Who is the best dealer to buy striders from?

No dealer will sell you a Strider for less than any other dealers. Just like CRK. If you want to play the game, you gotta shell out the money. If you must have a Strider on the cheap, browse the Exchange. They can be had for cheap. I picked up a used Lego SnG for 230 about a year ago.

This is correct. Strider much like Chris Reeve knives are price protected. They cost what they cost no matter where you chose to buy them.
 
What the others have said is true, Striders sell for retail price and are never in stock so why would anyone sell them for less? That being said, I just got an SNG from www.bluelinegear.com and they were good to deal with. They included a nice zippered case and a little sample of Frog Lube too, I'd buy from them again... ...probably will if they get another SNG that I like. I think they are a sponsor here, or were at one time anyway.

Deals come up every now and then in the exchange. There have been a couple SNGs recently for a decent price.
 
I've bought Striders from Bluelinegear, TNK, Monkey's Edge, and Knife Art. I would recommend any of them. I'd hang out at the exchange for awhile first, though.
 
TNK and KnifeArt are the 2 dealers I have used to get stiders and have not been disappointed. The only place you will find a good deal is on the secondary market here on the exchange. Striders pop up all the time here, I have seen plenty of NIB, LNIB or used on here and pretty much all were great prices. SMF's and SNG's are easy to find at dealers, PTs on the other hand are very hard to come by, in fact I managed to score the last PT from TNK on their last batch. Strider only seems to do 1 batch of PT's per year which sucks cuz its my favorite small knife to date.
 
Arizona Custom Knives did not have prices any lower than anyone else but they did offer layaway and excellent service. I did however get all of my Striders before this one in the Exchange. I'm kind of picky, in as much as I'm only looking for uncoated/CC SNG and SMF models, preferably with green scales.
