The online community of knife collectors, A Knife Family Forged in Steel
So where do you folks snag your knives?
Title is pretty explanatory. I'm curious to know where all of you snag your blades from. Do you go into a store and buy in person, or just an online guy/gal? Myself, I've got a few places I consistently visit.
Store
S.R. Knives. The only good knifeshop anywhere around me. Got a good selection of spydies, Benchmades, and a multitude of other brands. Sometimes prices are a tad higher, but many times they're equivalent to what I would pay for a product shipped to my door from the U.S. Nothing like going to a store to actually feel the blade before buying. Probably why all of my purchases recently have been from them.
Online

I have occasionally bought blades from other stores (Warriors and Wonders, Grand Prarie knives), but these 3 are my main sites I visit.
I do browse on True North Knives and Knife Art, but have yet to actually buy anything from them. Look like great sites, but a lot of their gear is out of my price range atm. Hopefully in time that will change for the better.

I prefer stores over online. For me, buying knives is like buying swimming trunks... ya gotta try 'em on, no matter how tacti-cool they look! I buy from a local store called Camouflage, they are also online @ http://www.camouflage.ca/. Although most of their pricing is in line with manufacturers' MSRP, I get great hands on service and a good working relationship with the owners

I browse frequently on True North Knives, Knife art and Steel addiction ,but never have buy from them either.
Most of my knives are custom order from knife makers, and a few picked up at a knife show.

I buy 70% of my knives on the Web, 25% in shops and the 5% I receive from friends.
On the web I buy from the US.
