"Many Knives by Many Makers"
 

I appreciate you considering me to sell your knives. If you decide to let me sell your knives they will be fully insured while at my home, where they will be stored in a large gun safe. My home is fully wired with a professionally installed and monitored (ADT) alarm system. All knives are commercially insured while in transit to a knife show and when I ship them to buyers. The moment you send me your knives via FedEx, DHL, or UPS, your knives are insured at my expense, as long as you first email me a description and value of each knife. Please see shipping information below.

My commission is 20% on cash or check sales and 22% with Credit Card or Paypal sales. The CC and Paypal charge is right at 3.9%, but I absorb about half of the cost.

Since I offer an inspection/return period, I hold the payment to you for 5 days after the customer receives your knife. When I sell a knife at a show, I mail your payment the next business day.

I'm different than most purveyors. I am also a custom knife maker. With me being a maker, I am able to explain to a prospective buyer why a specific knife is sometimes two or three times more expensive than another. I've been making knives since '79 and have been a voting member of the Knifemakers' Guild since '95.

I'm blessed that I was able to get the URL name "customknives.com". If you go to Google and put in custom knives or custom knife, my web site is always on the first page.

If you have any more questions, please let me know. Email me your phone number (U.S.) and I'll give you a call.

Sincerely,

A.T. Barr

Shipping Information:
 
For my insurance to cover the value of your knives to me, you must do the following.
 
Shipments will only be insured by my insurance when you use UPS, FedEx, or DHL. If you use the USPS, then you will need to purchase additional insurance coverage.
 
You do not need to pay for any additional insurance when shipping your knives to me with UPS, FedEx, or DHL. But immediately after you ship them you need to email me the amount of knives and their total value. I also want the tracking number. If they ask for the contents, show "hand tools". You can mail me your knives to the UPS Store, just remember you are responsible for insurance.
 
Please ship all knives to this address.
 A.T. Barr
c/o The UPS Store
1067 No. Main
Nicholasville, KY 40356
 
You can use my address of "The UPS Store" with FedEx, DHL, USPS, or of course UPS.
 
Don't forget, immediately after you ship them you need to email me the amount of knives and their total value.
 
Never mark on the package or tell anyone that the package contains knives. Just tell them hand tools.
