Warranty and Blade replacement question on the zt0560

[ShepardCC]

I was wondering if anodizing the titanium voids the warranty?

Does acid and stone washing the titanium void the warranty

Can you still participate in the blade replacement program if its been acid and stone washed?

Thank you in advance

It voids the warranty on the parts that you modify, but not the entire knife. So if you anodize the handle and a defect emerges in the blade, you are still good to go. However, if you cause some kind of reaction (like a acid bath) to the lock bar face and it comes out with defeating or lockup issues, then you'll have to pay an out of warranty cost for a new back handle if it is needed.

When it doubt, call KAI and ask. They really are a pleasure to talk with on the phone or via email.
