A friend in the US has bought a job lot of knives and is selling off what he doesn't want.
All are new and from bankrupt stock.
He has offered me some at what appear to be good prices.
Im not sure about what quantities he has at this stage but i think i would need to buy minium 20 to make it worth doing.
Does anyone know these knives or is anyone interested ?

Info taken from the Remington site.

"These folding knifes feature a traditional black Delrin stag handle with Remington circle "R" shield, nickel silver pins and bolsters, brass liners, and 440 stainless steel blades with etched Sportsman Series logo."

13-11-05, 01:36 PM
I haven't heard back yet.
The forum he runs has also been quiet so he might be away for a few days or having more server problems :rolleyes: .
As soon as i know i will bring everyone up to date.

Just to bring this up to date.
Between my POS PC constantly hanging and having to re boot it :mad: and my friends PC troubles it's fair to say that communications have been pretty poor but it looks like we can have all the knives and they should be sorted and ready to post this week or early next week.
They are coming by air which is usually a 3-4 week trip.
As soon as i know more i will let everyone know.

Just got a message to say i have received a Parcel Force card saying i have some duty to pay on a US parcel so it looks like the knives have arrived safely in Belfast.
Only problem is that im not and it will be the middle of the holidays when i get back home so it will be a week or two yet but at least they are in the UK.

Hiya, can you let me know if my knives went out with the others that had been paid for RB? I expected a card to say they had tried to deliver them today as you had sent them rmsd but nothing.

Obviously if they didnt get sent then there shouldnt be a card :D

Cheers!

Received my Peanut today, excellant EDC for the office.

Now all it needs is a few mins on my Sharpmaker.

Once again, many :sign20:

Tiffers,

I think the way it works is if they tried to deliver it today you'll get your card tomorrow. That's the way it works with my postman.

Tiffers
03-01-06, 02:49 PM
Not here Khimbar, if they try to deliver it today and fail then they should leave a card so I have the option of getting it left at the local post office for collection or to collect it myself.

I just tracked it though and it says its "Recorded Signed For" rather than rmsd so its not guaranteed to be delivered today anyways so no panic :)

Seems my postie is better than even I thought! I hope this one sticks around for a bit :)

He came along this morning, tried to deliver my package but couldnt cos I was obviously out. He has gone along, finished his round and then tried again on his way back to the sorting office!! Package received :D

Thanks RB!!

Given that we are quick to slag off the PO and their employees I think that little tale deserves a group hug!

Well done that Postie!

Absolutely!! I hope he sticks around. We have an awful turnover rate of posties around here. I rather suspect the sorting office in our area isnt a totally nice place which means the decent ones come and go rather rapidly!
