I cannot say that I am much of a knife guy, but I have built up a fairly decent collection of Benchmades, Spydercos, Gerbers, etc. that I carry at work. I will also confess that one of my primary reasons for going with these companies is that they offer sharpening services. I don't abuse my knives, use them for what they were designed for, and certainly don't trust myself enough to try to sharpen them.
In any event, who are the online, go-to vendors for knives (Benchmade, Spyderco, Kershaw, etc.) these days? I have done a pretty well at capitalizing on closeout sales. Any recommendations? |

No recommendations? I guess this is a bump for the day shift. First, I think you're supposed to wait longer than 4 hours before you bump a thread. But, to answer your question, I like knife center. Decent prices and I haven't had any issues with them. Although, I think others may have had issues –– but I'll let them chime in. |

I'll check it out. |

What type of knives are you inquiring about? - Folding - Fixed blade - Multi-tool How do you intend to use your knives? - Everyday carry - Self defense - Utility Primarily folding, for everyday carry, self defense, law enforcement applications. Having re-read my original post, I don't think I was that clear. I am looking for the best dealers from where to acquire knives, not the knife companies themselves. |

I've used:
New Graham Blade HQ Your Cornerstore com Poor Fish Cutlery Shoppe Ebay to name some. I'm sure I'm forgetting a few. I've also picked up a few locally at stores but they don't have nearly the sort of selection the online vendors have or the low prices. They're prices vary so do some research and hopefully you will get the best deal. All the mentioned vendors provided quick service and more importantly, when things go wrong, they will work with you to resolve the problem. Good luck, Dan |

I use knife center, blade forums, and ebay. |
| I've purchased several from here http://www.knifesupply.com/ and have never had an issue, some of the better pricing you'll find. |

+1 for Knife Center
They have great prices and keep you up to date on your order status. |
|
I usually go with
http://gpknives.com/ or http://newgraham.com/store/ Have done a transaction or two with http://www.knivesshipfree.com/ U can save a lot of money purchasing from the various forums too. Espescially if you are going to use the knife, that is the way to go. |
