i do take deposits, but i learned that there are some styles that just dont get done ever! so i dont take orders for them. like daggers/autos to me have one purpose and it is not in me to make a knife that is good for nothing but sticking people. i do make camp/fighters because they have plenty of other uses and of course you can defend yourself with any knife. daggers and autos are just B.S. to me . i have had orders take from the three to the ten months myself, i tell customers that i will do my best on the time promised. but i am not a machinist i am a knifemaker and if it is not coming out the way i want it the best thing to do is put it down and do something else. and rather than things go sour i return deposits if asked. because i have found once they aare unhappy they don't seem to get over it! just a few thoughts on your questions.
