I posted a message a week or so back regarding reputable online dealers. After weeding through the overwhelming amount of responses I ordered a knife through nwcutlery.com. They weren't the least expensive of all the recommended dealers but they did come off the price a little. The main reason I went with nw was that they had the knife I wanted in stock whereas the other places didn't. Just wanted to say thanks to all those who helped me with my decision. BTW the knife I bought was the Benchmade 720. Great knife!!!!!
