I sent my Benchmade Adamas to Benchmade for repairs, it arrived on 12/3 and its been quite some time and I am getting REALLY WORRIED about it. It is normal to take this long? Their website says 9-11 days.

So those 9-11 days are just lies?
i waited about 6 weeks when i sent a benchmade in for a new blade. i ended up calling to check the status and they asked if i wanted a regular or a black blade. no idea why they never contacted me since they had a question, but i would call them to check status.

I've sent folders in to BM before, and they do come back just fine...and sharp. You will be happy; you need patience. The last time I sent in a folder (a different manufacturer), it took two months, but I got back, in essence, a new knife. Not a biggie unless you're 95 yrs old and counting.

p.s. Besides, Bill broke his arm and is off on sick leave. Jerry is in France with his wife, and Marjorie called in sick for the last three days, and your folder hasn't been unwrapped yet. But it's there on the shelf...and they will get to it just fine.

. It at best it is only 1 day late or if you only count business days, it's still within the 9 - 11 period. You'll only know what's up if you talk to them. Also remember, it's the Christmas rush, so everything is taking longer.

Business days from the time they get it.
How far to you live from Oregon City, OR? It takes the post office a while. Especially since it's almost Christmas time, the busiest time of the year to send anything anywhere.
Plus, they're human too. I'm sure they knock off whenever they can for the Holidays.

No, it's called an estimated turn around time. Considering we are smack dab in the middle of 2 of the biggest holidays of the year, and the mail is slow due to volume, it's to be expeted.
