Don't know of any on the Cape. The one I used to go to closed and I haven't found a new one yet. If you don't mind full msrp, try Stoddards. Three locations. One at Downtown Crossing, one at Copley Plaza, and one at the Chestnut Hill mall. Bought my first Randall from them in the 70's and my first Chris Reeve's and Spyderco in the 80's. Hight prices and not much in the folding tactical department. Some Benchmade, Spyderco, and CRKT are about it for tactical folders. Was in Woodstock Vermont for the last week and found a shop there that carried all sorts of stuff (non-knife) and some beautiful custom and production knives. Unfortunately, my better half knows me to well to let me out of her sight, she saw me drooling over the carbon fiber Lancet.

It is not the fall that kills you. It is the realization that "yes, you did something that stupid."
 
Red, Stoddard's is a great place to put expensive ideas in your head. A better one is Coastal or is it Cove Cutlery on Rte 1 in R.I. I don't remember what town but I found it while fishing out of Pt. Judith last winter. It's WSW of there and the bestshop I've been in so far. High end production , customs, tactical Ect. Another good bet is Pioneer Valley Knife And Tool in Amherst(www.PVKNIFE.COM)
 
since i posted this i found a place in the so shore mall in braintree called remingtons the guy said thay had a lot of high end stuff and could order anything i think i will try them tomorrow it is only 25 miles i'm siked

Not to rain on your parade but Remmington's charge very high prices. A SpyderCo Moran for $170 if memory serves. To rich for my blood. I always stop in when I'm passing through the mall. Look there but your better off checking out the links here for some much better deals when your ready to buy.

Also, I was surprised by the wide selection at the Chesapeake Knife and Tool in Boston, in Quincy Center I believe. They had a very early production 940, MT Kestrel and Vector, and even a nice Chris Reeve pheasant tail Sebenza, to name a few.
