I thought the original price of this knife was a little too high, but that is probably what Mike was getiing for his knives. The price that Nordic Knives sold the Williams bowie for for was really low, but worked out great for Peter. The price that Peter sold the knife for was a little low, but considering the return he got, and the fact that he wanted the money for another knife, he did well. The price it is at now is once again higher than it should be, in my opinion, but Mike obviously feels differently. If it doesn't sell at the current price you will likely see it on his make an offer page.
Hopefully nobody took my comment to Mike about my understanding why he thought this thread was hot air as a dig at him; it wasn't. All I was referring to was that this thread had questioned his business practices, and that I could honestly understand why he thought this thread was hot air. He was upset, and rightly so, once again in my opinion.
I don't purchase from dealers, so take the rest of this as just being my thoughts. A return policy that allows enough time for me to inspect the knife would be important to me. I may never need it, but if I did, I would only purchase from a dealer that had this policy. Offering everything paid for a knife on a trade-up would also be something that would make me feel better about purchasing from a dealer. Again, I may never use it, but I just might.
