Got two from him direct--sold one and kept one.
Easy to deal with--got an email with a timeline (I think 3-4 months wait at that time) and requesting payment and confirming my requests, and then an email almost exactly 4 months later saying it was ready and would be shipped. Low stress transactions both times--all business, no going back and forth discussing options and asking questions.
The first one I didn't request anything, the second one I did (rounded spine and choil + slightly heavier).
The first one was fine, with no issues. The second one came as asked, with nicer finishing on spine/choil--and was a bit longer than 240. Best part--it had slightly higher bevels than normal. No idea how this happened--but it was a pleasant surprise.
IIRC
@panda ordered one and asked for high bevels.
At the very least, ask for spine/choil rounded. Maybe consider asking for a heavier or lighter version depending on if you're after thick/thin. Maybe consider asking for higher bevels? Always a question of how much to ask for vs. asking a maker to stray...
