Gummi, your glove is done and ships tomorrow. Dave you should have yours by now.Alrighty here goes. Most of the time, MOST, I try to give you a realistic deadline. Sometimes gloves and life do not cooperate though. So it took six weeks instead of 4, so I'm sorry. Some makers take 9 months to do one glove for you and some makers don't send gloves at all. I could sit here and tell everyone exactly what happens to make gloves go late, but my customers don't want excuses, they want gloves. Period. I go online about once a week these days, so I check my mail to see whats up but thats about it peeps. I work 6 days a week now at a 9-5, and try to work on gloves every night and still spend time with my wife and kids. Sometimes gloves take a backseat to my girls, but I do work steadily on them. and get them out in a month or two, not 9 months to a year. Not to mention you get what you pay for. The best gloves at a reasonable price. Now on to more specific ppl.Sir brad, I do have a lot less time for making, so instead of giving you an estimated wait time on a glove I chose to catch up on the orders I owed, so I didn't "take on more thabn I could handle." You want a 6-8 week gauranteed wait time for a glove? Okay, Dave had to wait a little longer for his versus deluxe because I wanted to redo 2 blades I wasn't happy with. He paid good money for his glove and deserves the best that I can do, not a rush job. Buy a glove from someone who is selling theres.I haven't deleted any emails in about 6 months, so I have no idea what knifegloves is talking about. I can't seem to find it. The only emails I have received from makers is asking me for blades, templates, ot where I get my supplies. The fact of the matter is this, I worked my ass off for years doing the research for my gloves, I have made great contacts and worked hard to get where I am. No one handed me anything. Also, don't put me in the same category as others that have taken ppl to the cleaners. To me it sounds like you are just trying to tear me down to make yourself look better. I have been a NIGHTOWL member for a long time here and NEVER ripped anyone off. So, for you newb's and what not, do your research on someone before passing judgement. You never know, the best glove you could have ever owned may have just passed you by. Later.- Mark
