QUOTE(alqa @ Jun 20 2010, 11:37 PM) Hey guys, sorry for the late reply... i just got back from running an outdoor teambuilding camp. hey alqa, yes - i want that chris reeve combat knife. if you're having the exact same thing, would be glad if you email me and quote me the price:gtasaboss: balisongs are a total no-no! its listed in the Offensive Weapons Act, and therefore illegal to own or carry. I dont and wont sell them. I cannot speak for others. tnehsc: I sell those... just havent got the time to add them to the website. PM/email me if you are seriously interested in getting one. CocoMongo: Sorry I dont sell Benchmade. You can try to source for them locally at CoreZone or mycorezone.com nitevision92: I own a boker subcom CLB, part of the magnum range. I like them a lot, small, compact, sturdy, sharp, secure lock and good edge retention. unfortunately, due to its economical pricing, it uses a cheaper high carbon steel and prone to rust if not regularly cleaned and oiled. mine a Malaysia Knife Forums' limited edition like the one pictured here:   tnehsc@hotmail.com THANKS!! |

here's something to share with folks who are concerned about your international shipment getting seized by the malaysian custom. I guess it boils down to what kinda blade your trying get:
In my case, this one from knifecenter.com caught my eye, it's a Gerber combat knife designed by chris reeve:  I took the hassle to look up the Kastam webpage and emailed them for enquiry. Good news is they actually replied fast, and prompted me to attach an image. I attached the same one above. Here's the bad news: Terima kasih kerana menggunakan e-Pertanyaan Jabatan Kastam Diraja Malaysia. Merujuk kepada pertanyaan tuan/puan, berikut adalah penjelasannya: Terima kasih di atas gambar-gambar yang dikirim semula Untuk makluman tuan/puan, barangan tersebut memerlukan lesen import daripada PDRM- Unit Perlesenan Am. Oleh yang demikian, tuan/puan dinasihatkan agar berhubung terus dengan pejabat PDRM untuk mendapatkan maklumat yang lebih lanjut. Alamat PDRM yang boleh dihubungi adalah seperti berikut: Ibu Pejabat Polis Diraja Malaysia Bukit Aman 50560 Kuala Lumpur Tel : 03-22662222 Fax : 03-20707500 Email : rmp@rmp.gov.my Diharap maklumat yang diberikan dapat membantu pihak tuan/puan Sekian, terima kasih.

QUOTE(alqa @ Jun 26 2010, 11:25 PM) bro, tnehsc... i apologize for not replying sooner. I just came back from running an outdoor induction camp in Melaka. Nah....who says i'm gonna write to our friendly police force? well its good for you to take the effort to write to kastam, pdrm and later you'll be referred to KDN. I guess, you've just successfully poked the hornets nest. that's why the americans come up with this policy: "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" cos once you've asked, you might not like the answers, and since you are now well informed, therefore if you still persist, you have legally breached the law and eligible for persecution. On the other hand if you dont ask, you didnt know and therefore you were 'uninformed' on the matter and might just get away with a warning. ..... aaaah ignorance is bliss. UGPM  won't wanna mess with them. forget about it. |
