I see that you gentlemen are likely not actually using any of these products, and seem to be more collectors, in which case Iām sure such a piss poor customer service attitude, coupled with a no where close to ālifetime warrantyā doesnāt bother you. Iām sure all your knives, are nice and pristine in a case. And thatās fine if thatās your gig. Some people like fat chicks too.
But for the rest of us itās more than important that we can count on a warranty to cover the tools being used day in and day out. Weāre talking aluminum and M390 here people, stick to the knives in question. If I break a knife handle made from aluminum by dropping it, how do I know there wasnāt a defect in the machining to begin with? How am I to know all the handle screws have been set and torqued correctly if one falls out and disappears during normal use?
