Welcome to mileswelze.com and thanks for visiting. Many of you may know me from eBay (user name: mileswelze) -- I’ve been selling there for several years. It was time to branch out, and now I have a place of my own.

My interest in knives spans back some 25 years, when I (like many others) got swept up in the Rambo / First Blood craze. I purchased my first survival knife from Jimmy and Marilyn Lile back in the mid 80’s and have been interested in Lile knives ever since. As such, you will definitely find Jimmy's knives for sale – I’ll be adding others in to the “Lile Knives (Collection)” section as time permits. If there's a knife in my collection that you would like to own in yours, drop a note and let me know. No promises, but it never hurts to ask.=

You will find Loveless Knives, Randall Made Knives, Treeman Knives, Ruana's, and those made by Vaughn Neeley. (founder of Timberline Knives) I usually have a few others for sale, so be sure to click the "other makers" tab on the left. I am not currently accepting knives on consignment and prefer to buy your knives or collection outright if the numbers make sense to both parties.

Payment for items can be made in a couple of different ways: personal check, bank check, money order, and credit cards either direct or through PayPal. Personal checks may need to clear before the item is shipped – these terms seem fairly simple and have worked well for me on eBay.

You can buy here with confidence -- rest assured my commitment to exceptional customer service is unwavering. As always, I will pack your items extremely well and will ship as quickly as possible. There is a “contact” link at the top of the page -- should you have any questions, please send an email and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
