    Maybe some ignoramus or automated audit system thought your "Persian Fighter" knife was not from good old West Fork, AR USA !

    Almost funny, but not funny. Good choice. That's a great looking blade. I imagine it'll be a huge hunk of steel in person. Sounds like it is easily over 20 oz. I bet you will love it.

      Yea it turns out after many phone calls to PayPal and finally working my way up the chain of supervisors I finally got them to admit that the name of the knife triggered the initial problem but then they claimed MMHW refused payment or had some issue on their end which is complete crap.

      Barry and I talked a few times by phone and I know it had nothing to do with them it was all PayPal. The sad part is they are considering changing the name of the knife now. Then today I get an email from Barry and now another customer is having issues with PayPal as well.

        That's effed. I guess if you don't want PayPal trying to crawl up your ***** you need to order good ole American sounding names like PIG TRAIL BOWIE or CABIN FEVER, hahah. Stoopid. Don't try to order the "Full Penetration". Bunch of idiots.

            Ordered a Spyderco Tenacious today. Black handle, black blade, plain edge. Sexy!

              Suuhweeet! I always want to pick up a couple of those little ESEE's. I really like the LE graphic, got all the right stuff on it.

              Shameless plug for knife lovers, some great prizes being drawn and Knife Rights had some really strong wins last year:

                    My wife gave me a Benchmade Impel for my birthday. It is a real fine knife, but being a Benchmade it is overpriced. Top quality, fit and finish and you pay dearly for it.

                      I bought a Kershaw Clash and Kershaw Cryo 2 on Prime Day...certainly not to the same quality of my 2 Benchmade's...but the Kershaw blades were a fraction of the price.

                        Yeah, a $15 or $30 China made Kershaw won't compare to a USA Kershaw or a USA ZT. Just like a $40 Chinese Redline Benchmade or Benchmade Design Chinese made "H&K" knife won't compare to a USA Benchmade or Black Class blade.

                        You do mostly get what you pay for. Under $250 dollars anyway, IMHO. BUT, if you want REAL value, get a USA made Kershaw with decent steel.

                        Personally I have had more expensive USA Benchmades with issues than expensive ZT's with issues. A knife where the blade play cannot be adjusted out easily is a problem. So is one that doesn't come sharp, but not as big of a deal.

                        Chinese anything, I always expect blade play - and always get it Except for maybe a few Spydercos.

                              A Buck 119 because, well, I was at Wal-Mart so why not? I might even take it hunting this year (even if it is bigger than I generally prefer).

                                Buck 110 folder. I know just a pedestrian knife. This one is unused and came with the sheath for $35 shipped. I think it's out of their custom shop it was made in 1992 and has a polished blade with Safety Award lasered on the blade in about 1/8 letters. It was a replacement for one I had bought in the early 70s and lost in the 90s.
