I ordered my GEC Improved Trapper from this place and theres one thing that seems kind of strange to me. The knife on the website had about 10 photos of it and said that was the exact knife you would get. Whats strange is the tracking says it was shipped from Doc's Knife Works in Houston Tx. But when I click on the tracking # it says accepted in Denver Iowa.
 
This'll probably be moved to FEEDBACK: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly! but yes, heard and bought from them without issue. PS. they're not a BF dealer so they're not discussed, not that specific dealers are discussed all that much anyway outside of specific knives due to SFOs etc.
 
I've heard of them. I was actually in Houston a couple months back visiting family and i got up early one morning to visit their store..... Well turns out they dont have an actual store that you can go visit. At least not that i could find. So that sucked and i thought was strange
 
Yes bought from them half dz times. Good folks. Always fast shipping

I wouldn't be concerned -- I needed to return a knife to Doc's (Bruce), called him to get the address, and he said he was heading from Houston to his ranch in Iowa that day so he had me ship it to Iowa instead of TX.
 
I've purchased a few knives from him and have always received great service. I wouldn't worry about it.
 
I purchased a GEC from them. Turned out they could not locate the specific knife I ordered, so Bruce called me directly and offered me a complimentary upgrade to a pricier version. Thought that was a classy move and appreciated it.
 
Well they're an official GEC dealer.
They post very detailed and accurate pictures. I bought this from them and I live in Europe so they can handle distance stuff no problem. Bruce replied to my e-mail and I've been very pleased. The shipping costs outside the Us are high though.
 
I also have had dealings with Bruce, a real Gentleman. You can't go wrong there. He lives in Texas and owns a ranch in Iowa, no biggy.
 
I've dealt with them over the years. Good people to deal with. Do a top notch job with their photos.
 
I purchased recently from docs.AAAA rating from me.as for the mailing system.....it could be re routed via vladivostok for all anybody knows:)
 
I mostly buy from sponsors here, but I've bought a few from Docs because he had something I wanted the others didn't have. No issues, good experience here.
 
Another happy customer of Bruce's. I've bought maybe six knives from him; everything has always been A-OK, and he definitely knows how to use photos to advertise his stock.
 
Bruce is good people. Dealt with him myself and he was very accommodating with the international side of things. He used to be a member here but I don't think he is any longer...
 
Same thing happened to me - ordered Magnum in Tidioute Copperhead. They were out so upgraded me to Northfield Antque Yellow which looks similar and has the nicer Northfield trim.
