BHQ Customer Service is the Best
September 5, 2025

Cloey did a wonderful job processing my refund. Thank you so much. Absolutely nothing wrong with the product… high quality in fact. It was more of not fitting me, which was my fault. BHQ products are the best you can find in the knife industry… and there are a lot of good knife companies out there. Thank you Cloey and thank you BHQ. John Feller

Customer Service Plus
September 5, 2025

Having just received a recently purchased item, a notice of a significant limited price reduction was sent to me. Dismayed that I had not been alerted to the change in price at the time of purchase, I expressed my disappointment. Blade HQ was quick to respond to my note and issued a refund that made up for the missed discount. This kind of custom service and value is rare and very much appreciated.

Best prices. Easy returns 👍
September 5, 2025

I always get the best price on name brand knives, well below MSRP. I accidentally ordered 2 of something and the return process was painless. They emailed me a shipping label, and a confirmation once they received it back. No hassle 😎

Vosteed porcupine
September 4, 2025

Thanks for making my return / refund easy and less stressful. Could someone PLEASE let me know if the porcupine I returned was defective like I explained in the reason for return box, or are all the porcupines Manufactured all the same as the one I returned? PLEASE let me know!
Thank you for your help

Hi David, thanks for sharing your feedback! We’re glad we could make your return/refund process smooth and stress-free. 🦔 We did inspect the Porcupine you sent back and didn’t find any issues with that particular knife. While we don’t open and check each new one individually (so they remain factory sealed), we’ve had very few “prickly situations” reported with this model. If you decide to give the Porcupine another shot down the road, we hope it sticks around in your collection without any quills!

NEVER AGAIN
September 3, 2025

Terrible shipping, miscommunication from the start ( not on my end), and I never did get my knives. They had the nerve to suggest I reorder. HA! All this BS went on from 7-9-25 to 8-17. Utter nonsense.

Hey there,
We’re sorry this experience was so frustrating. After your package was returned to us due to an error with the shipping address submitted, our team reached out by email, requesting a physical address since automatic knives can’t be reshipped to PO boxes due to carrier restrictions. After a few days without confirmation, we went ahead and issued a full refund and recommended reordering to a physical address so we could successfully deliver your knives. We know this wasn’t the outcome you wanted, but we truly appreciate the chance to clarify, and we’ll always be here to help should you decide to give us another shot.

Suburb services related to a Chaves/protech knife that was defective shortly after the present being opened. Knife failed to close after about 10 to 15 successful deployments. CS rep contacted Monday August18 and she emailed me a UPS return label and instructions on how to package the knife for a safe shipment.
I returned the knife on Monday August 18, it was recieved at BladeHQ, August 20. A return was sent the same day and arrived here Friday, August 22,2025. Fast quality service!

Hey Terry!
Now that’s what we call a comeback story 🎉. A knife tapping out after 15 deployments is rough (early retirement much? 😅), but we’re glad our crew could jump in and keep the birthday vibes alive. Huge thanks for working with us on the speedy return — sounds like the replacement made it back faster than a hot knife through butter 🧈. Here’s to many more flawless flips and zero birthday surprises (unless they come in gift wrap)! 🎁✨
