This past Saturday, my wife and I drove up to XXCutlery (Brassworld) 949 Ladd Road, Walled Lake Michigan. Primarily a mail order retailer, we were very impressed with the selection, pricing, and inventory in house; mostly Case, they also have Benchmade, SOG, CRKT, KABAR, and more.

Upon arrival, the front door was locked. We tried the side door were we were let in and treated extremely well. XXCutlery is a family owned operation; we were treated like family and shown all they offer. We spent over an hour in house and ended up with a USMC KABAR and display case that they engraved before we left, I ordered a Swayback Jack/Stag scales (I was surprised they didn't have one in stock), and picked up a Case travel mug to boot.

Check out the web site or visit the facility (I suggest calling first, we just got lucky). This is a family owned business that I highly recommend; they are good people!
