Where do you buy your factory knives?

Where are your favorite online store to purchase factory knives? TIA!

Probably no single knife store will have the lowest prices on all products. I go with ones that have selection, price, and service. Knifeworks.com and New Graham get my business.
 
I have had great service from Knifecenter of the Internet (except for one incident a few years back when I ordered a knife that had a defect, sent it back, and then the exact same knife *same defect in the same location* was sent back to me as a replacement! When I called about it, I was very polite but the guy I spoke with seemed kinda' ticked and copped an attitude about it saying I was mistaken...eventually, he apologized and said it was probably just an oversite during exchange. All was taken care of in the end.). I also like Knifeworks. I talked to the guy that, I'm assuming, runs it, and he was very talkative and friendly. It's nice when someone treats you like a person and not just a 'customer' once in a while! He went out of his way to get me my S.P.O.T. ASAP by having it shipped directly from the distributor to my house (it cost a little extra, but I didn't mind). I had the knife the next day. That ruled!
 
I bought 2 WH's and a BM from Walter Krafft of spoonrivercutlery.com. He's the best! If he carries the brand for which you are looking, buy with confidence that the price is fair (and usually the lowest around) and service is excellent.
 
I bought 2 Sebenzas from Walter and had the same experience - excellant. Its too bad he is closing his store. A real class act and a real loss.
 
If they have it I almost always buy from www.newgraham.com. They always have great prices, ship quickly (with good prices on shipping) and have never screwed up an order of mine. Now they have even started carrying Chris Reeve knives which is great. I just got a large plain Sebenza w/silver thumbstud from them for less then $330 shipped which is a great price.

I've also had great luck getting Sebenza's from www.knifeart.com and www.truenorthknives.com. I've ordered from www.1sks.com a number of times and was always pleased as well. For production BM's I also like www.edcknives.com, great guy to deal with!!!
 
Folks, let's not forget the owner of this forum's store. www.1sks.com
