Is there any opinion who (factory etc) made this 11 inch. It was purchased in Italy in the 80s. I live in West central Wi. It was mailed to me from Milwaukee last Friday and it arrived Yesterday like this.

The site seems to be a bit slow today.
The knife got to my town Sunday nite after being scanned in 5 different places in and around Milwaukee. It was scheduled for delivery Monday but no,that changed to Tuesday. It was “Out for delivery” until 4:19 pm when the tracking turned red like there was an emergency,problem. It stated it was not delivered because my business was closed. I DONT HAVE A BUSINESS. The next morning I called the “Carrier Annex” and asked for the supervisor of my carrier and was told by the fellow he didn’t know any. Hmmmm! I told him about my distress and the tracking and that it was a LIE because I was here waiting for it and my carrier left me other mail but no knife. After a 5 second pause he said,”yes it is a lie”. What a joke. I’m thinking Fed- Ex from now on.

FEDEX is a lot more expensive and comes with its own set of problems.jw517 wrote: ↑Thu Aug 03, 2023 2:54 pm The site seems to be a bit slow today.

I see this all the time , basically the carrier forgets to place the item in your mailbox and at the end of the day they have to type in something as an excuse for not delivering it .
Not that’s it’s a lie they just don’t have the report option to say oops I screwed up and it will be delivered the following day “hopefully” .

This time it was thrown in the wrong bin at the Annex and the carrier didn’t even have it Tuesday.

I received a package yesterday that the tracking says went to Germany from the US and then back to Cincinnati, and the box was soaking wet and very damaged. Fortunately the seller packaged it really well so there was no damage to my knife, whew!
OC is correct regarding FedEx or any of the others actually, they aren't much better and they cost much more.
Just have to quit accumulating knives, I guess! Yah right! lol!

If I still had a better-half and she asked me "How many knives do you need?", I'd reply, "ALL OF THEM!" 
I think this has something to do with me no longer having a better-half!

Postal tip: when I order a knife & it’s shipped USPS, I cancel my mail & have it held at the Post Office. Service is automatically restored when you pick up your knife & any mail. This eliminates the carrier mis delivering it, which is where often times it gets screwed up

That sounds smart! It seems the more I value something,the worse they treat it.
