I was disappointed in the shipping options , despite paying for the most expensive option it will be 4 business days and two weekend days until I receive my knife …4 business day delivery should not cost me almost $20. Worked in shipping for years fedex has overnight for that price

shipment has been delayed even though i paid extra for xpresspost shipping. I've sent two messages to support and received no help. Disastrous service to be honest. Won't be shopping with you again.

The shipping method used to ship the purchase to the store is beyond awful. I have several emails all with conflicting information, no tracking number, not even an email from the shipping company (no idea who is shipping) and no recourse to find out additional info

Sorry for any confusion here! For in store pick we cant give out tracking information as the order will be included in a larger box going to the store with regular stock and others online orders. Im not sure exactly which emails your getting but they should mostly be "its shipped" if you are getting conflicting info from them please email us at service@houseofknives.ca thank you

I ordered and now am awaiting the delivery of my order to the Houes of Knives Victoria, BC location (Mayfair Mall); when my paid for order arrives the store will be notifying me to come and pick it up.

I recently purchased a Civivi flipper and boy it is sharp. I know one expects a knife to be sharp right out of the box, but its been my experience that that is not the case. Civivi is one of the exceptions as the blade was razor sharp. The knife (Civivi Sendy Micarta green) has a nice heft and balance to it, with a pair of tweezers and a toothpick included! The pocket clip allows the knife to ride in your pants pocket very discretely.
This knife is an excellent value and the service from H of K was exceptional. Shipping was fast and the communication from the company was second to none. Other companies could learn from the H of K!

I'm pretty happy with the shopping experience. Something that would make your store and experience even better would be hardness (HRC) and steel composition (e.g. XRF) testing. Heat treat has a major impact on the knife performance, and knowing what you'll get is worth quite a lot. Furthermore, especially with knives made in China, there is always the chance of the steel not being what was specified, so a verification could add a lot of peace of mind and keep everyone honest.

I would definitely buy a knife that has a little HRC test dimple.

Interesting idea! Ill pass this over to the larger team. I know most of our data has to come direct from the brand but it cant hurt to ask. Thanks for the review Simon!

Reason for 4 star.

CONS: Ordered manix 2 and waited almost 3 weeks. I then contacted HOK, they told me my address was wrong, I told them no, that is the correct address. Package was sent the next day.

PROS: Great customer service.

CONS: Lost my exictement and was not happy no one contacted me to resolve this. A quick call or message would of fix this.

PROS: Everything else was fine.

Results: KNIFE is 5 Star, I just didn't have the greatest experience, although like said previously they fixed it. I am happy with it, it was brand new, not like many company's I see now days where you open it and the package was already open. It was brand new. Knife is a bit bigger then I would like however I am getting used to it. I love they way it opens and absolutely love the way it feels in my hand. Will buy again from this company.

Item arrived quickly and in perfect condition. The knife is exactly as described. It looks great, is functional and very sharp. It is now a 'little brother' to my Kizer Escort, also previously purchased from HOK. Thanks very much!
