I didn't know about he flat rate boxes. I usually ship stuff in cooperation with others. Lately, I've been involved with A.G. Russell's War on Troop Boredom program, whereby books, CDs and DVDs are being sent. A.G. Russell is a knife seller in Arkansas if anyone would like to check i out.

It sounds like Flat rate would work...also, you want to ask USPS about the special book rate which is normally 1/2 the regular postage...although it goes by truck to the APO in NY or SF. With what you are shipping, it shouldn't matter because time is not of the essence.
Thank you for your efforts for the troops!
Just looked at the site and see he carries Randall Made Knives...I used to collect hand forged blades and own 2 Randall's made by "Bo" back in the 1960's. One is the "British" Commando "Fighting Stiletto", and the other was the M18 "Attack & Survival" knife that he developed for as a jungle survival knife during the early stage of Vietnam (back then it had a rubber butt cap to keep the hollow handle watertight). Even back then, the wait time for a Randall Knife was well over a year (it was when everything was hand forged and no Solingen blades were used)...I sent him a copy of my orders to Vietnam and he custom made the knife and shipped it to me within 30 days...He was a great patriot...and that knife came in handy on multiple occasions!!!
