US Customs

Hi folks! Just found this site. Been wanting a switchblade for years. Looking to order one I noticed the warning about possible seizure by US Customs. How often does this happen? Is it something I should worry about (especially in the "heightened security" atmosphere of post-9/11)? How many of you have had your packages seized?

Thanks!

Hi and welcome to the forum Mr. Barracuda.

This is one of the very few questions best asked by private message, if you look at the profile of the various members you can find the guys in the USA, no-one minds private messages of this nature.

Baracuda,

Looking at your location I wouldn't worry about US Customs. Everything goes in hell. No problem. If you are worried about receiving the knives yourself ask the Whore of Babylon if you can have them shipped via the 4 horsemen to her. If you have any other questions I think our forum member 666 can help you out.

Barracuda,

Go to the upper right part of your screen to the BladeAlliance section. Go to SKM, then Help Desk. Ask the question in the appropriate section there. However, because I dont live in hell, I can't attest to whether the great folks at SKM can provide advice regarding shipping to that region. Also, I'm not sure whether Imitation Horn would melt there. Perhaps JerrBear knows.

After reading your name, I must admit that each year I enjoy catching and releasing several of you.

Jim
