    I went to school with the brothers. I remember them as personable. The selection is good, prices are fair. The family has been in the business since I can remember, way before this current location. Kenny is very knowledgeable.

    I was born at Carswell AFB in 71 this is my home. I have been going to The House of Blades long before this location. I was going when I was jta kid when they was located right before the 199 Lake Worth bridge. The greatest thing about walking in there was the live Puma the guy had in there. He had some other animals in there too but for the life of me I can't remember. It was my mom that introduced me to this great place. The older guy that ran the place was just as cool as they came. I've even got great memories of the location of where the new House of Blades sits. Watching air shows from that empty field right there on 820 riding dirt bikes with my buddy Dennis. Home sweet home

    Looks like they have restocked, it's been a couple years since I've been in there, the Internet, Amazon and eBay nearly took them down, last time I was there their shelves and knife selection was going downhill. The whole right side use to be full of super high dollar knives and kitchen ware, there WAS NO yeti cups years ago it was All knives. YES,,,they were seriously over priced back in the day, now I believe they will price match Amazon/EBay. It's SO good to see them renewed and in great shape again, I'll have to go back, it had gotten disappointing to go in there it was so bad. I would rather buy at a knife store, pawn shops, flea markets, gun and knife shows, and of course BLADE SHOW TX. than buy off the Internet though ONCE in a while I will, I just like the interaction, the stories of others intrest in knives or whatever I'm buying, yes you can get the same thing on the Internet but you CAN'T get the experience or the memory, think of as an event. NOW, if you're from Texas close to Ft Worth, I'm an hr and a half west of there, try also going GIBSONS in Weatherford, the last one on the planet, it use to be the general store that had everything, hunting, fishing, you name it they had till Walmart came in and shut them down plus MANY more places, SAD. Anyway they have a pretty good knife selection, Benchmades, Kershaw, CRKT, ZT, Cold steel and their new brand TEKTO, Plus Case and others. Here's the deal,,, they're cheaper than you can get them online for the most part. I recently picked up the TEKTO G maskus F3 Charlie for like $98 before taxes. Was in there about 3 weeks ago, checked out the Benchmade Raghorn, $199, normally around $230-240. About three years ago I picked up a ZT 0452, $198 , cheapest online price was $265 at the time. So when you get a chance go show them some love LoL, no it's not a monster selection like the House of Blades but it's good enough for the travel and expect to walk away with something because you can't pass up an amazing deal. And their gun selection and hunting department, lets just say, Walmart doesn't stand a chance. If you want exceptional deals check pawn shops with a good hunting section, they generally have good name brand knives, Spydercos, Benchmades and the like, if you're wanting to expand your collection and not be super picky on a particular knife but staying with a name brand, take some time and try as many different ones as you can and you'll get the feel of which ones will generally have the better selections, for the most part if someone KNOWS their guns they know their knives and will trade, I've picked up Spydercos for $50-$100 LESS and others than new and 99 percent of the time they're unused or next to perfect. I won't buy one that's been thrashed. Example, Spyderco Civilian, used maybe twice and I guess the idiot used it as a throwing knife and about 1/6-1/8 inch was broke off the tip, no big deal really, ESPECIALLY for $80, fixed it , if you didnt know the knife you wouldnt know. Spyderco Szabo picked it up for like $150 after it was discontinued and it was ALREADY a $300 knife. Spyderco Matriarch 2 and a Benchmade Bedlam at a flea market from the same seller on a bundle deal for an INSANE PRICE for $175,,, FOR BOTH. Happy hunting, check the pawn shops often as you can, HAPPY HUNTING. Stay safe and God bless.

      I've definitely seen some goodies at some shops around me and online is definitely a great place for deals, but like you said, the experience of interaction with other people is what makes it even better.

    They have a good variety of knives, but I think their purchase agent only focuses on certain types in certain brands. We are a little pricier than other places.

    Can someone please explain knives to me? I like karambits because I can spin them. I like balisongs because I can flip them. But what's the appeal of spending many hundreds of dollars on knives that just kind of sit there? I dont get it.

    • @jdisdetermined
      @jdisdetermined Місяць тому +3

      It's like collecting anything. It's about enjoying the hunt and anticipation of finding something new you love. Premium modern knives on bearings with good deployments and comfortable lock disengagements are actually very enjoyable to play with. The precision and smoothness is incredibly satisfying. Knives are fashion accessories, fidget toys and tools all in one. They also usually hold their value very well, especially the more limited stuff. I've sold or traded knives for much more than I paid new many many times.

    A question, you are entering this store without any type of blade on you or in your car. When in the store, war I declared, a civil war between the knife folks vs the no knife folks. The owner say, you could bring, for free, one fixed blade and one folder/multitool. Because the store will probably be looted or in a blockade. Which will You choose?
