Well I learned the hard way how powerful the tumbler is. Those stonewashed Neckers I sold last week. Were not up to par on sharpness. They looked great. The edge just got ate away. So I lost some angle. They were sharp when I pit em in there. Lol. I was made aware of this by a customer. How embarrassing. Its not my style. As you guys know. I have reached out to the others that have bought from last week. And all is gonna get worked out. Again. Im sorry. And thank all of you for your friendship. And support. I just felt like crap and wanted to share it. But its gonna be all good. It was just 4 knives. I now know and respect the tumbler. And do final edge work after not just touch up like I would with blast cabinet.
 
I only had good experience with you J. you're a good fella and you take care of your customers.
You have my respect.
 
Mr. Horton, may I say you are a stand up individual. My necker was one of those you speak of. The fact is, it was still sharp enough to slice paper. I have received blades that weren't as sharp from mfr's that will remain nameless. What impresses me most is YOU contacted me with the concern. That's what you won't get with any other maker I have dealt with. Outstanding. :thumbup:
 
Jeremey you have excellent customer service and are a stand up guy. I have had nothing but positive experiences dealing with you.Not many makers or manufacturers would be stand up enough to post something like this.
Integrity if you have it nothing else matters.
Integrity if you don't have it nothing else matters.
You sir have the highest integrity!

I think I let you down, too. I should have said something ... I've used a similar method for smoothing out the internal surfaces of ultra-high vacuum gear in the past, and essentially discovered the same thing (with respect to the sharp edges of uhv seals).:o

Sorry about that. I just said to myself: "Naaah, Jeremy knows."

Next time, I'll offer up ... and then (;)) you can tell me to shut up.:)
