I would want to buy a knife from A. G. Russsel and I must use my credit card, but I don't know this shop. Is it a good? Is it reliable?

I've ordered quite a few things from A.G. Russel, never had any problem.

Once you order though expect to receive any and all catalogs they print/mail, but I guess that's the case with any seller.

I think it is fair to say that A.G. Russell is one of the oldest (actually I think it is THE oldest) mail order knifeshop in the US, and that its integrity is legendary. A true cornerstone of knife-enthusiasm in this country. But as was mentioned already, they are not the cheapest place to buy. On the other hand they are big enough that they sometimes order special runs that can not be bought anywere else. I have no doubt that you creditcard information is safe with them.

Ok, sorry but in the USA the only knifeshop I know is NGK.

Thanks again!!







P.S. I want to buy only a small and inexpensive knife.

dani -

Like the others said, A.G.'s been around awhile and he hasn't got
the best prices. Try this one...

And it's hard to beat A.G.'s guarantee:
