Gränsfors Bruks SFA where to buy?

[petah]

The best price I have found is eBay... Seller flashpub.
I know it's best to pick out the best but I don't have the option and the price is right. Thoughts?

amazing guy to deal with.

That seller is in British Pounds currency GBP

51.50 GBP x 1.7 to convert to Canadian Dollars = 87.55 Canadian
+ 15 GBP Shipping from England = 25.50 Canadian

total 113.05 Canadian

Plus the import duties and taxation minimum 5$ for the customs handling fee

List price in Canada ie for any retailer for example is (Lee Valey Tools )
$118.00 Canadian with free shipping during the next few days.

I don't see any cost savings at all from buying from ebay.


(is this price spotting and against the rules? Just quoting List prices and doing currency conversions...)

Yes! Go to Lee Valley and inspect your axe before buying. The one they brought me from the back store had the leather sheath scratched, and the wood grain was not totally parallel to the shaft. They changed it right there, and the one I got was "perfect"

lee valley it is then.

leevalley is your best bet but they might be soldout at the moment

i was at lee valley today for the first time and they had a great selection GB axes too bad they were behind a glass case... almost everything in the store is screwed down or behind glass. If you cant find a SFA look at the GB outdoor axe. I have decided to go with this one.Its not on there website for some reason??

I would highly recomend picking one up from a storefront, or known internet retailer as opposed to ebay. When your are spending this much it's nice to be able to actually talk to the person that pic's your axe.
