I had found what looked like a couple of great training knives from Century, but I was told yesterday they are not in stock. So, do any of you have some ideas on where to buy folding and fixed blade knives that don't cost a bunch of money? I was getting a big discount from the guy who owns the gym I go to on the century knives but they won't be here in time for the seminar in PA.

Thanks,
Bonz

Just borrow a knife at the seminar. As far as knives go, there are always a few extras around.

I recently picked up a couple of trainers - one fixed and one folder - made by Proforce for $10 retail each from AWMA. Both are quite heavy duty and feel like they could really take a beating. Note that if you hit your training partner with one or the other, you might do some real damage - so maybe not so good for full-speed, full-contact, but great for slow motion technique work. If you live in the tri-state area, AWMA ships very quickly or you could go by their storefront in Philly, which is 25 minutes' drive south of Jim's gym.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Kelly, good info. I didn't realize AWMA was that close to Philly.

No problem! You're welcome to try the two I described above at the seminar. I'll bring both. Or, maybe it's not that out of your way to swing by AWMA? I don't know, but I'll see you at the seminar!
