How discreet is your packaging?

Returns & Exchanges

What’s your return policy?
We offer a 15-day return policy from delivery date. Knives must be unused, in original packaging with all accessories. Contact us first at [email protected] for return authorization.
What if my knife arrives damaged?
Contact us immediately at [email protected] with photos of the damage. We’ll arrange a replacement or refund and may request return of the damaged item.
Do you offer exchanges?
Yes, within the 15-day window. You’ll need to return the original item (following our return policy) and place a new order for the desired knife.

Technical & Legal

How do I maintain my knife?
Maintenance varies by knife type. Generally: keep blades clean and dry, lubricate moving parts with appropriate oil, and store in a dry place. Consult manufacturer guidelines for specific care instructions.
Are automatic knives legal in my area?
Laws vary significantly by location. While we screen orders for obvious restrictions, customers are responsible for knowing their local regulations. We cannot ship automatic knives to some US states or countries where they’re prohibited.
Are your butterfly knife trainers real knives?
Our trainers have blunt edges and are designed for practice, not cutting. They provide the same flipping experience without sharp edges, making them ideal for learning or locations where live blades are restricted.
