Does anyone have experience with Loewen-Messer wood handled folding knives? I am interested in any details regarding cost, materials, quality, fit & finish, and most importantly - how to buy one in the US! I have located some on German websites, but was hoping to find a US online retailer that carried them. So far, no success. I have posted a link to their online catelog.

Any help and experience you can give would be greatly appreciated. :)
 
They are pretty cheap, arund 15-25 euros for the basic slipjoints. High-carbon steel, thus not stainless. They cut well (in fact, better than most production knives thanks to a decent blade geometry), and fit and finish are ok for the price you pay. Sheeplefriendly, too.
 
If you find a US vendor, I'd sure like to know. Paying for overseas postage can get expensive.
