Nice ZTs Benson! Are these still available to order for that cheap price? Send some of that rain this way, we need it bad down here!
I ordered one a couple days ago. Coupon was still good and spoke to Alan who said it would be about two weeks before shipment.
I'm relieved as well, but I totally understand where you're coming from and don't blame you. I'm sure the refund will go through fine, and I do hope Alan and UEW can streamline their business and keep offering good deals like this in the future. Just think of it as the good 'ol days - before internet, tracking #s, Amazon Prime etc. Like when you had to order from a catalog or send in your cereal box UPCs and just wait patiently until the glorious day when you finally receive your Dick Tracy Secret Decoder Watch or special edition G.I. Joe! I also referred another friend to place an order around the same time I did (10/17) and he is waiting on his as well. I told him to be patient and gave him the contact info. to contact Alan if needed.
Glad you got yours and thanks for the pics! I too have been in contact with Alan. While the wait has been a bit frustrating I agree that I for one have gotten a little impatient and accustomed to next day shipping. Alan has offered a great deal and I'm expecting that a little pleasure delay will only sweeten the excitement of a couple new blades
Sorry, I missed your post Jonny As far as I know the deal is still running, just be prepared to be patient and let Alan work his magic ...and I'll gladly make it rain for you...
It wasn't the wait that got me necessarily. It was being told that I would have my items on a certain date after waiting 3 weeks only to have a box arrive with nothing that I ordered. It's detailed above but I'm good with the wait as long as its communicated accordingly. I lost faith and trust that my items would arrive. I generally do all of my ordering online so I can track it as needed. The comms were spotty and when alan couldn't tell me that my items were arriving with a tracking number I felt I was getting the run around. Might have been a bit premature but I think 3 weeks was sufficient. I might give them a shot later but for now it's still a little sour lol

Got my first knife today from UEW. I have a considerable number of ZTs and everything is right here. Centering isn't perfect but it's not bad and I haven't tried to tweak it yet. Actually surprised I like it as much as I do. Haven't ever been properly tempted by this knife.
I placed mine October 18th and still haven't seen anything, so it is a crap shoot as far as shipping times go- I will add that the more you pester the guy, the faster things seem to happen.
