I know you had issues with making a hidden tang handle for some reason
Not at all. I have made quite a few hidden tang knives. What I said was the specific design of your handle was more complicated than I wanted to get into. A few other factors in the discussion also contributed to my decision to decline the job, which is why I did not pursue additional emails back and forth about alternative handle designs, or other design elements.
When I first started doing customs I was willing to try anything and everything. Now I know what I can enjoy doing. If someone has a project with design elements that fall outside of this, it makes more sense for me to leave it to another maker who actually will enjoy it.
I'm glad the project is working out for you.
