The amazing handles were the first thing I noticed about Bill's knives when I first started browsing the maker's area here. He does a pretty decent job on the rest of the knife, too. ;)
 
True, some people might not like the blade finish but for a knife that gets used it really isw nice. I have two now with that finish and they are holding up great, and you still get the hamon!
 
This is a beautiful knife. Love the hamon and the handle. Can't wait to add one to my collection. Guess I just have to be quicker next time.

Bill,

What kind of shipping do you do to Australia (ie price and shipping time)? Would another of your blades fit into the same package (ie same price)? Should I contact you via email with these questions?
