I have purchased many knives through internet
dealers and individuals and have not had any problems with any transaction to date. But, recently I had a surprise when dealing with an individual here through the forum.
That was the hook!
Actually, this post is complimentary. I answered a post offering a Crawford Kasper Fighting folder from one of the memebers here on the forum. After the usual exchange of e-mails, we agreed on the price and I sent my cashier's check. After only a couple of days, and well before he received the check, he shipped the knife to me without payment received. He doesn't know me at all.
I was really impressed by this gesture and it really reinforced my belief that knife people are not only trusting, but trustworthy. I am proud to be associated with a great group of folks.
Thank you, Joel Pirela
