Layaway Information

Layaway Policies

We offer a layaway plan on select products so you may pay for your order over a period of 60 days. Products that are eligible for layaway will show "Layaway Available: Yes" on the product page.

Here's how it works:

The total amount of the order excluding shipping, tax, or fees is divided into three (3) equal payments. The first payment is due with the order, the second payment is due 30 days later, and the final payment is due 60 days after the order.

There is a $15 non-refundable fee for layaway orders. This fee is added to the first payment along with the shipping and any tax. The first payment is made when the order is placed.

Example: Your order total is $300 plus $12.75 shipping and handling. If you select the layaway option, your payments would be:

  • $127.75 (1/3 of purchase = $100 + $15 layaway fee + $12.75 shipping)
  • $100.00 (1/3 of purchase = $100)
  • $100.00 (1/3 of purchase = $100)

If your initial payment is made by credit card, we will automatically process the 2nd and 3rd payments at the appropriate time using the same credit card information. You will be reminded via email that a payment will be charged. If you need to change this for any reason, please contact us.

For payments made other than credit card, payment must be received within seven (7) days of the due date or the order is subject to cancellation. You will receive a reminder via email that a payment is due.

If you wish to complete payment early and have your order shipped, you may contact us at any time during the 60 day period. There is no penalty for prepayment.

Additional products may be added to a layaway order without penalty. A new payment schedule will be calculated based on when additional products are added.

If you wish to complete payment early and have your order shipped, you may contact us at any time during the 60 day period. There is no penalty for early payment.

Cancellations of layaway orders are subject to a restocking/processing fee of 10% of the order total (not including tax and shipping costs). This restocking fee is in addition to the $15 non-refundable layaway fee.

About the Maker

BladesIIB Knives (Bud Beets)

BladesIIB (Blades 2 B) is a custom knife shop created by Bud Beets. The Roman Numeral II is for second generation knife maker since Marty Beets (Bud’s Dad) also makes custom knives. The 2 B’s for Bud Beets and Blades because that is what they are. The focus for the last 20 years was on fixed blade knives like his Dad, but a desire to make folders led to the creation of a new lock design, the Triple"B"S, which Bud patented in 2021. Bud was born in Arizona, and grew up in British Columbia where he worked full time as a machinist after high school, receiving his machinist journeyman certification in 1992. After that he went to college in Arizona, then joined the US Army where he served in the Military Police Corps for over 5 years. His Dad helped him make his first three knives in 2001. He currently works in the pharmaceutical industry and spends his nights and weekends in his home shop making knives. He does all his own manual machining and CNC work on each knife. All the bevels are hollow ground by hand and he does all the file work by hand. Bud also does all the heat treating and tempering on site so each knife is truly a one man creation from start to finish. Any leather work or Kydex work for sheaths is also done by Bud. Needless to say, these knives are custom made in low numbers and all his folding knives are named after Cactus you would find in Arizona. Bud hopes you enjoy his knives!
