A few weeks ago I asked about SAK shows, and thought this time I would rephrase my question. I use ebay, swissbianco, google, and felinvet as sources for SAKs. What other options are there?
 
I think that's pretty much it tbh. I have gotten some great SAKs on the forums though, like TWO Copper Cadets!
 
Don't forget real world sites too. Flea Markets, Yard Sales, antique stores, etc. Even local out of the way hardware and sporting good stores sometimes have old stock on hand.
 
If you can find your state surplus office try that. Mine has TSA confiscated SAKs by the bucketload- luck of the draw on what you find but $3.50 for any full size SAK is a great price.
 
"smartknives" lists a lot of SAKs, many of which came from TSA, but sorted by type and graded by condition. I've never bought from them, but I've looked for knives and multi-tools on their website a few times
 
You could also try foreign auction sites and forums. The German knife forum for example has a dedicated SAK forum on which sometimes very rare SAKs can be seen that were sold only in Switzerland. It's probably obvious, but note that German is the main language on those forums.
