    Knifeworks.com and Canada

    I just went through this site, and frankly there are a few Spydies they have that I cannot readily get here for excellent prices.

    Anyone up here in Canada dealt with this company?

    Or anyone in general with feedback?


    Thanks.

    In States, knifeworks has been one of my go to retailers for a variety of products for several years. I've never had a negative issue though I can think of 3 times where the online store didn't reflect actual stock on hand. Each time I quickly received a call and had my issues easily resolved--once, a more expensive product was substituted for a better price.

    I'd call them directly and ask how often they ship to Canada. I believe that you'd get an honest answer.

    Simple excellent customer service, no complaints what so ever. They respond to emails quickly, within a day or two.
    First of all I've made SEVERAL INTERNATIONAL orders with them with no problems, and I can be pretty demanding sometimes.
    If my order was delayed when something was out of stock, I asked them and so far they've been spot on as to when they will get them back in stock.
    If I've had something special as far as shipping goes, no problem.
    I've also made orders manually via email when I ordered something from Autoknifeworks and some other stuff from Knifeworks and they combined the orders into one.
    Prices aren't the cheapest around but for the extra you are paying you get some good service.

    KW is one of the very, very best. I don't know whether there are procedural limitations for them shipping outside the US. Some vendors do it easily, some don't.

    A truly wonderful dealer. I've ordered from them a dozen or so times and each time the transaction was as smooth as butter.

    I find their service to Australia the best around, like mentioned they may not be the cheapest around but the extra money is an investment in confidence.

    They just seem to have one or two things hard to get elsewhere with good prices.

    Specifically the BRG ZDP-189 Endura in CE, and the PE FFG BRG model.

    They ship express mail only so any saving is negated by high shipping fee and much higher chance of nailed by custom. Only large knife dealer I found that would use 1st class (which has been 100% reliable) is newgraham, even though their price is more expensive.
