Here you go, I was looking the other day, but decided I couldn’t afford one for the moment, just invested in a Nomad Meister knife I’ve had my eye on for ages.
Afraid it’s brass, not seen any others for a long time.
I have one of the octagonal ones that are 17th century repros, I really rate it, the bushstore had them, maybe still do.
Anyway:

That's an odd website. Has anyone any experience of it?

 

[matarius777]

Afraid I haven’t, I just found it through a search.

 

[matarius777]

It doesn’t have any reviews on trustpilot.com but that doesn’t necessarily mean anything, especially if it’s possible to pay with PayPal (don’t know if it is or isn’t).

It has this at the bottom of the page:

Does that mean they basically getting an Amazon seller to send you the item? That would explain why they seem to have so many different things for sale.

The website is shouting ‘scam’ to me. No contact details, company number or address listed anywhere. Footer randomly has a menu item called “Woman dress” completely out of place. No links to their site on any social media, or any social media page for them.

Strongly recommend you avoid.

It's what it says - a sight with links to Amazon sites with the items for sale, and they get a small cut if you end up buying via that link. Not a scam, as such, but not an actual retailer either. As it happens they don't appear to make much, if any effort to keep up with the link rot, and that particular link will lead you nowhere but an Amazon non-functioning web page message. Looks like the Helicopter Dancer's quest waltzes on.
