As the title asks... What was the best deal you ever scored on an Ontario knife?
I will start with my own, which may have been my best ever deal on a brand new knife purchase. It is an Ontario knife that was made to be sold through the TFD (Task Force Dagger Foundation) with all of it's proceeds going to help US Special Forces Veterans in need. It was a total win win situation, a great price, and the money going for a good cause. The price was only $25 plus s&h (maybe $35 total). Anyhow, the deal was good enough that I added three of these knives to my collection. One is shown here in the top of this display picture. It is basically Ontario's Marine Corps knife made in stainless steel (black powder coated), and having a more polished leather handle, brass guard and pommel, and decorative plastic spacers. The sheaths are all tanned leather. Good stuff at a ridiculously great price 😀
I like my toys, as most boys do (even us grown up boys). But, I also like a good deal. I mean, money does not grow on trees, so I definitely do my shopping around... Trying to find good items, at good prices, from good sources. In the end, it allows me to buy more toys 😀
One of the other very cool things about this great score, is that it was another fellow Bladeforum member that shared about this deal on a post he made, giving many of us a chance to get in on this deal. The TFD Foundation is still offering this knife, and still at a great deal, but now at $75. Again, still a good deal on this awesome knife, just not the absolute steal it was priced at before. All proceeds still benefit the same great cause 😀
Btw, for these knives to have been priced so low by the TFD Foundation, it's because the Ontario Knife Company actually donated these knives to them to help them in their cause... So kudos to both TFD and Ontario for doing this Noble thing 😀
