“Five dollar or less letter openers”

roger B.
8/21/18

I have bought a lot of various knives/daggers from BUDK. I call them letter openers because I would never trust my life with a five dollar blade. However the blades I have received have all been as advertised and make me wonder how they would perform under stress. But for five bucks, they work fine for opening letters and packages - cutting string and such. Filled several drawers with 30 or so blades, so I am ready for the zombies. I don't see how they make a profit selling at such low prices.

“Missing screws and no blade”

K D.
2/16/24

Sitting here with my cousin and his order of (4) bushmaster OTF knives was delivered. All (4) are gifts for family members and are identical. One knife is missing (2) screws and another knife is missing the blade. Shipping took (5) days. My cousin just got off the phone with BudK customer service and has to wait 3 days for a return shipping label then wait for them to receive the bad products they sent him and another 5 days to see if they send him what he originally ordered. All the while not offering him any compensation. This company is a bad business! Please take heed to this company before deciding to order from here.

I was a little hesitant to buy a mystery bag but I got some awesome survival stuff and one hell of a knife. I can't wait to order my next mystery bag.

Have problems getting the batons to retract. Have to really hit them on the ground hard. Was hard at first to get to expand, but better now, but getting them to retract is still a problem

Excellent blades for your bucks. Speedy delivery, and daily specials keep me collecting. Their app could use a little tweaking, but good grades overall.

I ordered 2 items from the BUDK catalog. They arrived quickly and in great condition. They are both quality products at decent prices, and items I couldn't find in stores.

While some of their items are cheap, some of them are really good. The Shinwa swords are pretty good. They are cheap and pretty solid. I have cut through lots of cans of diet coke. The M48 stuff is good quality and also nice to the feel. Recently, I got a Shinwa sword which had a few small cracks in the blade. When I asked to return it, they sent me a return label (prepaid) within a few days. We had to call them, no hold or BS like that. The phone was picked up almost immediately. When I had questions, my E-mails where replied to within 10-20 minutes. Also, every few days, you can get free shipping too. I have saved HUNDREDS thanks to Budk. While I can mostly only stand up for their swords, the knife i got and the gas masks and sword carriers were also great. For all of them, they came in great working order and were $5-10 cheaper then they were on amazon. Shipping was FedEx which was OK. For the free shipping question, yes, assuming you make your purchase on the days where there is a free shipping code (every few days)

Most Items are of good quality. I Like the the full tang fixed blades the best. Buying the Bogo items saves a lot of money if you would like more then one.

This company CONSTANTLY messes up orders, and then instead of fixing the problem (throw common sense RIGHT out the window) they very childishly attempt to switch the blame onto the person calling expecting to get help from "customer service." More like customer disservice!!! Making problems worse is a C.S
D-bag named Jessica Perez. If you're foolish enough to order from these people.....even after seeing this large amount of unhappy ex-customers....and you get the above named "agent" (with the I.Q of used toilet paper) HANG UP IMMEDIATELY! This "person" doesn't listen to a word the customer says, while trying to be snarky & arrogant, even though she makes $7/hour and thinks she's better than you for God-knows what reason?! That's if you can understand the people who answer the phone to begin with! Instead of getting the stereotypical hard to understand Indian accent, you are welcomed by Billy Bob's redneck cousin, who is also his sister and wife. It goes from bad-to-worse if you decide to buy ANYTHING from this backwater, excuse for an online flea market. Go to the Better Business Bureau website if you have the same complaints as mine and it will ensure you all get the revenge....I mean justice that you SO deserve!
