I get the majority of mine from SMKW and the rest from some dealers on ebay that I have had good luck with. I have looked at some pawn shops and never find anything except for some of the junk that J.J. talked about.

Hey Jan, Last time I went to an antique store, they had an entire section of knives. 

 

(Same stuff that Tom Odell peddles 4 nights a week.)

Always wonderful to feel the knife before buying, just not always practical.  Had good luck with both SHC and SMKW but all those are on road trips becuase we dont have one close.  I have bought many ebay knives with good results (always make sure it says this is the knife you will receive) and almost all of my new collection is internet based.  What works for us is find a dealer, even if it is internet based and mostly we stick with that dealer.  There are many IKC folks that are dealers or use specific dealers depending on the product line your looking for.  If you ask in the group for that line of knives here you may get some good suggestions for dealers within that line also.

I do love a good antique store hunt though

We can drive to shepard hills in a couple of hrs. I also have had good luck with SMKW. We do like the road trips. It's a family thing with us. Dad, my sister and myself all collect. We all collect different types of knives so it is a lot of fun.

I've ordered a # of my current production Queen from this gentleman ...  C.Risner.Cutlery ...  not the best for communication i.e. No e-mail notification of shipment. But I always get the product @ a decent price.

Like JJ .. I've nothing bad to say about SMKW. They hold a fantastic inventory & ZERO bad experiences w/ SMKW.

 

My closest CASE master dealer is Shepard Hills.. always a welcome stop .. but, rarely a deal !!! I buy more sharpening accessories there than actual cutlery.

Since most of what I like is discontinued, I usually end up either ordering from Case Knife Outlet or Collector Knives ... but those road trips to check out the Master Dealers are hard to beat.
