Blade Shop good or bad?

[potbellynbk2]

how do you guys feel about blade shop? i mean over all i hear they are good but there have been people that complain about the product and the shipping because i need it within 4 days so how do you feel about them overall?

If you're really looking to throw your money...literally, go for it. Do a search on the blade shop and you'll get the idea. They screwed me and many other people.

This is the wrong place for this question.
This forum is for testing results and reviews of knives,

Questions about dealers go here:

I would avoid The Blade Shop (Knoxville, TN) in the same way I would avoid the bubonic plague or someone with a pernicious communicable disease. While there may be satisfied customers who have remained unscathed in their transactions with TBS, I found out the hard way that their customer service is third rate - at best. Also, keep in mind: you get what you pay for; so, avoid cheap knockoffs and buy a quality knife with a proven track record and one backed up by satisfied owner commentary. I only wish I had read Blade Forums reviews beforehand. In the future, I'll deal directly with a specific knife manufacturer or with a respectable dealer like Sonoran Desert Knives, et. al.
