A video that needed making bravo funnily enough the only Knife I have been disappointed with for quality was a Case, borderline issues so kept it but soured me from ever buying another, at the price point you expect better my Rough Ryders were all miles in front for F&F, agree with all your points. 😁

I am on my 3rd Kizer Mini Roach. It will be delivered Friday. First one had a click in the lock and up and down play when open, the second one had a tip that was ground so thin I could bend it with my finger. Third times a charm right?

Great topic, I'd have to say it does drive me nuts. Because I know I will have to return it, and wait to get it back. I let them have the chance to make it right, mistakes happen. Case warranty works, but takes a long time. The one time using the warranty, with the only Case I've bought without looking at it first, and it took them 5 1/2 months to fix it. Rosecrafts warranty works great, sent a replacement before the email confirming the replacement. Thanks for sharing JB, be safe.

I own over 500 fixed and folding knives and have had over 20 lemons. I tend to buy new knives from well known knife websites instead of the small ones in case its bad and I can send it back and get a refund. I've bought three Rosecraft traditional knives in various design patterns where I literally could not pull out the blade from the handle and sent them back for a refund or exchange. I bought a Buck Ranger with micarta scales where the blade tip was touching the side of the interior of the knife and despite readjusting the pivot screw, I could not get the blade to stop touching the inside of the knife handle and sent it back to Amazon. I've had Case knives where the bone handle was cracked and I sent it back. I sent five or six Case knives back because they weren't sharp and the edge of the blade was uneven and very rough. Again, these knives were $60 to $100 and I sent it back. About 99 percent of my knives were bought new, not used. I own over 120 Rough Ryders and my expectations are low on them but I've had a RR spring come cracked and was unable to pull out the blade out of the handle and I sent them back or got a refund. I had a Rough Ryder where the blade was exposed out of the handle and I sent it back. I bought a new Rough Ryder Carbon knife and the blade was black in several spots and I could not remove the black spots (the patina) and I got a refund. Strangely enough I've neve had a bad Victorinox or Civivi /Sencut/We knife as far as quality control

If I get a lemon that's still in production, and the company doesn't stand behind it. It will be the last knife of that company. Depends how much the knife was and if I purchased it new.🤷 I got a few lemons before. SOG and Kershaw. Some bigger companies, but they fixed or replaced the knife. Knife warranty matters.😉 Great video JB.👏

I had an issue with SMKW ordered a knife that was supposed to be assisted that was listed that way in their catalog. I got it and then it wasn’t assisted. I called up and they checked and it was wrong on their part but the issue was, I would have to send it back to them and pay the shipping for them to credit me back. I wasn’t too happy.

I think it's about reasonable expectations, and there's plenty of things that I do to a knife right out of the box to make it better for me. But things like bad detents and action issues that can't be resolved with the normal tricks are definitely going to get returned. But the big thing is how companies and brands deal with consumers and like your experience with Case I've had my share of encounters where I came away with a bad taste in my mouth and those companies are on my black list. In this day and age there are just way too many choices for a knife guy to settle for less than complete satisfaction with a purchase.
