Josh wrote:have you ever tried to remove a polished screw? It just strips itself out. When you polish something you remove material . I have seen MANY knives that have been taken apart and the blade polished. This messes up the lock up 2/3 of the time. If you engrave your name on the knife it does not change the mechanical workings of the knife....So it is covered.
It is costing us more time to fix purposely ruined knives than what we could charge for replacement parts> It is not the parts but the time it takes to fit old parts to new It takes a LOT longer to fix a pimped knife than to build a new one.
We have to inspect and caliper EVERY part on a jacked up knife and try to get a new part to fit. I am sure that more questions will come up. We are open to hearing them. Just use your common sense when dealing with your knives. Will engraving ruin my knife? No.....Will taking apart my knife and polishing all of the steel parts ruin the lock up on my knife....Yes...So don't send it in because we won't fix it... We can't without replacing all of the parts. In the long run it would be cheaper to buy a new knife. If I use my knife to pry open a car door to rescue a dog and the blade breaks is it covered???? YES IT IS !!! If I dig a hole with my SMF and I dig through rocks and the tip breaks is it covered? why YES IT IS

To quote myself.......Abused knives we don't have issues with>It's the ones that get turned out we can't fix. (turned out is a nice way of saying pimped)
So feel free to ask as many questions as you want this thread is exactly for that purpose.Questions are free. Repairs on pimped knives are not.

From some of the screwed up mods I have seen on striders I know why they would change it.
