The blade release jammed up inside and the blade would only shut halfway so because I forced it to shut and broke the back out a bit they told me it wouldn't be covered under warranty .the inside malfunctioned I would think that would be a defective knife and they said no can't help you.

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.

I would give no star at all for the service. Never ever come back ...

I bought the fasthawk and within 1 month the handle busted. I was communicating with a customer service rep and he told me that he was sending me a replacement handle and I was content. Then 4 months later still no handle and now they won't answer the DAMN phone or return emails. I will never buy another one of their products again.

It is no wonder SOG can offer a lifetime warranty, THEY DONT RETURN CALLS OR EMAILS. I dont thinks any one reads the emails. All I needed was a simple replacement cilp, free of charge as per SOG website. Now I know why, they dont send any clips out apparently. I have submitted 4 emails over the past year and a half and called numerous times, NO REPLY and NO CLIP in the mail. I will not be purchasing anymore SOG knives cause I'd hate to see how they handle a replacement blade or something major if it takes this long for a simple clip. I thing SOG has got to big to care about it's customer base OR they just dont give a crap! I have received better service by the IRS! Now that's pretty bad. K.Loyd Houston,TX
