Hey.... Here's my question...
I have purchased two knives from a certain, well-known online knife dealer..
Both knives are sub $50 knives...
My first purchase was a Boker Strike which arrived with a very small nick in the center portion of the blade edge and also appears to have been handled quite a bit.. Some of the edges on the handle have bare metal beginning to show in certain lighting...
So I went ahead and accepted it..
The second knife, a Linder dual-action auto arrived 11 days after ordering with hairline cracks in the handle portion...
I want to order a Gerber 06 10th anniversary knife, but I don't know if I'm just being paranoid or what...
I am admittedly a very picky person about condition... Most of my auto knives are for collecting only, with only occasional carry..
I have cheaper knives for work...
I don't want to receive the Gerber with scratches and worn stead...I want it to be FACTORY FRESH... Do these knives come from the factory damaged?
