Hi 'Beltfed', Couple of choices:
You can have a local professional work out the chip on your 940, OR you can send it up to Benchmade, which is sometimes a better deal. All you do is wrap the knife and put the knife in a box along with $5 cash for return shipping. Don't send the knife in its original box, as that box will not be returned, your knife will returned in a grey "repair" box. Here's Benchmade's mailing address:
300 Beavercreek Road
Oregon City, OR 97045
If you call BM at: 800-800-7427 you can ask for customer service to ask how long the turnaround time is, typically it's around two weeks.
Hope that helps.
