By placing an order the buyer represents that he or she is of legal age and that the products ordered will be used in a lawful manner. We assume no responsibility for any harm or injury resulting from the sale, trade, use or handling of any product purchased from us. It is the responsibility of the buyer, not the seller, to ascertain and obey all applicable local, state, federal and international laws in regard to the possession, and or use, of any item purchased. We are unable to provide refunds in the event that the package that you have ordered was seized by customs or other agencies. Consult your local and state laws before ordering if you are in doubt.
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.
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:
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.

"Growing up in Texas I’ve been an avid collector of handmade knives for most of my life. Early on I recognized the creativity and ingenuity that goes into making custom knives and I’ve always admired both the art and function that they represent. Retiring from the oil and gas industry I decided to make knives of my own design and consequently the pleasure of meeting collectors nationally and internationally. My shop for making handmade custom knives is in Dallas, Texas. I’ve been very fortunate to build a terrific clientele in the short number of years I’ve been in this profession. My theory is really quite simple; make it unique and artistic, yet at the same time it needs to be functional and well balanced. Using only the finest steels and handle materials, I never compromise on quality. All knives are made with tapered tang’s. Thanks to my many friends within the industry that have helped mentor me with their support and patient guidance. I’ve been fortunate and thankful to gain national recognition for my work but it only motivates me towards that next out-of-the-ballpark knife."
