"This shop is small in size with mostly high-end knives so don't go here looking for bargain basement/flea market knives. The lady behind the counter was friendly, patient and knowledgeable about all the knives in the store. She was able to tell me from memory what steel each blade was made with and even let me play with the otf auto knives!"

Hunter G. Carswell

"Perfect and safe feeling environment. Staff was very knowledgeable on what I needed, and their merchandise is very reliable. Perfect place to purchase a knife for any purpose."
