“I wanted to let you know that Michael is without question the best dealer I have ever worked with. I trust him, I find that he is very knowledgeable, and I think he is probably the hardest working dealer/purveyor I have ever encountered. He will truly go out of his way to work with a customer.”

“I am confident that I made the correct choice in you as the most competent, honest, and forthright person to market my small collection. Your modest number of years in the business mean nothing in comparison to your integrity as an individual. Thank you for all your efforts thus far, and for those yet to come. It is truly a pleasure dealing with someone that I can trust. To a long and lasting relationship. Thank you once again.”

“Dear Michael: Thanks again. I’m always tremendously pleased with my purchases from your site, in fact I’ve never once been disappointed. I concentrate more on researching various makers and techniques, and vastly less on auctions, or on finding new dealers, or deals. As far as I’m concerned I’ve found them – For me, this is a huge plus. There’s much more value in finding a trusted dealer/colleague than one would ever imagine. Many bonuses. Many…”

“The folders are here and they’re awesome. Chamblin’s is a classic, it’s function is perfect and becomes a folder with it’s own soul. A real beauty. Regarding Sawby’s, it’s an art piece, out of this world fit & finish, thin, light, fantastic self-lock, the MOP inlay is astonishing… What can I say my friend. It becomes a deep pleasure and a honor to work with you, and I hope we??ll work soon in the next future again.”

“Hello Michael…… I’ve been wanting to write this letter to you for the past year or so…….but could never find the time. Well, I finally found the time. After being in the business community for about 45 years or so, I think I am capable of making certain judgments, with regard to the people I deal with in the course of doing business. As such, it has been my pleasure to interact with you. I have been collecting Custom Knives for years, and in doing so have bought and sold many with your help. Your expertise in the knife world is second to none! I have yet to come across someone like you who is so diligent and trustworthy, as well as knowledgeable and forthright. You made it very easy for me to buy and sell my knives thru your expertise. Frankly, I applaud you. I thank you for all you have done to make my collection what it is. Bravo. Best Regards, Allan”

You should be getting the check tomorrow as planned. I definitely hope to do business again when I am ready to buy that dream knife.”

Mike

“Hi Michael, I received the Osborne/Warenski knife today. The knife is amazing! It has exceeded my expectations! The pictures on your website were beautiful but to see the knife in person took my breath away. I want to thank you for your patience with me while I was trying to decide which knife to buy. I also want to thank you for your guidance and expertise that helped me make an informed decision. I never felt any pressure to buy. I truly believe that you were mainly interested in helping me acquire a knife that I would be 100% happy with. The inspection period and return policy helped me to feel comfortable with the purchase in case I simply did not like the knife. I especially appreciate that there is no restocking fee if a knife is returned. Thanks again for a wonderful and fun buying experience. It was a pleasure.”

“Hello Michael, I just came home to find an Express Mail box containing 2 of (now my) “family heir looms”. Such gorgeous pieces for them to be merely referred to as “Hunting knives”…but they are future Museum pieces in my eyes! Thank you again Michael for putting it all together for me…AND for the seller. It is that type of effort and customer service that makes for lifetime customers and it is a seldom offered up attribute in business these days, I am afraid to say. I am grateful that you continue to be that type of person which directly relates to the quality of…and the reputation of your business practices. With thanks and great appreciation.”

“Hi I absolutely love the knife! I’ve been meaning to email you but a you have probably seen Hurricane Harvey has had me occupied the last few days. I was exceptionally impressed by the customer service displayed by the KnifePurveyor staff.

It was my best knife buying experience to date and I hope to buy from you again thanks.”

Ian

“Hi Michael, The parcel arrived and I’m very happy with the 2 choices. The Marfione-Koji Closer is very refined and well-conceived. These 2 guys work together beautifully to achieve a fully realized and executed design. And the Elmax blade is SCARY sharp. Where the heck is my Knifepurveyor band-aid?(!) The Robertson is a fun, rugged and satisfying knife. It’s a rough piece of work with not a lot of finesse but it’s done quite well. I particularly enjoy the full-bellied blade. There are design errors here and there but nothing big enough to detract from the concept of the knife, which is one I like. Thank you, Michael, for sending the knives and for making them available to me from your impressive web-site, connection with the knife makers, and all the knife shows around the world you attend on our behalf. Sincerely, Ian”
