I just had the pleasure of purchasing a small Japanese wharncliff from Josh, I couldn't be more pleased with what i received. I had noticed he had a few for sale back on July 4th, one thing led to another and I didn't respond to the sales thread. I contacted him a few days ago asking if he had any left, luckily he did. Josh was great at answering all my questions and agreed to hold the knife for me until I returned from vacation. He shipped very quickly upon my return. I have purchased several custom knives for significantly more money that come nowhere near the level of craftsmanship that Josh's knife does. I havent put this knife down since receiving it. Josh and I have discussed what will be the 2nd of many more purchases to come, I could't recommend a maker any more than Josh. If you see one of his knives up for sale, don't hesitate.
