Buying online? New or used?

[PlayboyPenguin]

I see the knives online that are alot cheaper than buying them from local dealers. My biggest fear of buuying online is that the knives will be customer returns or previously rejected knives. Does anyone know any good sites that this is not an issue or is this something I should not be worried about? I am particularly interested if anyone has dealt with PVK.com

I have been knives online for years, and have NEVER had a problem. You will see here who are reputable, and who you want to stay far away from! I buy from The Knife Center of the Internet (http://www.knifecenter.com/), GPK (http://www.gpknives.com/), New Graham Knives (http://www.newgraham.com/), and TAD Gear (http://www.tadgear.com/index2.html)

The Knife Collector listed good ones. I'd add these two:

One Stop Knife Shop www.1sks.com/ -- this is the dealer who also provides us with Bladeforums

Bayou Lafourche Knife Works www.knifeworks.com/

A dealer should specify in his description whether a knife is New or Pre-owned. Don't let Pre-owned scare you. In the world of custom made knives lots of 'em never see the inside of a pocket so while they may have been "owned", they very well may have never been used or carried.

Hello, I have gotten 2 knives from PVK.com and had no problems. Fast shipping and good prices.

I try to support the sites that support this forum as much as possible and of them I like 1sks.com the best. just my opinion.
