I came across a lengthy post about 'Bill' not making a knife for somebody and taking his money....
I bought two knives from him in Anchorage AK a few years ago. he was 'older' then, born in 1937.
He studied under Gill Hibben and Wayne Goddard so he was no slouch. He is/was a Guild member from nearly the beginning, nice chap and i was sorry to read that post from 2017.
Not excusing him but age sometimes does play tricks on people no matter how talented.
