I discovered that if you create an account on nationalknives.com, you get an "unadvertised discount" on Spyderco knives. It might work with other brands as well, but..I don't really buy any other brands anymore.

How much of a discount?

I don't know the exact percentage, but the K390 Endela I was ordering went from $139 including shipping and tax to $125 after I signed in.

Confirmed this, though it looks like only on selected standard production knives from Golden and Seki and not to sprints, exclusives, discontinued items and some Taichungs.

I have two browsers right now, one with a signed-in account, and another signed out.

A standard black Manix LW CTS-BD1N with DLC costs about $113.05 if you signed in, but $119 if not signed in.
Para 3 LW is also $113.05 signed-in, but $119 if not signed-in.
K390 Delica (out of stock) $109.73 signed-in, $115.50 else.

It's not across the board though and not all models get that discount.

Awesome, thanks for the tip, I've dealt with NationalKnives on the bay and on their website and they have always been fantastic to work with.

It's not 35% total off MSRP. It's an additional 5% off MAP.

Spyderco Opus at Amazon, sold by Photos4less for $119.99 only:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0722 ... _569163470

It's a big bargain already for a large knife with S30V and G10.

:eek:

My left-handyness works well with Spyderco's liner lock geometry.

Snagged one. Thank you, nerdlock!

That price on the Opus sounds great. Grabbing one. Thanks. Considering a Q Ball at 99 but the reviews aren't good. I need to check here for opinions from people who know spydies.

It’s been that price on Amazon for quite some time.

The Lil' Temperance 3 is also still 115 bucks on Amazon. Great knife, super stout, just under 3" so legal in most of the US, compression lock and a wide flag ground blade that makes it a fine slicer while still feeling stout. Ergos are also great - I don't use it that often but the center index holes on the handle are great for changing grip. Those 3 are the best deals on that site that I know of right now for Spydies.

I just checked again on Amazon and all the Opus for $119 are gone. There were 17 of them last night.
