Blade Shop: A trusted site?

[Demel]

I wasn't sure where to post this, but has anyone ever shopped here: http://www.thebladeshop.com/default.asp  is this a trusted site? I wanted to get something from them but want to know if anyone can vouch for them. thanks.

I have never bought anything from them, but their prices are good. The fact that most of their prices are better than blade HQ, makes want to buy something from them in the future. Since they have a brick and mortar store they should be trustworthy. If you order something from them please tell us about the experience.

Their twitter account was created in 2010. So they are around for 5 years. But they only have 15 followers. Not much for 5 years of service.

But after reading this review site i think it is better to buy your knife from another retailer.http://www.resellerratings.com/store/The_Blade_Shop

Probably some hipster consultant that told them they need that, but they never really started to use it. Same story with most of my clients (I always tell them to forget about that unless they are willing to invest a lot of time in it).

Yeah i see a lot of companies that have facebook or twitter accounts but they never update them.
I always advise people to invest the time and money in a good looking, easy to find website that is well updated rather than a facebook page that gets updated once a year.

I did cruch the FB numbers once... of course its flawed in many ways but the final number is probably closer to reality than the 1300 million marketing people seem to go from.

I was thinking about getting the Zilla Jr, they are the only ones that still have it

That also makes me second guess it

I will but I think I'll wait a little. If I do but I will let you know


Thanks for the feedback. But I don't want it that bad to go with an untrusted site. We'll see what happens.

Hehe, i think facebook only works when you are using it for a sport club or any other free time services / events where a lot of customers are between 18 and 35.

+1 for Knifeworks . Best choice for international shipping. Fast, accurate, cheap shipping.

I heard good things about Knifecenter too, but I think they don't send outside of US.
