Very nice. I have a Historical British Service Issue from them that I'm quite fond of. Their delivery times are sneaking up a bit due to the world situation, but I'd do business with them again.

I just perused their website; looks like good stuff. They have lots of choices/variations, so I'll have to do more digging.

I'm liking the Scourge.

MK1 looks good. How long did it take? Looks like it could be a bit of a sketchy operation?

They are a small shop so it seems most of their stuff is made to order, plus ship time from Nepal. I've ordered one blade from them. I think they're solid.

I think I waited something like a month or so to get my Due Chirra.

Contemplating ordering a Scourge...because zombies.

Ordered Dec 30 received Apr 26 but to be fair, DHL lost it for about 3 weeks. I don't think they're sketchy at all. I was kept informed during the build and they jumped on helping DHL track it down when they lost it. I would buy from them again.

What is it that suggests sketchy?

I went through a lot of the site, I get startup operation in a foreign company, but I don't get "sketchy." Several pages share information about culture and tradition. Some pages suggest a sense of humor unless of course zombies are real.

Would your concern be the same if it were a U.S. based company? What did I miss? Smile

It's a small shop in Nepal. Only thing sketchy about it is the time frame may get extended by supply issues and shipping issues they have no control over. They were upfront when I ordered that delivery times were extended. I got photos of my knife in progress which was pretty cool. Quality of the blade is excellent. Cost isn't that bad. I'll order another and just forget I ordered it until it comes in.

How much is shipping? I did not see shipping charges listed on the website, maybe I just missed it.

I just put an order in and the shipping from Nepal was about 45 bucks to me in New Mexico.

Mine will look something like this when it comes in: https://www.reddit.com/r/SWORD...app&utm_source=share

It’s an 18” Sirupate with a Scourge style micarta handle. I can’t wait. I’ve been emailing back-and-forth with their guy Lucas, and he has been extremely helpful.
