My Custom Order Book Is Currently Open
Please note below
Once we have gone over all of the specifications to be included in the custom build for your particular knife and we have aggreed on all of the final design elements that will be included in your knife and sheath. I will require a £50 non refundable deposit from you before I put your order in my book. My lead times are still around ten to twelve months, but once I reach your order I will contact you by email. If at this time you decide not to continue I will move onto the next order in my book.
