Average Repair Time?

[cammac]

Hi, can everyone tell me the average amount of time they have waited for a major knife manufacturer to repair their knife? I am not talking about major repairs, just a broken belt clip, or sharpening, for example. What kind of turn around time would you expect say from the day you ship it out to the day you get it back?

Thanks, Cam.

My Benchmade 940 was away a total of eight days. I sent a knife to Chris Reeve Knives twice and in both cases got it back the next week. None of these were big repairs, just sharpening and adjusting. For the record I also had a sheath made at Survival Sheath Systems where I had to send in my knife and the total turn around time was about two weeks (and the result was an excellent sheath). In summary, I've never waited long enough to even think about the whereabouts of a knife I sent for service.
