I want to give the thumbs up to Robert Hankins for making a nice knife and giving great service. I accidently (I seem to have a lot of knife "accidents") came accross a link to the Big Belly bowie Robert had posted for sale on the forums. I had to have it and fired off an email inquiring about it. I got a reply the same day and thanks to Robert offering PayPal, he shipped it the next day, insured, postage included in the asking price. I received the knife in a few days as promised and it was carefully packaged and shiny new when opened. Both knife and sheath reflect the pride of a craftsman and I'm proud to add it to my collection. I must also say that I feel that I got a great bargain as I've seen lesser knives priced considerably more. Robert was a pleasure to deal with and very professional as well. Check him out.
