The name brands tools that you can find elsewhere are always cheaper elsewhere. A lot of the other stuff is no-name Asian tools that might be a good value but are not likely very good quality.

My most recent knife purchase was this little guy: http://www.knifecenter.com/kc_new/store_detail.html?s=BO589 It's rapidly displaced my much more expensive benchmade mini-griptilian as my favorite knife.
