Had to have the RAT knife when I saw with S35VN. However it went off sale the day I was going to buy it. BladeHQ sold it to me at the sale price when I contacted them the following day. Thanks!

I needed to send a Hogue automatic knife back for warranty work and because it's automatic I couldn't send it to Hogue myself. I called KC and even though it was bought three years ago Hannah found the bill of sale, explained the warranty return requirements and set everything in motion for me. Give Hannah a raise.

I look forward to dealing with BladeHQ! With some of the knife makers cs has started going down the tubes I now trust and rely on there top tier quality customer service. Brooke is a wonderful addition to the customer service team. There isn't a issue that she canr help with and always makes sure I'm never going to get buyers remorse becuase if there's a issue, she takes care of it immediately! The entire team is on fire! They hit turbo mode just to make sure the customer is satisfied with their product and service. I'm a lifetime customer without a doubt.

I was confused by the website
May 9, 2024

I was confused on the checkout procedure as it did not show my gift cards being debited from the total charged to my card on file. I left an email message on Saturday thinking that I would not hear back until today (Monday) as the message indicated that normal business hours were Mon-Fri. I was quite surprised and very impressed when I received an email from Kim F explaining that my gift cards were accepted and what was charged to my card. I was very happy to see that great customer service still exists! You have made a very loyal customer to Blade HQ!

Great advice from Jen
May 9, 2024

I called Hogue to get an RMA for an automatic knife that was opening very slow. Jen explained the RMA process, which is restrictive due to state, federal, and local laws, as well as no Hogue dealer within an hour and a half drive. Jen suggested that I use a compressor to clean it (not canned air), as well as PrOlix dry lube to lubricate it.
The opens like it was new, without a shipping hastle, and the bonus of being introduced to a really good dry lube.

Excellent customer service
May 9, 2024

I waited 7 months for a specific knife to be released, the knife came into stock, I was not contacted, I only learned it was released by doing a bit of research. I expressed my disappointment to customer service, Zac was understanding of my situation and came up with a satisfactory solution. Because of his response I would not hesitate to do business with Blade HQ in the future. I have made purchases previously and have always been satisfied with them.

My experience with Blade HQ

Would be 5 stars but ordered the Olight i5T Pluss flashlight in Cool White twice and was sent the Warm White version both times. Have ordered it a third time now, and will see if the right flashlight is sent this time.

I made an incorrect order after hours and emailed with a request to cancel the order. It seemed like the moment they opened in the morning, I got an email back saying the cancelation was taken care of. Super helpful, super friendly.
