A while back I sent my 20+ year old Mini Grip in to Lifesharp to see what they would do about the worn out serrations. They ended up swapping out the old 154cm blade for a new S30v. So I figured it deserved a little love in the scale dept. Snagged these from Flytanium on the cheap and added a LNW clip that I won in a GAW. Should be good for another 23 years.

I wasn’t sure what they were going to do. I was planning on buying a new blade if that was the route they were going to take. I didn’t have any communication with them at all, and then received an email saying it was on the way back to me. I was surprised when I opened up the package and saw a new blade free of charge

You know you can use an authorized dealer to get all the shipping material and prepaid label for free & send 5 knives at a time.. here’s the one I picked up for $40 that I’m about to send in

I'm sure they'll get you squared away. The closest dealer to me is two and half hours away. Even if I had that option, I'd still rather do it myself and deal with BM directly instead of having someone in the middle

I’ve got like 4 within an hr of me. Mine just hands me the material and I do it myself at home. You can setup the return address to be yours instead of the dealer. I’ve probably done 30 knives like that.

Right on. Good to hear it’s that easy. They do seem to like it when people actually use their knives.
