Mike Payne has come through again!

Will.223 · Apr 9, 2001

I got his permission to use his full name in this post. I'm not going to advertise just exactly what he did for me, but let me say that if you need a certain knife, or you have to have a certain knife, or you feel like if you don't get a certain knife RIGHT NOW IN YOUR HOT LITTLE HANDS, OR YOU WILL DIE!...Mike Payne is your guy.

Give him a try. It seems that Mike would do nothing short of walking bare-foot over broken Budweiser bottles to get you the knife you want, need, desire, will die without, etc...

I MEAN it! Trust me on this one.

Well...I'd have to think about that! My wife of 23 years might object to that one! If I did take him, would that mean I get HALF of his knives in stock?

However, in all seriousness, a dealer like Mike is a special breed. It seems like the sales people where ever I go get angry if you ask for even the smallest "extra". Like a gift box or an extra bag is a life or death thing. WAY too much trouble! With Mike, great service is part of the sale. I don't even believe he thinks about it. It just comes naturally, as part of the deal. It's kinda easy to get carried away with that kind of service and actually begin to expect the people behind the counter who take your money to treat you well also. (Fat chance of that

)

Mike Payne is the person to buy from! When I decided to take the sebenza plunge, Mike was the first dealer I contacted. I got my special request taken care of even faster than I hoped. It was the "funnest" time I have ever had buying a knife. Mike get's a five star rating.
