I'm looking for a knife that is impossible to find. This site has one in stock, though its from the Czech Republic, and has the knife marked up about $250. I'd pay it just to get it, but i'm very skeptical about a couple things:

1. ordering from an international site
2. if this is a potential scam site just trying to take money for hard-to-find item listings

This is the site:

Moskito.cz - široká nabídka značkových nožů

Internetový i kamenný obchod MOSKITO s nabídkou značkových nožů. Jsme výhradní zástupci firem Microtech a profesionálních kuchyňských nožů Arcos. Od roku 1999.
www.moskito.cz www.moskito.cz

I sent them an email just to confirm legitimacy, I received an email back almost immediately:

Hi,
Yes it is in stock and it is the original Microtech. We are the exclusive importer for the Czech Republic.
Best regards Jaroslav
Moskito s.r.o.
Czech Republic


Anyone know anything about this web site? Anyone have suggestions if i would be a total fool from ordering from them for import for a $600 purchase??

Thanks, I appreciate the advice here!
 
I think that probably does mean they’re legit.
You could always call Microtech to confirm.

Three licensed companies at that address. None listed as "Moskito."

Microtech says this is their dealer for the Czech Republic in Prague is:

World of Knives
Českomoravská
Hlavní město Praha, 190 00
CZ

Perhaps Microtech is not up-to-date in its listing of dealers. You could call them and ask.

From this guy's Facebook page, it looks like he sells Microtechs.

I paid a premium for it, but these guys no longer exist. SUPER hard to find... and PVK says that they are not likely to make them ever again due to the complexity of the build...

This to me is my personal holy grail of Karambits... Its worth the extra $225 i paid to secure one new.
