    Im sick! and Thanks Howes, amazing customer service

    I spent $400 NZD (about 310ish USD) on a Paramilitary2 M390 and a Chapparal.

    HUGE shoutout to Jim Howe, this is my first overseas purchase and he helped make it easy, fast contact and made me an invoice as the way shipping was listed on his site, I couldn't afford it.

    Right...I need to get money back in my account... I think i have spent enough this month *coughdaycough* ^_^; time to wait for the dodo

    thought i would share with ya's, just cause I can

    I thought that M390 Para will be bento excuse. Did I miss something?

    I bought the Para 2 off another forum member who saved a 3rd one for me as I missed the international orders.

    The chaparal is my first overseas store purchase and Jim made it quick and easy

    Jim is one of the best. Can't count how many Spyderco knives I have bought from him. Had it not been for Jim, I would have never gotten the CF Para.

    Jim and Barb are good people, plus one on that. I emailed him this morning and took all of two minutes to get a response.
