2 weeks is reasonable for shipping delays unless it was coming in from out of country, but the lack of communication is still worthy of a GBU thread.
which maker?

I'll PM you the maker...I don't want to start flaming him just yet...
 
Two weeks is too long unless there was something decided upon beforehand IMO. Post something in the sale thread, maybe his email is down??

He got paid on the 16th (Saturday) and said he would ship it on the 18th (Monday). I should rephrase though...I've been sending him PM's, not emails. And he has been on BF since I've sent them ...as I've been watching the Last Activity on his profile. He's ducking me...
 
Seems like it. I would post in the sale thread on the lack of communication first and give him one last chance to respond. Most have pms set up to their emails anyway so that would rule that out.
 
So I ordered in a fallknniven s1 for a guy who wants some work done, They sent me chucky the demon fallkniven s1 with a lightsaber convex edge from hell. Not even out of the box 2 minutes and cuts me straight to the bone while I am comparing it and the a1, holding 2 knives in one hand like a genius the s1 slips and gravity takes a pinky to the bone. All 4 of those falls I have gotten are the same way, scalpel sharp. About ready to start rounding them off.
The wife is now pouting, she would rather give me lecture about germs and stitching it up and what not like only a nursing student can instead of handing me the super glue before bleeding out. Apparently wounded gnomes are mean, Have to go flower shopping later. And to top off the day I have to declare my leatherman skeletool officially lost after a week of searching, haven't lost a knife in 20 years and only had this one 4 months, poof, gone. I hate all fallknivens and skeletools today.
 
Is the Lansky 3 piece standard sharpener any good?

It's ok, I have had a set for a long time but upgraded last year to a set of the 2x8 lansky diamond stones. Those will put a heck of an edge on stuff, I use them on alot of my punches and things as well.
 
Too good not to repost...

Are we still playing "My breakfast is better than yours"? Benton country ham, eggs with Tabasco, rye toast, sharp cheddar. Take that.

Derek asked how the ESEE3 measures up against the BK16. 16 is still my daily.

i keep one of my BK17s in my mtn bike hydration pack

the 15 and 16 regular rock my kitchen, and the 16 is more likely to hitch a ride out the door

pretty much not needing any more knife than that lately

though if i buy a house, a chopper might get some use...
 
I did beat aroundvwith the Machax on some oak in the fire pit this weekend. Took the Junglas too, it never came out of the sheath though.

Don't go getting blood on my sheath! :D

Seriously, I hope you are okay! I had a gf do that to her pinky once, and the recovery process was not fun for her. Surgery to reconnect tendons, physical therapy, etc :eek: Hope you are back to as good as new soon! :(

To keep the damn kids off your lawn?
Good luck with the house hunting.
