Bill designs (and makes) great knives and Mr. Reeve is famous for his company's production quality. He's won awards for several consecutive years, for it, in fact. You can't go wrong buying a Harsey/Reeve knife. I've got a Pacific, and it's great. If you think one of the knives previously mentioned might meet your needs, I'll definitely add my name to the list of folks who will recommend them.
If you want to want a hand-made knife for the price of a hand-made knife, and don't mind waiting in line for it, then it would be my pleasure to make you one, if you'd like.
(Though we haven't met in person), I consider Bill a friend, and whether you buy a knife from me or buy one of his designs, it's a win either way in my book.

That was a really professional post and I genuinely appreciate you taking the time to post it here. I have no need for a hand made knife (nor any knife, really), nor can I justify (for my needs) spending the extra money on a hand made one (although i have no doubt it's worth it) - hence i didn't PM you and waste your time.
Thank you again. For what it matters, you've earned my respect and if the time ever comes for a handmade knife, you'll be my first point of contact.
