Is anyone out there familiar with any knife shops in the Northern central PA or Southern central NY area?
 
I have had good luck with Joe at JT's Knife shop in Port Jervis,N.Y. Near the P.A. border- exit 1 off Interstate Route 84.He is located inside of an Army & Navy Surplus store and has a nice selection of Customs and Production knives.He carries Kurt Meerdinks Phase Three fighters,real nice tactical fixed blades.Some real nice folders also.I also take a drive out to Cubeta's in CT,also off route 84 from time to time,about a two hour trip from Hyde Park,N.Y.WEll worth the trip though,they have a large selection of custom and production fixed blades and folders.Especially tactical folders.They have a couple hundred Randall knives,and I just recently picked up a Randall # 1 from them,decent price too.I bought a custom Elishewitz from Cubeta's a while back also,though I don't have it anymore since I traded it to Joe at JT's.Thats about it for decent shops in this area.Chow,Ralph
 
One more thing,I do recall someone mentioning an excellent knife shop in Intercourse PA.if I remember correctly,but I've never been there.
 
Thanks Ralph, I'll have to check that one out as well!

I second JT's knife shop in Port Jervis. Joe and I are friends and I can honestly say that his store, his service and his personality KICK A$$. His selection is awesome. He even sells instructional videos and books. His store is a must see.

I'm with Tombstone & Louis-
I've been in a couple of times & each time I walked out w/ a new knife. Good service & selection. Absolutely worth a look if you're in the area. Always good to support the "Brick & Mortar" shops as much as possible.

Port Jervis, huh? Will definitely check it out on my travels. I will have to second Cubeta's in CT. Nice eye candy for sure. Anyone looking for a Randall should definitely give them a call @ (860) 347-4353
 
One more for JT's.

Hey Joe 'bout time you got here!

Happy New Year everybody.

After seeing this thread I visited J.T.'s knife shop in Port Jervis the day after Christmas. It was Worth the trip. J.T. was great. Super service, great selection, good prices.

Picked up a BM DarkStar and a CRKT M-16.

Thank you all.
Have a safe and happy New Year.
 
I agree with you there,I'm glad you took a ride over there and checked out his shop.Joe is one of the nicest guy's you'll ever meet,and a great dealer,who knows his knives.Best Regards and a Happy New Year,Ralph
 
How about in the Pittsburgh area? I have yet to find one. There was a Cuttlery World in a mall, but, they are gone now, and even then, they didn't really have the best stuff, and lets not even get started on their prices, Geesh!!!!!!!!!

Ciao!!

Thanks to all who replied! I drove to Intercourse yesterday with my gf to see Country Knives. (297 miles, OMG) What a great experience and great place to do business. Brian was a gracious host who didn't complain a bit about having to clean my drool off the countertops or knives.

JT's will be my next stop in a couple weeks.
 
Again, thanks to all who replied. Yesterday's venture was to JT's Knife Shop in Port Jervis, NY. Great trip, great store, and great service. Joe is a pleasure to do business with, and he didn't complain about drool and fingerprints either. I highly recommend this gentleman and his business. PS .. For any of you east coast folks who've never seen a bald eagle in flight, take a trip to JT's. My secondary pleasure in this trip was just a short drive from JT's where I saw my first bald eagle in flight. What an incredible sight.

It's not the pace of life that concerns me, It's the sudden stop at the end.
 
Also a nice drive is to custom knife makers shop of Kurt Meerdink,just a very short drive from JT's.Kurt is also a great host and knifemaker-He usually keeps some to sell on hand at his shop,unfortunatly at the time of my visit,I was tapped out of cash.see my post on my visit in the custom forum(do a search)
 
Thanks, Tombstone. I'll check it out next time I get to go to JT's.
