Hey all,
First of all I'd like to say that I'm sorry for my inexperience in this field.. I happened to look/ stumble into the traditional world and WOW! I think I'm in trouble.. I found a couple blade styles that I love (Michigan Jack in wharncliffe/sheepsfoot , Broadway Jack in same blade shape, gec #77 in same blade style)

What I'm curious is to where are good sites to purchase these. I found knives ship free who had a good selection, but I'm just wondering if there are anymore sites that I don't know about..

Thanks for all your help.
 
Welcome to the porch!

For GEC, you can go and look on their site on the right hand column at their 'distributors list'. There you'll find a list of dealers that carry GEC products. You can peruse and go on from there.

My favourite is Collectorknives where I purchase from Mike almost exclusively.


The most frequent dealer names you'll see post around here are Knifeswapper aka Mike Latham, Okbohn (Derrick Bohn), Waynorth (Charlie : maker of TC's and many other SFO's), and GunstockJack (Barry)

When asking this question you have to understand that on Bladeforums we have a list of supported dealers and some that may be mentioned are not part of that 'paid dealer members' There are many dealers in the link below that carry traditional knives.

The two knives in bold text in your quote above are Northwoods knives if I'm not mistaken. I believe those are only available at knivesshipfee.com or the secondary market.
 
Aha yeah I almost forgot Barry! Had to edit that in D: His 25 Barlows coming out look aces.

Mhm if you're looking for Northwoods knives you can either find them from two different places. DLT trading for the 'vintage' Northwoods (Knives made under the late Dave Shirley, the previous owner of Northwoods Knives) or from Knivesshipfree with Derrick who currently owns Northwoods and also has a selection of vintage Northwoods knives.

Not entirely certain if there are anymore beer scout blades available from dealers..you could go through the distributor list and see but I do believe they're only available in the secondary via the knife exchange. They do pop up from time to time. Or you could put in a WTB ad in the Wanted to Buy subsection. Happy hunting~
