Liadou winemakers knife .

Restlessly waiting for my Liadou -altough it's the smaller inox version, so no patina, and no arrival... Chronopost boast about 2 day delivery in the EU, oh yeah? Been 9 days now and bizarre tracking. For non Europeans, Finland in NORTH of France, packet would normally go to Paris then Copenhagen/Stockholm- Helsinki. Mine went EAST to Austria...stayed 3 days (but I thought, it will go North to Berlin) Uh uh, off to Netherlands where It's allegedly been put on trucks AND planes plural. Odd that as NL is a small country and if you fly you soon leave it in minutes reaching Belgium, France, Germany the sea...Not my packet.

I contacted the seller in France, he very helpful and dismayed, said he's making a complaint and that the packet is insured etc so I will get a knife, but when? Plus when you're struck with knife fever the waiting could send you over the top

And here's some patina to keep on track (ing...)

Great looking synth stag on that patina’s RR Will Power . They do such a nice job on those old school match strike nail nicks, too.
I finally decided to start the natural patina on my Purple Burl lamb after keeping it pristine for a year.

I am sorry to hear of the troubles Will if it is Nicholas you're dealing with ,I can vouch he is excellent ,very professional. This is a problem we ( internet knife sale / shipping products) are faced with . I am very happy I accumulated a nice array of these knives . I really enjoy using them. They fit my hand ,the builds are consistently fantastic . It will be worth your wait
