Where's the best (read: cheap and reliable) place to order a La Griffe from??

I'm really interested with this knife, planning on buying one and also an Emerson folder with the quick open spur.

got mine here... http://www.knifesite.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=3938

Good service but it was a first time deal for me. All I did was a "Froogle" search and went with the lowest price.

Damn, they're out.

Did Emerson discontinue these? I was looking around for you and the prices seem way higher than what I paid... I bought it about two years ago, NIB, on GunBroker.com for $40 w/ Shipping.

I'm sure you've done your research, but as I was checking into the Griffe again, I learned about the Hideaway. (http://www.hideawayknife.com/main.php) It's true that it's more expensive... but you're getting a custom knife that's received almost universal praise.

Dammit... I thought I'd given up on buying knives! (btw, I'm sure there are alternatives out there now, but if you want to go the economy route from the last time I researched, the CRKT Bear Claw has seen praise too.)

btw,
