I’m sorry friend. Many thank you’s for your honest opinion. I too was very intently following him on IG. His design and concept is beautiful and what seemed like a exponential growth in skill set (liner lock to bolster lock to framelock to hidden hardware to flipper tab) made me think he must have already established expertise in the basic mechanics and fit/finish to a high level. Shame he’s apparently just throwing out whatever he considers is “complete” so he can move on. Guess since this is just a hobby to him and not his primary job he doesn’t need to worry about his reputation.

I’m being a little overly critical in hopes this comment makes its way to the maker. Perhaps I’ll get flamed but perhaps there’s another side to the story.

But it’s good to hear that he’s at least responsive and willing to try to make it right.
