Translation:


"Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, You break it, you bought it, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, ".

My translation is you can't take it apart to clean them anymore. So how are you supposed to clean it if you can't disassemble it? From what I'm gathering and we don't have any warranty

Attention everyone, please fasten your seatbelts…we will be approaching Gerberville in approximately 15 min. If you look out of your windows at this time, you can appreciate a nice view of Camillustown. Thank you for flying Generic Blades airlines!

I believe that train also passes through Schradesburg.

That disassemble clause is there because people disassemble their knives and sometimes cross thread a screw or something. GSM is not going to warranty someone else's work. I think the translation is, If you take it apart and break something while doing so, that's on you boo.

Well that stands without reason. If you strip or screw it's on you obviously. But I clean my knives religiously after using them and I do take them apart to the Bare Bones and clean everything. If I stripped the screw I don't expect them to repair it for me.

LOL! I purchased a fixed blade Schrade a while back cause I thought it looked nice…pulled it out one day (never been used) and it had rust spots on it. Total piece of crap.

Did you bought that one 30+ years ago ?
Or new, progressive one ?
 
Everybody got that on paper with every knife bought
No revelation at all

There is no warranty, or service team at Cold Steel. GSM fired them so they could focus on re-selling Chinese made junk to the young and gullible.

Sad. If I’m not mistaken, Buck has a lifetime warranty on their knives…you can also send them in to be re-sharpened.
