New to me.

Stu had wicked good deals. If my memory serves me right his web site was stu711.com and the stores name was Fortune Sales.

[Tom19176]

Yes Stu711 was it ! Dave the $35 9" ones were REAL ITALIAN. He had great deals! He basically sold for wholesale to the public.

I will add a quick story. My friend wanted to sell some of his collection about 2-3 years ago. I asked a very well known dealer who listed similar knives for 4 to 5 time what my friend paid for his when he bought them. My buddy would have been happy getting his money back and perhaps a small profit. The dealer offered him about what he paid for them 20 years ago from Stu!! He kept the knives.

If you look at 3Knives and remember that over 20% comes off when they remove the VAT, you will find the best prices these days. Steve Randazzo has good prices. As for dealers, Perryknifeworks is the best at the moment.

[Dave. B]

That price list is insane.I remember browsing these forums before I got into autos and almost bought a knife from some crazy lady on one of the auction sites that went by dizzy or tizzy or something like that. It was a good thing I read the threads here so I didn't get ripped off. It seems a lot of people did.

[sammy the blade]

Tizzy was a rip of artist. I kept leaving bad feedback for her on blade auction after she told me she would accept returns. She would accept them but she wouldn't replace them. Josh and me went around over it, he said she was running a business and I was hurting her sales. I was selling them too and she was hurting my profits too but he didn't seem to concerned about my bottom line, but I wasn't selling mine through bladeauction. She finally moved to another auction site under another name but that site didn't last and I don't remember what it was called. I'm sure one of the long time members here may recall the name, at my age sometimes I don't remember to poop till it's to late.

[sammy the blade]

A lot of us old members here remember the days when you could buy 9" stilettos from Stu for $35 but those days are long gone. Damned shame too, inflation I guess.

I remember Stu, I bought a couple of manual knives from him. Were the $35 knives the Taiwan made Milano stilettos?

They were Italian but those days are long gone.

[Tom19176]

Jim I remember those prices and that list well ! Stu was great. I like white horn and he would hand pick ( or have it picked for me) when I ordered from him....Amazing prices too BladePlay was good the first two years and not after that
