AK, I had got a Karambit through 20North. No customs or other hassles, but I did have to wait for about a month or so. You can try them.
Cheers!

Re: balisong in India through post
Lot of posts here on procuring knifes by ordering from the web etc, but any place where learning to flip the Balisong can be learnt. I gave up trying slicing my hand several times trying to learn from youtube videos

Re: balisong in India through post
Thanks essdee. 20North looks good. Just seen a few Filipinos they have. I think cold steel paradox aluminum is good to go within my budget. Can you give a little feedback on the Karambit you have purchased.essdee1972 wrote:AK, I had got a Karambit through 20North.

You might keep your hands safe by practicing with trainer knives with blunt edges. You can find them at 20North. It's like fun minus the pain!!Moin. wrote:I gave up trying slicing my hand several times trying to learn from youtube videos

Re: balisong in India through post
Folks, I have had pretty mixed experience with 20North. In one case, I had to yell at the guy over the phone, finally getting a refund. They are typically quite tardy in servicing orders (I think they wait for low rates in US market). There is a thread somewhere on this site on 20North. Pretty mixed, as far as I remember. Part of my experience could also be due to the fact that I was typically ordering borderline items - knives, bipod (which got cancelled), etc.
The Karambit is United Cutlery, black finish (somehow I end up getting matte black finish, whether pocket knives or the bigger stuff!). Needed to sharpen the business edge a bit (used the fine white piece from the Spyderco Triangle, manually, took a hell lot of time and a few Band-Aids!).
Cheers!
