Good customer service
November 8, 2023

While they wouldn't accept return, they did give me good credit back for malfunctioning blade. Would use them again.

I purchased some knives for my birthday, but had forgotten to sign up for the points rewards system. I emailed support asking if they could please retroactively credit me the points for my purchase as well as my birthday points even though it was 2 days late. Alyssa from support responded to my email the same day, gave me all the points I requested, and wished me a happy belated birthday. I am extremely pleased with the speed, quality, and personal touch that the BHQ support team provided me. Very excited to do more business with them!

Why blade hq is about 3.9 out of 5 stars
October 5, 2023
Updated review

Had a Reate on the sites wishlist as it was out of stock. Got notified it was in stock on Wednesday the 27th of Sept so I ordered it that morning. The knife just arrived today, Wednesday the 4th of October. 7 days is a bit of a drag when other sites I've bought from (and many others have also reported) have had the product from their hands to mine in usually 3 days, maybe 4 tops (all standard shipping). So that could be definitely be improved. Second issue that bladehq imposes is sales tax. Maybe that's a state law thing that bladehq has to deal with, but it's something that other knife sites do not have. So obviously the more expensive the order the more taxing it becomes. I didn't expect $30 in taxes when my order confirmation was sent to me. So heads up to everyone on that. Overall, I am very happy with my first Reate and it was carefully and inconspicuously packaged. I would order from bladehq again. But maybe I'll stick to ordering the expensive knives from sites where sales tax is not included.

Not at all what is advertised...but
October 1, 2023
Previous review

Shipping speed? Excellent. Overall satisfaction with the product? Eh...fair. False advertising for "genuine handmade from italy" stiletto? Absolutely. This is a Chinese copy and should be labeled as such. "Italian style" would be more appropriate and at least labeled in honesty. If it's too good to be true then it definitely is, sadly. However, it isn't a terrible knife and I wouldn't mind owning another one. Just don't have much respect for companies that lie about what they're selling. So im giving 3 stars for fast shipping and a somewhat reasonable price even though its a thrown together Chinese fake akc advertised as a genuine Italian akc stiletto. Shipping however was very good

Great service and customer service.
October 4, 2023

I had an issue with scales for a baby banter and within a couple of days my money was refunded and was told not to bother sending them back. I was literally floored. You won't find that anywhere these days. Nice to see a company care about their customers. That's how they'll keep customers such as me.
