After months of self-torture, looking at hundreds of models of custom and production knives, I settled on a Fiddleback Kephart in, 1/8" O1 steel, taper tang, bloodwood handles with thick natural liners and thin white liners from the knife connection. This was the most expensive knive I'd ever bought by a large margin.
I excitedly anticipated it's arrival yesterday, and I was disappointed. The U.S. postal service lost my package.
They delivered it somewhere, but it wasn't to me. This is especially frustrating because I live 1 block away from the post office, and I could've just as easily walked over and picked it up.
I called the post office, and the woman literally told me "I don't know what to tell you, maybe he delivered it across the street."
So, in closing, my first Fiddleback purchase was a huge letdown. Hopefully my second one will be better. And hopefully the knife connection will offer me a refund.
