And now you will. At least indirectly, from me.
Before that, I will say that I truly tried to present things as factually accurate as I could. I didn't intentionally omit any relevant details. Yes, there is the other side. But the maker didn't provide any explanation of the price increase, just that there was one.
After reading the earlier replies here, sleeping on it, and a few messages by PM, I wrote the maker this morning. Told him I was disappointed about the price increase, and asked if we could compromise on a price in between his initial quote and then the delivery price.
He replied fairly quickly, said he had been thinking about the situation, took responsibility for the lack of communication, and said he would honor the initial price.
After paying, I sent him a response, and thanked him for his response. I mostly didn't want to have the negative issues about pricing to taint my impressions of the knife, as it is something I have been looking forward to for some time now.
So, I'm glad to report this was resolved amicably and respectfully.
Honestly? You should have asked the maker about things before starting this. Always go back and try to resolve things first. That's basic.
