Outstanding Service!

I had a problem with a knife I purchased so I contacted customer support through email. I received a fast reply and Heather assisted me with my questions etc., regarding an exchange I wished to make. Heather was wonderful to deal with and quickly helped to resolve my problem. The service was fast, kind and really outstanding! I will continue to be a loyal customer of The Knife Center!

They don’t support veterans or respond to emails

I’ve emailed this company on three separate occasions over the course of several months asking if they offer a discount for veterans. They never responded to any of my emails. They straight up, ignored me three different times! Then I called them to ask if they offer discounts to veterans, and they rudely replied that they do not. I will not support this company since they do not support the troops that enable them to do business safely in the USA. It’s a pity that a company, so Big has such little empathy for supporting veterans. I’m going to tell everyone I know about this And get all my buddies in the service to stop buying from this soulless corporation.

Hello John. Thank you for taking the time to review. We've looked into this and see that your email from late February 2023 was replied to on February 27 at 3:24 PM ET.

We do not offer discounts as we have a rewards program where you earn points for every dollar spent. Once you accumulate enough points, you can redeem your points for a gift card, which is as good as cash here at KnifeCenter. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns.

I placed an order at 9:36 pm on…

I placed an order at 9:36 pm on Saturday and sent an email on Sunday stating I would like to add an additional item.

I called first thing Monday morning as well and was told that my order was already processed even though a business day has not passed.

This is rather frustrating and working at several fulfillment centers in my life it makes no sense either. I asked if I could be given some sort of free shipping code considering that an item could not be added to the current order and was denied that as well.

This will be my first and last purchase from knifecenter. I will get the additional part I need elsewhere even if it is more expensive.

There Are Two Shining Stars Here.

The first being the KnifeCenter for their excellent customer service, within a week of ordering the knife, it was in my hand; the second being Kershaw for the exquisitely crafted knife. My experience was totally five star. Pictures do not do this blade justice - it is so beautifully constructed, the action is so precise, I just can't stop to rave about this product, I'm a total believer!

shipping options

I recently made a purchase and was not given the option for faster shipping, other than that you guys are awesome. I spoke to Rachel in customer service and she was able to add a faster shipping rate for me, thank you, Mike

You shipped my knife right away

You had my knife in stock, confirmed it, shipped it out right away and I got it…along with a gift paring knife. With all of the scams out there it’s nice to deal with a reputable company. Before I made the order I called Kershaw and they said you were a legitimate dealer.

In it for the long haul - these guys stick to their promises

I ordered a Spyderco Paysan a full 18 months ago. Spyderco werent making them. They just did a new run, and 18 months later, Knifecenter fulfilled my order at the price from 2021 - amazing. I didnt expect to ever get the knife ,let alone at 80$ below current list price. Great service, very appreciative, thank you.

KnifeCenter would be Great if a Military Discount or Free Shipping Was Available.

A Military Discount or Free Shipping would be Great if it was offered. Other Companies Provide for a Discount. Would you consider doing so? Would like the possibility and would keep coming back and also Pass the name along!

Thank you for your service and feedback. We do not offer a military discount at this time as we have a rewards program where you earn points for every dollar spent. Once you accumulate enough points, you could redeem those points for KnifeCenter Gift Cards, which is as good as cash here at KnifeCenter. Most items get up to 5% back in rewards with some items getting 10% back! In reference to free shipping, we offer free shipping on orders over $95 shipping within the US (excludes oversized and heavy items). Feel free to reach out if you have any other questions.

Profoundly good customer service from Malachi and Knifecenter

Malachi @ Knifecenter's call center was extremely helpful and kind on the phone with my latest order... and he has been very kind and helpful on past orders as well... as have all of your staff that i have had the pleasure of dealing with on past business with Knifecenter...
Knifecenter's customer service is so refreshing ! being able to call and place orders and do business by phone with your very kind, helpful, and professional staff is also very refreshing... i will continue to business with Knifecenter whenever i can...
Most people complain when they don't like something and seem to seldom say a good word when there's one to be said... i believe in saying a good word when there's one to be said... and in Knifecenter's case... there is certainly a very good word to be said... thank you... and your management, and all of your personnel; and Malachi in particular for such profoundly good customer service, and such a pleasant buying experience . . .
