Recently ordered a Daily Carry Co Titanium Parachute Knife. Knife arrived quickly with great packaging and some extra goodies. Upon further inspection, I was sent the aluminum version of the knife instead of the Titanium one that I ordered . Phone call to customer service to be told I had actually received a Titanium model , when I asked why the box said Aluminum the conversation changed to “ sorry about that , we will switch it out for you” then as luck would have it “ oops we’re are out of that one , but we do have another model for twice the price” , which I offered to to pay half the difference which is what I can buy the knife direct from Daily Carry Co with a military discount. Then was told “ nope according to policy we can only do exchanges for the exact amount and not even allow to purchase a more expensive model because that would violate their policy” . So ….. long story short, for shopping at Blade HQ. I get the added frustration of waiting to receive the wrong product and offer no other solution but to send it back because they were out of the one that I actually ordered in the first place. Makes you wonder if they were hoping I wouldn’t know the difference between Titanium and Aluminum. At any rate , that is not my first purchase from them , but will be the last. I just can’t see spending money and time for their compounding error only to be told I get to send it back. Honestly a discount code, a genuine sorry or even the ability to have a choice of another knife would have gone a very long way. To have no choice and be quoted company policy instead of options is a real non-starter for me . Blade HQ could and should do much better.

Hello!
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. I'm genuinely sorry that this experience left you feeling frustrated and disappointed, especially as a returning Blade HQ customer.
Receiving the wrong version of a product is frustrating enough, and I completely understand why having the item you originally ordered unavailable afterward made the situation even more disappointing. We also understand that the way the situation was communicated to you did not leave you feeling heard or valued as a customer. That's not the experience we want anyone to have with us.
We truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Your feedback regarding the communication, the lack of options provided, and how we handled the situation is valuable, and we'll make sure it's shared with the appropriate team.
We're very sorry we missed the mark here. We appreciate the purchases you've made with Blade HQ in the past, and we're disappointed that this experience has left you feeling like you won't shop with us again. We hope we can earn back your trust in the future. ~Tiffany

I’ve been collecting quality knives for about three years. I have learned a great deal about knives, steel, and locking mechanisms during that time. BladeHQ has been invaluable to me in acquiring the education I desired for this hobby. Their website has great educational content. Their on line videos are very entertaining and educational. Shopping on BladeHQ is a real pleasure as their selection is phenomenal, not to mention their affordable prices and frequent deals.

Terrible on how they handle the exclusives drops. They have you wait in line "online wait" thinking oh cool they have a system so advanced they have you wait inline 'online' because there algorithms dectect there are enough knives to be sold at ONE "1" PER PERSON. So why wait inline to be told, we are sold out? Ridiculous
Reply from Blade HQ2026-07-23
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your frustration with the exclusive drop experience.
We understand how disappointing it can be to wait in the virtual queue and then find out the item is no longer available. The waiting room is used to help manage the high volume of traffic during these highly anticipated releases, but joining the queue does not guarantee that inventory will still be available when it is your turn to shop.
We appreciate you sharing your concerns, and your feedback will be passed along as we continue looking for ways to improve the experience for future exclusive releases. We hope you'll consider giving us another opportunity in the future. ~Tiffany
