I'd like to buy either a UKPK or Delica 4 but looking at the wide price differences for both knives got me a little worried. I guess quality like Spyderco is often faked and I'd rather not get caught out when buying if at all possible.
Are there any signs I should look for, dealers with poor reputations? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

The guys at www.heinnie.com are brilliant. They know their stuff and dispatch super quickly. Prices are generally competitive compared to other UK retailers. Their exclusive UKPK (red G-10) is also beautifully executedFiestaRed wrote: ↑Mon Dec 19, 2022 4:32 pmI'd like to buy either a UKPK or Delica 4 but looking at the wide price differences for both knives got me a little worried.

Re: Buying in the UK
Yes, i would rather pay a little more like heinnie heines and be certain you get the real deal, especially on popular models.
Re: Buying in the UK
Seconded. In fact their current HH special UKPK is an absolute bargain, same price as the ordinary models but you get the G10 scales and a more solid construction, and a better steel. I have their original special with the leaf blade, but I much prefer the drop point.Farmer wrote: ↑Tue Dec 20, 2022 8:00 amThe guys at www.heinnie.com are brilliant.
