Incredible customer service
May 26, 2025

I just started buying knives from Blade HQ and I was working on buying knives with engravings for fathers in my life this Father's Day. One of the engravings was too long for the blade placement and it was slightly wrapped over the back of the blade and it looked bad. I reached out to see if anything was possible and they were prompt and not only did they replace the knives without the engraving but shipped it to me immediately without having to jump through any hurdle. Genuinely an incredible customer experience.

Hey Joey!
Thank you for the kind words and for giving us the opportunity to help with your Father’s Day gifts. While the engraving didn’t come out quite as expected, we’re glad we were able to step in and offer a quick resolution. We truly appreciate your patience and are happy we could deliver a smooth experience in the end. Let us know if there’s ever anything else we can do!

Impersonal
May 23, 2025

Blade HQ was very efficient in all transactions. However, it seems very automated and cold. I made some goofy comments about how dangerous the knife was but no one batted an eye. It seems no human read my email, but rather it seemed very automated. Just my thoughts

Always very quick to respond and always helpful and top-notch customer service. I had pre-ordered a WE knife Co. Brr15 frame lock Black Ti + Copper Foil CF and then got news that my 12 yr old pup needed costly surgery, So I had to cancel my order. I will reorder soon, but they were very understanding and took care of it swiftly. Very grateful for their courtesy.

So Blade HQ is a great site
May 19, 2025

Great customer service! Fed ex has been horrible this last shipment. Holding into the package for a few days and it finally was shipped out again from North Carolina at about midnight. Now 12 hours later it o ly made it to Virginia. Now I'm wondering how long they will hold it for. It was supposed to be at my door yesterday. Now I have a feeling it won't get to me until maybe Monday. I'm hoping anyways. I have 0 complaints with Blade HQ though. GREAT SITE!

Always a great experience with Blade Hq... in every way! I have been ordering for many years and consider the experience to be exceptional. I've ordered less recently mainly because of so many happy purchases. Now getting a bit maxxed out and have most of what I prefer. But new must haves are surely down the road.
