Re: 3knives.com, my experience...

I sent the knife back and got the refund, so far the problem has been solved for me. What they make with those knife is up to them, but it was definitly not a simple "oiling" problem.

Angelo contacted me today and sent me the refund. They are very fast with shipping but I still think they need better quality control.
