How It Works
This is a consignment sales website. Folks send in knives to us, we clean them up, research them, photograph them, set a value, and sell them for you (handling all shipping, inquiries, returns, etc.)
A.G. Russell called our pricing a Dutch Auction. The price is set by our researcher, and then every month it is available it goes down in price by 10%.
Prices are reduced on the Wednesday closest to the 15th of the month. New knives are added usually twice a month.
