EVERYTHING is more expensive through them!
I purchased my very first knife through them! I did not know the going price of various stilettos and I was just getting started so I'm glad for the people who have found this place before making the same mistake that I did. However to be fair, I have to say their customer service was very good. Everything was shipped out right away and their communication seemed fine!
I'm not in the business of selling knives, so I will more than likely, not make any cash on mine, nor do I know the profit margin of PVK; but I do appreciate the people that I have purchased from who I know really have made minimal profitness! :D :D They should be allowed to make a profit, personally if I can make a good deal I will but I have also paid top dollar for particular knives that I wanted.

jerrbear i believe the reason for the change is it is easyier to punch out the thinner springs on a punch n dye than a single piece and a smaller press can do that easier, but a single,thicker spring will hold up better,and be stronger. just a personal preferance on my end i areakin.
