... oh and a very nice FB04 from New Graham
As I'm sitting in the office it's for now just a little dry-handling and papershaving.
No problem for my female co-workers as I said it's intended for kitchen use :-)
Shipment was also no problem and I saved about 55.- bucks on the retailprice in Austria.
Hopefully after the weekend I can tell you a little bit more how it handles real work.
Have a nice weekend!

Hannes,
Welcome. Mike at New Graham does a nice job. He may be getting wet just now with the storm Isabel in the neighborhood. I think you will like the Perrin.
Cheers,
Jaxon

I've also had excellent service from New Graham Knives. Trust me, their band-aid dispensers come in handy. ;-)

They also take good care of their regulars. I just bought a hard to find PE Pro-Grip from them.
Learn from other people's mistakes, life isn't long enough to make them all yourself.

I've also ordered from New Graham - 3 times. Always great service and outstanding prices. The bandaids are a neat touch. And practical as well--those Spydies are mighty sharp out of the box and they DO bite.

Hannes, I'm glad it worked out for you! (shipping wise...)
In what size envelope did you get it in the end? No VAT/Customs?

Hi Ted!
It came in a large envelope and naturally customs got their fingers on the package :-(
So I had to pay 20% VAT and an additional 8,5% (I have yet to check with customs what
for...)aswell as handling cost all in all EUR 29,-.
In total EUR 101,- - good price but not the steal of the century.
Also as there is no insurance coverage I won't buy more than a piece a time and nothing with a value greater than 100,- bucks.
But it is a great option to get your hands on special edition/rare spydies.
Thanks again

Well, that's a bummer.
Was it a USPS envelope?
I got a large one yesterday with a SureFire E2e in it which I ordered via a friend in the US. No VAT/Customs. Guess I was lucky again...
