Hello Everyone. I am new to this site but I happened to come across a thread bashing KT for some work they had performed. Not only have I used KT in the past but I right now in the middle of giving them the instructions for my second set of animals. I can only speak to my experience with Nikita and my trophies but I highly recommend them. I am sure everyone has a bad day and we all make mistakes but in my experience the work was great .......

I can attest that the wood crate was packed exceptionally efficiently. Again, in my case, the taxidermy work was top notch and I am glad I chose to use KT.
 
Everyone has a standard of work that will satisfy them. Congrats on your safari.
 
Glad your animals turned out to your liking. I am sure they have many happy clients and some not so happy just like most businesses. It is always good to here the good and bad if there is that knowledge out there. Then as clients we get to pick if we can deal with the bad report or not.
I did look at them as a place I might use and thought there work was avg. at best. That's just me though and I may have different wants then you or there other clients. I am not thinking that someone who said they were not happy with them is bashing them just saying he was not happy. Now people who have not used them saying bad things that would be bashing them.
 
Glad the trophies have turned out to your satisfaction and you are a happy repeat customer.
 
Wow, that zebra rug looks beautiful!
 
l too are talking with them about a second shipment , one that I havnt had the privilege to hunt yet .
I have three crates packed and stacked , waiting shipment , one is my lioness that im waiting to see about the cites import permit into Australia, since the bann , they have been nothing short of spectacular , in there patience and support .

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris

Hello:
I’ll take the .375 Whitworth for $1,150 if the deal falls through.
Thanks .
