Excellent customer service!

Extremely simple, speedy, and efficient process. I needed to return a knife and they processed and accepted my return speedily and with zero hassles. I could not be more satisfied with the customer service that I received from Blade HQ.

You have to call if you want results. Takes way to long to get responses over email whereas over the phone it's immediate and they're very helpful.

Hey Stephen!
Appreciate the honest feedback—and your patience! 😅 You’re totally right: our phone lines are the express lane when you need quick help, while our email inbox can feel more like rush hour. We do receive a ton of emails, but we’re constantly hustling behind the scenes to keep things caught up and get everyone taken care of. Glad our phone crew was able to jump in and help! Thanks for sticking with us—we’re lucky to have you in the BHQ fam. 📞📬💙

None better!
June 30, 2025

I received a knife that either had a bad bearing or defective Detent. Either way I was unable to open the knife with thumb studs (the only deployment method). I contacted Blade HQ customer service and they offered a return for FULL REFUND! I opted for that option, They emailed me a return slip. I sent the knife back and was issued a FULL REFUND in less than a week! Blade HQ customer service is THE BEST! They have no peer! As a postscript: I immediately purchased another knife within minutes of getting my refund! I just can't do enough business with these guys and gals! I know they will always lookout for their customers and I feel like I'm part of a family when shopping with them!

Wow—thank you for the amazing feedback! We're sorry the first knife didn’t quite work out, but we’re really glad our team was able to turn things around quickly and get that full refund taken care of without a hitch. Knowing you felt confident enough to jump right into another order means the world to us!

We're honored to have you as part of the Blade HQ family, and you can bet we’ll always be here to back you up. Thanks for your continued trust and support—it truly means a lot!

I had an issue with my initial order and tracking number saying that my order wasn't being picked up by UPS.

I ordered a Extrema Ratio T4000 C (O/N BHQ-*******)for $252.00 and forgot to enter the promo code (Power Pint) for a free SOG Power Pint Mini Multi Tool. I reached out to see if I could amend my order to include the promo code and Jen N. Jumped right in! She resolved the issue in an extremely positive manner in no time flat and my free promo SOG Power Pint Tool is on the way. I know I don't control the purse strings at Blade HQ but I suggest you consider a bit of monetary compensation for a job EXTREMELY WELL DONE! Good employees are hard to find but great one's are even harder. Thank you Jen N. And Blade HQ for a very positive customer service experience!
