was a great company. Service is terrible. Never again

The owner Changed the font is asked for because the knife was for a girl. Lisa didn't wait for my approval, but changed the font and sent the knife. When i stated I wanted the same font i asked for, the same font I'd had on 3 prior purchases, i was told it was her choice and i should be happy because 'any girl would like it' which is irrelevant- i want the font i asked for. I wanted the font the same. She just became angry on the phone and ended the phone call. I thought I had found a mom and pop shop i could trust after having made several prior purchases, but i won't use them again.

No complaints about the product but customer service is sub-par. They are hard to reach, not willing to help and don't follow up.

I sent my pocket knife to be sharpened on 06/05/20. This review is being conducted on 09/15/20. As of this review, my knife is still AWOL. The worst part is that everytime I contact them, I get the same answer, "It is awaiting final inspection and will be sent out in two weeks". Today I am told that the wild fires in Oregon are halting the shipping process. Luckily I didn't pay too much for the knife and am currently shopping around for a better one. I understand the company may be doing the best as they can, but the least Kershaw could do is send a simple email to their customers, keeping them advised of the many delays.

I have purchased 3 each one the tip-lock breaks. The Tip-lock is made extremely cheap, out of plastic. I have tried contacting customer service several times and only get lied to on shipping the replacement part. I have thrown all three away and will get a different brand. David Hodges

This is a scam . Avoid at all cost . if you gonna buy from them they will not bee sending you anything. I try to email them, call them - no contact what so ever.

Sent my knife to Kershaw to be sharpened. They sent me back someone else's knife. I contacted them about the error and immediately arranged to send the "wrong" knife back. After dozens of follow up calls to them, most involving them lying to me about the return status of my knife, I received my knife back 7 weeks later. My experience with their customer service was terrible. I will not purchase another product from them.

Note that this parent company (Two Point Enterprises) operates several retail websites: hand-tools.com, gerber-tools.com, kershaw-knives.net, and sog-knives.net. I placed an order with this company and received no email confirmation or email of any kind. A week or so later, having received no notice of my order or of shipping, I emailed to request a cancellation. I was informed by a representative (who curtly insisted that they HAD sent me an order confirmation) that it was too late to cancel the order as "it has already shipped." Days later I received an email stating that the shipping label had just been created and the order was about to be shipped out – the rep had simply lied about the shipment. I contacted them again and voiced my dissatisfaction, as they could have canceled my order as it had not even shipped (as the representative had falsely claimed). The same rep then rudely and dismissively gave me a vague spiel about how they can't cancel orders due to their shipping policies. She even flatly stated that it takes up to 11 days(!) to ship out orders. On what planet is this acceptable? It's clear that this company is a drop-shipping operation – they do not keep much of their inventory on hand and ship it from elsewhere. This results in long shipping times, miscommunication, and poor service in general, as was displayed here. The rude customer "service" rep also informed me that if I wished to make a return, they have a 20% restocking fee. Not only is this wildly excessive, but I can tell you (having run an online business for years myself) that "restocking fees" are nonsense. It costs nothing to accept returns – it's a tactic to pressure customers into NOT making returns. "Restocking fees" are a practice you most often see with shady ebay sellers. TL;DR: Four strikes: 1) It took almost two weeks for my initial order to even ship out (with no confirmation email). 2) Despite this, they curtly refused to cancel my order days before it shipped. 3) RUDE and dismissive customer service. 4) Extortive 20% "restocking fee." Take your money to a professional business who actually cares, there are plenty out there. This amateur hour company's service is abysmal on every level, all the way down. Avoid.
