I searched the forums and haven't seen anything , but then again the posts were old so thought I'd ask again.

Would like to see striders, chris reeve, spyderco , similar...

At the least I was going to drop by Randall, but I'm more of a folder type guy.
 
I did a quick search on google and came up with Rieg's Gun shop. Does not look like they have any Striders or CRKs but they do carry Spyderco knives. There is also a Zombie Survival Store; the website doesn't offer much but I am sure they have some knives.
 
I can tell you that no, no there aren't. Sorry. I think there's one in Kissimmee however.

Also, Al's Army/Navy does have a Spyderco Collector's account, so they do sell Spydercos and all of 'em have the collectors number on 'em.
 
Nope...If you happen upon one though please let us know...All that I am aware of are a few gun shops that also have a small selection of Benchmades and Spydercos. Other than that, I did stumble across a watch shop in Winter Park (Orlando Watch Company) that carries Protech and I few customs if I recall, very limited selection however.
 
ruffs saddle shop in umatilla. bout an hour or so north west of orlando.

called Cowboys knives online you can look up what they stock.

shoot straight is a complete waste of time same with all reigs and all guns shops. reigs is on obt. be careful down there. top top dollar and rude and unknowing folks own and work there. southern guns is a bit better and will negotiate a bit but lots of junk inventory and a few protechs and a spyderco or two. not a huge supply and inventory changes due to gun shows where they sell the bulk of their products. bass pro is a waste. orlando watch...ol' scott is the owner. i stopped taking him my Heuers and other mechanical chronos for a reason. deal carefully with him. there is some couple in kissimmee or st. cloud cant remember which right now....... pretty sure the wife runs some kind of a knife shop next to a junk shop they own. not sure on inventory, never been there myself. just seen pics online.

in the end, better to just buy online.

btw if you are going to universal or disney or even city walk leave all knives and firearms in your truck or vehicle. they make ya go through metal detectors now. pretty much everyone nowadays from what ive seen and heard.
 
Slim pickings for sure. Ruff's is definitely worth a visit if you are anywhere near it. Outdoor World has a decent selection, but the prices suck. There's also a Gander Mountain in Lake Mary and an Academy Sports around Kissimmee. Like it was said above, not much to see in these parts, but the Randall tour is worth doing for sure.
 
Go to Randall Knife Co. No knives for sale, but they have a great museum and it's a cool place. It's a pilgrimage spot for knifeknuts :)
 
I know this is an old thread. Any new Orlando information? Or are these posts still the status quo? Thanks all,

Nope, not really. Orlando remains a knife desert. Ace Hardware stores carry a selection of Benchmade, Case, Kershaw, and a smattering of whatever else the ordering manager found visually interesting. Other than that, no, we don't have any knife shops of note.
