DBA hjk1989 - who is this guy?

[Arakiel]

Anyone done business with this 'bay seller: hjk1989
Seems to be doing a ton of business. Anyone know which factory it is in Taiwan?
Any impressions on the products or buying experience if you have made a purchase?
Thanks.

Thanks for the heads up. Will do next time. I'll contact an admin.

Please do not use the General Knife Discussion forum for this type of thread.

Ok, now that the issue is fixed, any thoughts?

Well, I was curious so I checked. I saw various obviously copycat knives, including a sebenza lookalike for $20 and several poor Extrema Ratio copies.
Thus, in general, do not assume that you'll really receive the famous brand.

He's selling stuff made in China, not Taiwan. The cost of labor is much higher in Taiwan so I suspect he is just importing knives, might even have a retail store that he sells from in Taiwan. Looks like his aim is to sell his stuff to Europe, not US.

He does have 100% positive ratings, so as long as you don't mind buying knock-offs...
