Kirby at http://www.lambertknives.com is an awesome guy, and a fantastic knifemaker!
I have purchased a knife from him in the past, and my second one is just about done.... but here's the story:
I just received a package of a couple knives from Kirby that he helped me beadblast since they were getting scuffy. He did this for a very nominal fee, and sent them back to me a few days later... excellent job! My sebenza is now re blasted with a fine blasted finish that looks superb! And guess what, Kirby even sent me one of his Titanium rings in the package as a Christmas gift to me.. what a guy!
That's not all... the knife that will be arriving was a bit late... about a month and a half. Kirby got in a car accident... stuff happens, right? I see tons of makers here that get behind on orders and sometimes are 6 months late or more!.. but Kirby felt so bad about the delay that he took it upon himself to send me a free neck knife! And let me tell you, the grinds and finish on that knife are SUPERB.
This may sound like a bit of a advertisement but its not.. i am just so amazed with the level of customer service and quality from him that i will definately be back for more knives.
Its rare to see this level of service from a knifemaker.. very rare. Thanks Kirby if you read this!
