My wait was not long at all and much shorter than advertised. This is the second week in a row I ordered something from KnifeCenter on a Saturday, they shipped First Class (as usual, not Priority) on Monday, tracking had it arriving Saturday, but it was at my PO Wednesday. I posted a dealer pic of this here Sunday and had it in my hand a few hours ago.
Oftentimes there's that little doubtful feeling when opening the box as one always has a slightly different expectation for what one finds. I usually warm to the new knives, though, and grow to really appreciate them over time. This one was everything I'd hoped for and more right off the bat. I loved my first Olamic, a 247 Wayfarer, immediately and this one is just blowing me away. I'll tip my hat to
Quiet
and
@evilgreg for nudging me toward acquiring my first Rainmaker.
