good for him, and then, did nothing about it. No payment, or contact whatsoever. At this point I don't care if guy is honest or not, just don't want to deal with him anymore. Guess my "no deposit policy for comissions" should be a privilege that is earned.

Knife is in mint condition. Sheath got kinda loose after all this time but it has retention strap anyway so I don't consider it as a flaw. It's just easier to pull the knife out.

I'm asking 1600PLN(PP fees and shipping included), it's equivalent of ~387 USD

Best regards,
Lucas
 
Damn fine display of craftsmanship!!!!

As far as the commission--er, his loss many fold......

I really think you and your fellow knife makers should have and share A BLACK BALL list.....This way the knuckleheads can be identified and IGNORED....

Again, nice work.....
