Cutlery Shoppe 2tone Para3 Rex45 - awaiting fulfillment?

#1

Post by aaronkb »

Hey friends,

I haven’t received a shipping confirmation for my exclusive para 3 from several days ago, and when I track the order on their website it still shows as await fulfillment. I’m getting a tiny bit worried, but I don’t mind if it’s taking a while with everything going on in the world. So I thought before I bother them about it I’d pop on here and see if anyone else is experiencing the same thing.

Thanks,
Aaron

COVID-19 is affecting everyone in the country at this point, to greater or lesser extent. Many businesses are operating with skeleton crews if at all - don't be surprised if it takes a but longer than normal.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

They were scheduled to ship today so if you're worried about it being a few days since purchase then that shouldn't be a concern, I also wouldn't be surprised if there's going to be an actual delay but if so it hasn't been announced yet.

Some have gotten shipping notifications. Hopefully, by the end of day on Friday they would’ve shipped them all.

In these trying times, it’s prudent to exercise a higher level of patience, understanding and empathy.

Yea at this time, getting a knife a couple days after you ordered it really isn't a priority. Chances are, those on here that ordered a knife already have a dozen or more in their possession to keep them occupied.

Hopefully they can get them all out before Boise goes to lock down. They just found cases from Boise State, and we're kind of expecting the governor to issue shelter in place orders for the whole state pretty soon (it's just one county right now, where we had 16 cases).

I may have misspoke in my earlier post. All of the tracking info in the past that I have received originated out of Arcadia, CA. I just saw an ID address on his site. I may have missed something.

First day of California’s “Stay home except for essential needs” order and we’ve had residential deliveries by UPS, FedEx, USPS and Amazon.

Sure is your thing!! You've already got one of the best looking Rex45 Para 3's out there! That shredded CF masterpiece you created is incredible.

Thanks man! Yea that one is a favorite. Unfortunately it crossed that line of being too nice to edc, it gets very light use (a special occasion/ full dress knife), I love having it in the collection though. I went full Ti on this build with intention of putting it to work. It wont be as nice as the shredded copper and CF skinny scales, but I think the plain Ti with Blue highlights will look good while remaining functional for heavy use.

I got mine some days ago - after 8 months of shipping.
The knife is perfect. Nice color combo with that bright orange.

You sure were a patient person. :D
