You'll be better off purchasing it directly from US retailers online, and get them shipped here -- the cost that 20north charges is extremely heavy!

http://www.knifecenter.com/, http://www.cutleryshoppe.com/ are some who ship internationally. Also keep a watchful eye on the "WTS: knives (individual)" section of bladeforums, it has amazing deals. I recently purchased a Spyderco Meerkat, $50 shipped to India, and I received it fine!

Hi Prof, I have purchased a few knives from 20North and am extremely happy with them. It takes about 2 weeks for the delivery. True they are a little more expensive than other sites.

There's absolutely no problems that I have faced with 20 north. Specially my bowie which has a 11&3/4 inch blade.
