I requested help on a broken AFC F16 OTF...since it was 7 years old no parts were available.
Hannah recommended Ytube for information source and it was right on!
I was able to disassemble, rework and reassemble without expense! Thanks for the direction!

That’s awesome! Hannah pointed you in the right direction, and you took it from there—sounds like a win-win! We love hearing about successful DIY fixes, especially on a well-loved knife like your AFC F16 OTF. Glad we could help keep it in action! ~Tiffany

I contacted Blade HQ right after my order. As many do I went to check out reviews of what I just ordered. I found some reviews showing a potential issue so I contacted customer service inquiring if they knew if the issue has been resolved. Hannah Y thoroughly answered my question in the detail we all hope for when we ask a question.

I have bought several dozen knives thru Blade HQ and always it has been a great experience. You contact them they respond right back. They have a point system now that they pay you back for what you buy how can you beat that? Most knives are in stock but not all but the best thing you can look up any knife and see where it's from, important to me.
So 3 cheers, keep up the good work and your business will continue to thrive.

I have been buying knives from Blade HQ for roughly 15 years. I have to say the support these guys provide is the reason I am a repeat customer. I do not usually shop any place else. Great jobs guys, keep it up.
