Last December I ordered a knife from Unique Blade. It was a "Shell Puller" with stag handles, at the cost of $89.99. It was to be a Christmas present for a good friend who was in town. 3 weeks after I received it the leaf spring broke. I was told to send it back for a replacement after they made it sound like the springs just don't break without tampering with them, which was kind of an insult. After waiting several weeks I contacted Unique Blade and was told they were out of stock. I kept offering to take another "Bill Deshivs Leverletto" with stag handles that seld for $79.00 ($10.00 less), plus a pair of brass knuckles paperweight that sells for $19.99. But that was out of the question, in fact, they would not even respond to that. Plus they seemed to be OUT OF STOCK on any other knife I liked or in that price range. Then I was told they had 1 Honey Horn shell puller they would send me that was in great working order. It came in, and what a disappointment. It had a wobbly blade, so around and around we went again. I finally settled for JUST the "Bill Deshivs $79.00 stag horn knife, and nothing extra. I basically lost $10.00 on the deal not counting the shipping back 2 times. Now after being opened a few hundred times, the spring broke in this one, and I received it it Febuary. I have had side openers for over 40 years and never had this problem before, especially 3 out of 3 times. Now they won't even deal with me, and say they can't find my order except for the one in Febuary. Buyers beware, their quality seems to be a little on the low side, and they won't honor their warrenty. The last knife I got was way too late for Christmas, so I kept it myself for work opening boxes, and yes it had to be sharpened. If you want quality look somewhere else. Here is the warrenty they state:
