My local pawnshop comes up with new old stock Benchmades. They also carry a regional brand called, Alamo.
Soldiers will also pawn the knives they carried. Most are low tier.
They even have a vintage Old-Timer display cabinet. With only a few models missing. They want $1500 for it.
Next up is Army surplus. They sell a range of knives from junk to decent. New in the package Spyderco. HK and Boker. But good luck finding a M9 bayonet. Unless it's a Chinese knock off.

Arizona Customs is one of the biggest places to buy pre-owned knives. They've been around a long time.
Some of their prices are a bit high, and sometimes they let fakes get past them, but I'm sure that's not intentional. They do a high volume, and some fakes are hard to tell from the real thing, so I don't hold that against them.
They are a good place to look for hard-to-find knives. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them if they had something I really wanted.
And if you are looking for a particular knife, Google is your friend. Knives can show up for sale on a variety of websites, including firearm forums, etc.
And then of course there is ebay.

Honestly Here.....
If you know what you want, and look here on the various for sale forums, almost everything (somewhat common) will trickle through at least once a year

Note that you can't see any Wanted to Buy threads other than your own, but everyone with selling permission can see your thread if you post it. It is a really great time to be buying.

One sold here on The Exchange last April, and one was traded in September.
But it appears that particular knife is rare and hard to find. It's going to be one of those "Search and search, and keep searching, and hope one day you get lucky" kind of knives.
But hey, knife miracles do happen. Good luck.

I have bought a few knives from A.G. Russell's web site, Cutting Edge. All were as advertised and customer service was good.
