Doesn't look like anyone else has received a refund yet. If it doesn't happen by tomorrow then Allan will be not be keeping to his schedule. Who'd of thought that would happen?

We're here. Just patiently waiting to hear what excuse Blade will use this time.
I wonder how many new slats he's had to add to his "Spin the Wheel."

Remember, people are at the mercy of "Blade's Cosmic Calculation Timetable."
In said novel. . . . .one day = one month.
In theory, for normal people, one week (seven days) would equate to seven months.
But Blade stated "the week after". . . not "in one week," which permits / produces variations. One such variation is "Blade Wiggle Room". Simply, "the week after" what. . . .was not specified.
Christ, I wish that I would have purchased the "Rules Table" that goes with the "Cosmic Calculation Timetable."

Still nothing from Allan. Another week will soon be gone. He really is good at keeping his word, isn't he?
I popped in there this morning, Phil, and you're correct. . . .no new posts.
Popped in moments ago. . . . .and rut-ro (in my best Scooby-Doo voice). Seems to be some confusion as to who's next for a knife and or refund. Jezzzzz, how can that be ?
I think Blade could screw up boiling water !

Looks like there is a bit of stirring on BB now, just don't get why these guys are'nt a little more agrivated. British reserve, scared of being banned, what????
When I had my run in with another (in)famous maker of great knives, I was all over the 'net until I finally provoked a response, goods arrived shortly afterwards.

Time is an advantage for Conmen and they love to manipulate it.
For example, they want to get in and out with the frog skins as quick as possible. On the other hand, they want to put as much distance, time wise, between the initial tag and present.
I believe that there are several things that attracted Blade to them. . . . (1) they were more than happy to accept a "named" maker, (2) British reserve, (3) physical distance, and (4) time.
#1 and 3 was a cake walk. Blade tested the "time" factor very quickly and is still able to use it and #3 to his advantage. #2 is quite evident.

Another week starts without a word from Allan. He'll probably appear in a week or two to let everyone know that he has no record of when they placed their orders, and ask then to contact him so he can figure out the order that he should be sending out refunds.
