I made the call to keep the knife because of availability concerns. I have wanted this exact knife for a long time.
I have already cut with it and the rest of the edge needed a bit of work too. I told the vendor this via my email and I stated I understood that I had violated his return policy and didn't expect him to take it back. If he wants to make an exception to his policy AND he wants to offer something that mitigates my feelings towards the length of time I'm not going to have my knife, then that is his prerogative. That includes, btw, if he has another one and would swap them (though he sold all of them in 2 hours so I doubt that's on the table). It definitely doesnt have to be a credit or a gift. I do not expect anything, though if something is offered I will say so.
I'll be explicit; I did not and will not ask for/demand compensation. Or for an exception from him. I won't refuse them, either, but as it stands I have accepted the situation as is.
Perhaps it's just me, but I'd rather have the knife with the last 10mm messed up than to have my 330 dollars back and no knife or to be without it 6 months, so that's the choice I've made. Should I expect more? Perhaps, or maybe I should just get on with my life and enjoy it.
I don't know take a look for yourself and tell me if you still disagree; this is the full extent of the damage to the knife and the box, exact same image I sent to the vendor:
