Welcome to AAPK.

I lived for a year off and on in Eindhoven, and was able to see some of your beautiful country and enjoy the gracious hospitality of the friendly people. ::tu:: I didn’t find any pocket knives but the food was great!

That's awesome! Sounds like you enjoyed the time there? I'm sure you know what they say in Eindhoven, right? Eindhoven the craziest!! Got a few family members living there and must admit that there is truth to that now. Hahh!! ::nod::

When it comes to pocket knives? There some stores here and there but overall it's mostly modern and tactical stuff.
Not many fine stores left (that i know about) that sell traditional pocket knives. We had a some of those when i was a wee lad myself but many are gone, sold off or stopped selling knives. The best, especially when it comes to traditional stuff must be the flea markets or collectors fairs. At the fairs prices can be borderline insanity so i've heard.

Welkom! It’s great to have you with us. I was about 450 km south east of you this summer. I’d hoped to make it to your area, but it didn’t work out. Beautiful part of the world.
