Agreed, for small savings or speed - Dont go to Dack. For significant savings though, might be worth the wait.
Example:
Screenshots: one of my Dack orders ($400) vs same Skus in BladeHQ ($644) cart = $244 savings for 3 knives.
Para 2 s110v in Blurple g10 [bladehq.com]
Para 3 x110c in Blurple g10 [bladehq.com]
Dragonfly 2 Black s30v in pink [bladehq.com]
EDIT: I just noticed that SmartTek has the same Para 2 s110v in Blurple. With the discounts code and taxes = $202 subtotal + $21 taxes = ~$223

Vs Dack = $164 no tax + shipping is probably between $5-$10 = ~$175

Perfect Apples to Apples comparison. ~$50 savings.
With all that said, yes none of these prices are that special but that's not to say they aren't good prices if you're in need. If it's the same price on Amazon though, I'd buy from there instead. At least you have their no questions asked support if you get a clone or something.

Thanks for the info.
It would be nice is we all could say a Lexus and a mansion on the beach for me or nothing but most people are not in that place.
I always found I put off people if I like to point out I can afford things they can't . instead of expressing a sentiment that just makes me look like a braggart and bigshot I may point them to one of the many very nice non American made knives that will do all they need for maybe $20 or a little more. I have $30 knives that I like and find more useful than my American made Spydercos. If my only knowledge about knives comes down well I can afford a nice one and you can't it is of little or no use to anybody.

You do no American a favor by shaming someone that may be struggling with money to hand it to a corporation for a luxury high end knife. If anything most Americans have to shun that mentality as they already spend way to much on status and class conscious items. It is the along the lines of you need $500 sneakers or Lexus to go to school or you are not in with the cool crowd.
Should we really recommend a father or mother spend $200 for a knife for budget camping trip that cuts into the food, fuel energy budget but raises Spyderco's bottom line? Not all Americans make money working for Spyderco and like many companies most profit is transferred to the white collar that work in the corporation as workers wages stay stagnant. Transferring wealth from an American working class person to the American with a MBA helps one American and hurts another. If I spend $20 on China versus $200 on an Spyderco I have $180 for groceries or the electric bill. I can pay to the local contractor to fix my roof or spend at the local hardware store. No need for me to send it of to Spyderco's corporate headquarters that is in another state and does not help or benefit my local family, friends or community.
Many just do not have the money for them. To Spyderco's credit the company does have some sense and does not forget about those Americans like you do and they offer them cheaper knives made in other places yet you then come in and sour and shame that idea for the American.
I get you point as to American manufacturing but you are looking at very complicated issue and just use you purchase choices to virtue signal as you can afford a high end knife.
