Ordered a ferrum forge stinger on Feb 12th. Still hasn't arrived yet. Tracking says still in route but running late for the last 5 days.... I know we had some ice storms but USPS has been awful the last 2 months. Anyone else waiting for a knife to ship?

I've had a bad couple weeks too... just had a knife arrive a week late... almost everything I have shipped has been running around 5-7 days late too :-/
 
I recently sent a multitool across the country via priority mail, and its arriving (at best) about 5 days late. It took a southern route through Texas, so I can (sort of) understand the delay. But the USPS has not been awesome over the past few months.
 
It really must depend where you live. I ordered a knife on Tuesday morning from Indiana with free USPS shipping and it’s out for delivery today here in Seattle area. Two days. Exceptional.
 
I ordered from Knife Center on 2-13(sat) shipped Monday had weather delays, so it just hit the box today and I'll have it when my wife grabs the mail.
Normally I've not waited more than a week even through Xmas. Longest wait so far was sat order and fedex del on the following Sunday . So I'm not complaining .
 
Package shipped feb 9. delivered today, feb 25. Half a month minus a day.

2x carothers dek1, pirtle sheath.

Yeah, that's the longest ups delivery ever, for a 3 day delivery (in non-snowmageddon time).

It had been back to normal for me, but I have an outbound package "arriving late":(
 
Yes, both USPS and UPS have been slow the last two weeks. Judging by tracking info, stuff is slowly picking up since Mon.

Soon as they posted the marble CF I ordered. Figures the knife I wanted to get i can't get. Since then I've had a kizer clutch, civivi elementum, and qsp hawk show up. Doing some testing. Those knives showed up 3 days after ordering.

UPS been 2-3 days for me on shipping. If I have a option I'm doing UPS from now on. Saw something on news that the head of USPS may be fired? That he's making cuts and it's costing shipping delays everywhere
 
Lynch clips sitting in Spokane WA since 02/13 ordered on the 9th
Knife coming from MO sitting in KC since 02/23
I’m in NC
The expected delivery on priority means NOTHING
 
I had a package sit in Cincinnati for 31 days.before it finally moved on and the sat in Manhattan for another8 days! Talk about sour I was wiggin out!!! No excuses ever given either!
 
I have a fed ex package sent from CRK that has been sitting in Memphis Tennessee since Sunday 21st. Was supposed to be delivered the 17th.
 
Waiting on USPS PACKAGES coming and going. They seem to be on the ball with letters.
Packages, in the last 6 months maybe 2 in 10 have arrived on time as opposed to UPS or FedEx I’d say less than 2 in 10 arrived late.

ETA: and their tracking absolutely blows
 
I didn't have a bad experience with USPS during the holidays like many, but now it's worse than I've ever seen it. I had a knife delivered today, which was a surprise, since tracking says it's still pending acceptance in Michigan. I have several other packages that are 3 and 5 days late.

Amazon deliveries have been coming on time, even through the USPS
 
USPS is still delivering packages from 2020. I have one from VT now stuck in NY since 10th Dec. 2020; another one was stuck as well since 9th Jan 2021. Guess what, I've moved to a new place. :cool:
