Re: Crazy deals @ Sierra and other places

WMK has amongst the best customer service I've experienced in knife dealers. Since White Mountain Knives has been discussed, I'll relate an experience I had today (Sunday before Labor Day). I've been debating getting an Edge Pro Apex 4 for a couple of years and noticed they had it for $245, 10 buck...

Re: Sprint Runs and the Abysmal Aftermarket.

I may not like how the market works for the sprints and exclusives but I understand and accept it. I will never support it by buying at inflated prices. That's all I can do as a buyer. Frankly I can see the temptation for flippers. Buy as many as you can at MAP and net in some cases $50+ each. It's ...

Re: Crazy deals @ Sierra and other places

White mountain knives is running a 15% deal this weekend. 15off is the code and you can use it on anything. Enjoy! Wasn't WMK selling the REX 45 P3 for over MAP? Like $189 as I recall. I wouldn't want to support that. I didn't happen to see it when they had that specific one in stock, but I haven't...

Re: Burnt Orange Rex 45 para 3

Interesting thread. A few observations. Most, if not all, of the calls for repositioning the clip and lanyard hole are from people who will not carry tip down. Everyone else doesn’t see an issue. Those tip up folks should get another clip that satisfies their carry preference rather than push for a...

Re: Crazy deals @ Sierra and other places

I feel like these 20% off deals make the diehards reach for something that's been out a while, that any other day wouldn't be considered. Nothing new available from these vendors. I say remain strong and wait for the new releases and sprints that are on their way. I agree. I've become a bit jaded w...

Re: Crazy deals @ Sierra and other places

Anyone do an order for an unreleased model through campsaver? Yes, for the Kapara. That's what I was thinking. Do they charge CC right away? I put in an order on a Smock. So far Campsaver has only done an "authorization" which is a hold on the funds. My understanding is a hold is typicall...

Re: Para 3 exclusive at River's Edge Cutlery

Looking back at the trend based on actual sales: In early to mid July it was selling for an average price of a bit under $250. Beginning in mid-August the average transaction average is just over $300. Over the last 7 days the average transaction is over $360. Where will it end? $450? $500? More?

Re: Looking to buy a SAGE , just don’t know which one??

5 is great with compression lock, my favorite.

3 is my favorite for the bolt lock - only Spyderco to have it. But as mentioned it is tallest due to the design of all the Sages so bot as great for EDC carry.

Re: Happy National Knife Day!! (USA)

Decided to go with a designer today, specifically the Paul Alexander Sliverax.

This is one that I bought mostly on a whim but has since made a place for itself in the daily rotation. I like it so much I'm thinking about getting a second one and having a flipper tab-ectomy done.
