"They had just gotten a shipment of Cold Steel in and to my shock, the prices are almost exactly what the US retail price is..."

Milarm in Edmonton. They're selling the Recon Scout for $113. The San Mai stuff is still overpriced as usual (Laredo Bowie for $600+)

They also have the SRK for just over $100...pretty nice knife.

I'm surprised they lowered their prices. They're the only guys in town who sell Cold Steel...sort of had the corner on that market. Nice to see the dollar finally making an impact on things I buy.

www.warriorswonders.com is selling the Recon Scout online for under $100 and the rest of their prices are all sub-retail and in CDN dollars. I was going to go that route but I'm not familiar with them as a retailer...glad I waited until I could feel it out a bit more.

If Cold Steel will ship to you, you might check their factory seconds. I have bought several of those over the years, back when there was a Great Western Gun Show in L.A. and they had tables there, fantastic deals. Only cosmetic blems, usually on the handle, for half price or less...

In case any of you were wondering...they didn't refund the shipping.
