Online knife shop with international shipping

[mikra]

Hi,
knife prices in Germany are ridiculous.

For example the cheapest spyderco tenacious I could find online is 48€, which is about 70$

Can someone recommend me a a USA based shop which offers international shipping to Germany?

Im mostly interested in Benchmade, Spyderco and SOG.

Thank you for your recommendations, those prices look way better (even with shipping and taxes).

Hey Mikra knife price here in Indonesia is crap as well, Cold Steel Urban Pal here cost arround USD.68 which i could buy online from my favorite dealer just for USD.16.95

www.knifeworks.com is my favorite dealer at this moment. They carry large brand included your favorite brand, so far they have great price all around but there is a CONS ( there is always a CONS ) they have minimum order for international shipment is USD.100 and shipping is $33.95 for the first pound and $4.50 per additional pound ( EMS and they only use this method no exception ).

So far i'm quite happy doing business with them, fast shipping,cheapest price all around and the most important thing is they accept Paypal. But IMHO their communication is suck, make sure when you purchase your knife because when you want to modify your oder after complete check out it won't be nice for you. I always order from knifeworks in a group ( with some of my folks ) to trick the shipping cost.

New Graham Knives (newgraham.com) has been known to ship internationally. They are one of my favorite dealers.

... minimum order for international shipment is USD.100

I'm afraid this is not going to be a problem .
Looks like I won't be saving money, I will just get more knifes .

I have just put through my second order to them, I was very impressed with my first order.

I would recommend:
www.knifecenter.com
www.knivesshipfree.com
www.newgrahamknives.com
www.agrussell.com

As mentioned http://www.knifecenter.comknifecentre is very good. They get the order shipped out very fast and they have a good selection.

If knivesshipfree has what you want then they are a good place to order from. Their prices are good and the shipping is very reasonable (I paid US$12 to get a Spyderco Endura 4 shipped to New Zealand and the knife price was similar to any other deals I found).

New Graham Knives are also good to deal with. I got my Becker BK-7 from them.

A.G. Russell is always worth a look. I bought some of their own brand of knives and the little suckers came 'shaving sharp'. One was the 'ultimate pen knife' for US$20 with VG-10 blade the little 1.5" knife is very small and very light and sharp enough to shave the hairs off my arm with.

Sorry, I did say hold on to your wallet!

Bloody good shop, not the cheapest, but great customer sevice. The guys that run it are really nice chaps. It's worse for me in the UK, they offer next day del for very little. So if I see something I like, I can have it in my hands the next day.....:naughty:

Great if that won't be a problem for you, since i refer to your post i thought you just might just want to get something like Tenacious

Additional info, they will proceed your order and ship within 1 - 2 days ( normal work day ). One more thing, when you browsing around their store please keep in mind to keep yourself under control because their site is really tempting ( my last order with them is 3x Benchmade 10700 Nagara with tempting @ USD 39.95 tag ) !!!

Ups, I corrected the mistake.

 

[Essexman]

Wow that's a big amount of difference! And I though we had it hard in the UK!

Something you should check before making a big order, is the shipping insured and what is the customer service like in the event of a del going missing/lost? It would be a shame to go for the cheapest deal and then have it go missing with you not having any come back.

So, what I'm saying is check the small print, then check it again!

Also, let us know how you get on, the more feedback the better for us all.

I know the Knifecenter (2nd cheapest) uses FedEx with track & trace - I am pretty sure that would be insured. My current order has left Honolulu and is listed as "In Transit". I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

Agree, the most important thing when make big order abroad is the insured package! poop could be happened every time, we don't like something like that happened to us but it just could happened every time !

For your information that's another things i like from knifeworks, they've included the insurance cost on their shipping cost !!

its bad here too.. all nice stuff is expensive..

so roughly and quickly looking for same set up of items (possiby they are not the cheapest just the 1st that i found)

aegis (want one) vex (not for me) tenacious (got one) sharpmaker (need one) they would be over 400$ without shipping costs if bought here in Finland.

aegis 89euros
vex 69e
tenacious 55e
sharper 75e. (and 1e about 1.45$.. so they are something like 415$ plus about 20$ shipping)

and ordering them all from overseas/usa in one shipment would also increase the total by 25% or so (taxes and vat etc)

the value limit is something like 70 dollars or so.. under that i should be fine.. so there is a definate reason to buy stuff from usa.

offtopic: hmm ..i should of asked the sharpmaker for xmas preset to myself. damit! its too late now.. it wont get delivered in time.
