Hello Everyone,

I guess to start things off, I should let you guys know what I can get for you.... So here goes.

Here are a few of my distributors who have websites you can browse:

http://moteng.com/
http://rsrgroup.com/
http://dlttradingcompany.com/
http://midwestgunexchange.com/
http://cfiarms.com/
http://deepakcutlery.com/
http://mercworx.com/
www.actiongear.com - can match most of these prices... better on a few...
www.italianblade.com
http://www.jboutman.com

If you don't see something there that you are looking for, just let me know. I have other distributors who don't have websites you can access. I will do my best to find what you are looking for.

As for pricing......

Let's just say 30% off of everything else. As there are so many manufaturers, there may be exceptions to this 30% discount. Please contact me to make sure. Once I have found a brand that doesn't receive the 30% discount, I will list it here.

I do consider price matching. If you find something at a better price let me know and we can see what we can come up with.

And anyone from the IFG forum will receive 5% off of my normal prices. :)

That is an amazing price. But unfortunately they don't ship internationally... :(

I can however match the NGK price (usually the best around) of $65.56

I am sure Sharief is talking about delivering in US. Is $65.56 with or without shipping?

The $65.56 is before shipping. It is 37.5% off of the retail price. I generally offer spyderco at 30% off. So that is my best price. :)

Well done, Charity!

I am a bit skint at the moment but give it a few months and I'll be knocking on your door.

Incidentally, I intend getting the Edge Pro Apex (full kit) and was wondering if you sell these. Almost placed the order on Ben but had to call it off due to certain reasons.

Incidentally, it would help our India based members if you could mention the various modes of shipping and their related costs. Best to edit your first post on this thread and add it there.

All the best.

Postage updated...
Sorry for the delay. I was waiting for my suppliers site to come back up. Unfortunately I am not seeing the Edge Pro. I can however get Lansky and spyderco and well as some others. Thanks, Charity

Thanks, Charity.

I've been using a Lansky since '95 and have decided to skip the Sharpmaker and put the money towards an Edge Pro Apex.
