I would recommend checking out our "good ones" list first ....many of them sell on Blade Auction.

That "Admiral's Awesome Knives" isn't on our "good ones" list doesn't necessarily mean they're suspect .... it could simply be that there is not enough data on them...

Best wishes

Admiral's gave me good service, and were pleasant to deal with.
They included free lollipops, discount coupons and a knife they were not comfortable selling, as a bonus.
Stu can beat their prices, and he's just as nice to do biz with, and lacks only a fancy web site(no big deal).
He does not include the lollipops(the brute).
You pays your money, you takes your choice.
I'll stick with Tiny and Stu, but if Admiral's had something I really liked, and those worthy gentlement did not stock, I would gladly buy from them again.
(That darn knife from Admiral's won't cut, but has become indespensible around my house, for many dirty tasks, including scraping the inside of my wife's dope pipe. you never know!)

The scrapings are like a savings account. You let it build up for as long as you can, then when your out of everything else, you clean it out.

Ufortunately Ive never purchased from the admiral, sure has a nice web site though. I agree with MP, if they had something there I couldnt find anywhere else I would order it there, they seem like reputable dealers. I realize thats not saying much, sorry I couldnt be more helpful. :(
