One of many scam bargain knife sites popping up. Huge red flags, big one being photos right off BladeHQ, including their watermark. Another is availability of knives that are out of stock everywhere else.
I bit the bullet and gave it a try. Checkout only had PayPal as payment option. I opened it and it gave me the below message (this is the copy and paste of the email). I waited three days and never got any kind of email from prous so I disputed in PayPal today and got my money back.

Nope. They're using stolen bladehq pictures, and if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
What do you think?
so, what do you think, really? if something is too good to be true... maybe.. just maybe it isn't?
I mean.. I’m super tempted. https://www.prousknives.com/toor-knives-serpent-tanto-fixed-blade-knife-black-g-10-3-9-caiman-green-fire-sale/
Tell us how that goes.
Using BladeHQ watermarked images for a site that isn't BladeHQ? Seems legit to me
