I just wish he’d build the one I’ve had on his book.

If I were a knife-maker, I would not take orders/commissions.

I would make the knives I wanted to make, when I wanted to make them, then offer for sale.

Solves a lot of problems. Not all, but a lot.

Just Sayin'

Definitely not the end of the world, but 4.5/5 years seems a bit much when the others were ~2 years.

Bret made me a few knives some years back, he’s upped his game a lot since them and is in high demand. Most every top tier maker has stopped taking orders, that’s success like it or not.

Or like the late Tony Bose told me, “at 70 I make what I want”. His are bringing upwards of $9,000 now.

I'd be willing to bet ol' Tony finished up whatever was already on his books, before closing them out to only do what he wanted......

I had been on his books for close to eight years. When I talked to him, I was devastated and he was really sorry. Mine was one that slipped through the cracks.

But Reese made me a few nice knives….I carry this one most days.
