Lol yeah I know everyone got a little pissy with the Uber knives guy for his language. But as a person who isn't opposed to peppering my speech with the occasional four lettered expletive I didn't really mind his post. Obviously he was just trying to be funny. To answer your question I did in fact buy it from Uber knives. It was that thread that got me to notice the knives in the first place. I have nothing bad to say about the service from them either. In fact quite the opposite. They shipped within a few hours of my order, I received tracking info, then I got the knife two days later. Really nothing to complain about. I have to admit that this was a pretty spur of the moment decision to buy one. But I did spend a few hours on youtube and the net researching before I ordered. Regardless of how you feel about Uber knives or that post they did give me good fast service so no complaints here.
I actually can imagine how some people may not like the looks of these knives. But personally I think they're beautiful and a steal for the price. I've owned, held, used, and passed over a whole lot of high end knives in my aproximately 25 years of knife collecting and these knives are very well done. What I got is considered a mid tech and it's as nice if not nicer then a lot of full customs out there. The fit and finish is just exceptional. Every little corner is rounded perfectly. He took the time to go inside the holes and polish the inside walls. A lot of work went into this thing. Even the color of the anodizing is beginning to really grow on me. It's also hands down the sharpest knife I've ever recieved. Anyway if you like the designs I'd say get one. If Uber knives rubbed you the wrong way try a different dealer or contact andre directly on facebook. One way or another I think we'll be seeing a lot more of this guy's work. I will probably also pick up a custom pathfinder from him sometime soon.
