I've never dealt with them, but the wares look good for the money.
I'm quite tempted to get one of the cheaper knife blades. Can't go wrong for that price!

I haven't had any experience with their damascus steel or blades, but the piece of Koftgari work (a Pesh Kabz handle) I ordered was excellent. Very nice, indeed.
Quick to process the order, not a long wait, and a good secure package arrived under a month.
I don't know if that helps at all.

Avoid these guys like you would avoid the Plague. They accepted a contact with me for two pistols 18 months ago with a promised delivery date of 4 weeks. No pistols. No refund of my $1000.00 USD. In my opinion they simply cannot be trusted to do honest business and being in India, you have no recourse.
I would not recommend anyone, under any circumstances do business with them!

Yikes, thanks for the heads up, GG!

No offense, but paying that kind of money up front to a company / crafsman you don't know seems not the best thing to do in any case.
Plenty of people (including me) have been burned by paying money up front. Even to well-known and respected craftsmen.
Them being in India makes it even harder for any legal action, but let's be realistic: legal action for damages in the $1000 range is not really feasible anyway...
That's why I suggested to buy a cheap knife first, and if you like both the knife and the transaction, you can try to order something more expensive, if you want.
