What are your guys' experience with them? I placed an order for an Endura and a RAT-7 in D2 around 2 weeks before Xmas. Got the Endura within a few days, but I still haven't got the RAT-7.
 
I had a similar experience. I ordered 2 knives, got one and never heard anything on the second one after sending several emails to them. I had my Bank credit my card and never heard back on it. I have seen a lot on here about Savson, most saying they are terrible to deal with: don't answer emails, don't have a phone number, etc. and a few saying leave them alone because the owner has been sick. I don't buy that excuse. Shut it down if you are a one man shop and get too sick to handle it, then open back up when things are better. My advice, go elsewhere.

not sure if the D2 RAT's were affected also, but there was a whole bunch of RAT knives that were scrapped because they weren't up to RAT standards. they have been backed up for a while now. check out the rat cutlery forums for specific details.

as for savson, i've ordered from them once and it was very pleasant. quick shipping, good prices. recent "troubles" have cast doubt on whether or not i would order again, BUT if the item is in stock, they're usually good.
 
I ordered from them about a year ago, they messed up my address, but they refunded my shipping and I got my item. I've seen the website recently and it seems to be poorly maintained, I haven't seen a new knife up there in a long time.
