Perhaps there has been a thread on this subject before, but since I am fairly new on the forum: mea culpa :o .
I would like to order some :spyder: knives over the internet. My only experience with ordering over the internet is with Case pocket knives by Shepherd Hills, and, as far as I know, they do not sell Spyderco.
So my question is: in your experience and opinion, what internet dealers are dependable :confused: ? They have to ship to the Netherlands of course (so all you 'kaaskoppen' :eek: :D , what do you think?).
Dependable internet Spyderco dealer!

New Graham Knives (everyone's favorite pharmacy :D ) would be my first suggestion. Excellent service, great prices and they ship internationally.

I don't believe in safe queens, only in pre-need replacements.
My first choice as well!!yablanowitz wrote:New Graham Knives (everyone's favorite pharmacy :D ) would be my first suggestion. Excellent service, great prices and they ship internationally.

In order of my preference...
http://www.newgraham.com
http://www.knifecenter.com
http://www.gpknives.com
Some of us have had bad experiences with knifecenter, but for me, they're so close I literally get my knives the next day, so I'll risk it, but NGK is my first choice.
Oso Grande is ok as long as they have the knife in stock, if they don't...well...you'll be waiting a while before they tell you.

Someone must be on vacation or something must be up, because the one time I ordered there, I made several email inquiries prior to ordering, and all were answered in a matter of hours.SteelDragon wrote:Some time ago I ordered from then and it went fairly smooth.

Or do it simple, reliable and quick: www.knivesandtools.com
Located in the Netherlands, good collection, no box shifters but a lot of knowledge in the house.
If the knife is not on the site, please call. They will have it in no time!
Need to see it first? They have a dangerous shop in Apeldoorn, be warned : too many goodies you cannot resist!

I think I need to stop buying knives, because I've bought from them as well(several times) when I wanted something I couldn't find in the states. They have great service to the US, so I can only imagine how good it would be domestically.Ronald NL wrote:Or do it simple, reliable and quick: www.knivesandtools.com

Newgraham knives: they're quick to ship out the order as much as they can. I had good dealings with them when I changed my order.
Savsonknives: they have lower price and had a USPS option for shipping.
Wildeals.com: they're the cheapest! only by a few $ compare to Savsonknives, free shipping on orders 150 usd. I ordered a Delica 4 and Captain with the free shipping option unfortunately it never got to me! but David was kind enough to let me change my order to a Captain and SpyderFly. Plus he added the Delica (on my original order!) =0)
