My experience with National knives
Prices - 5 stars
Selection - 3 stars(not the best)
Shipping Speed - 5 stars( ordered twice - promptly shipped)
Communication - 3 stars(two inquiries - one replied to hours later the other a day and a half)
Packing - 1 star ( ordered twice - first time just only folder came with a small box...Ok packing but not great,second order -two knives in a small USPS flat rate box,knives wrapped once in newsprint without any packing material ....half the box was empty....newsprint not taped...my two knives were bumped around in the box hopefully no real damage)
In short,the worst packing of all the knife dealers that I've dealt with, in over 10 years.
