1. Factory made knivesExample: Buck, Case or Kershaw are factory made knives. First, try the factory that made your knife if it is a current or recent production model. It may be under the manufacturer's warranty as most of the better ones give a lifetime warranty. The manufacturer is the one who will make the final call to repair your knife under their warranty. You can look up their web site and then find their address or telephone number by their listing here: Knife Manufacturers Normally the factory does the warranty repair on their knife not a dealer who sells their knife. So you will need to send your knife to the factory to see if they will repair it under warranty or if there is a charge for the repair. Shipping your repair directly to the manufacturer will avoid delay. Self-repair of most factory made knives will void your warranty. It is for this reason that most factories do not sell parts for repair. If your knife needs repair, send it to the correct manufacturer. The repair may be much more than the knife is worth. If your knife is no longer made try the manufacturer anyway, maybe they can help. If your knife is old and the manufacturer is no longer in business then try one of the repair places listed here: Knife Repair - Restoration Sometimes you can find a local custom knife maker who will repair or restore your knife. Be aware that you will need to find someone that has the time, parts and knowledge to repair your knife. Finally, your knife may not be able to be repaired at any cost because there simply are no parts left and no one who knows how to fix it. In addition, talking about cost, the repair may be much more than the knife is worth, but if it is important to you or has sentimental value then the cost may not be an issue. We do not have repair information or a repair service other than what is given on this page. Good luck! Knife companies that are out of business in recent years.

help you find Makers who do not have web sites and it has a very complete

Switchblade knivesSwitchblade knives in most states in the USA are against the law to carry or repair since 1957. So most companies that could repair such knives do not. The law treats switchblades as contraband and made it illegal to transport automatic knives across state lines. You may be able to find an individual that can and will repair your knife but do not count on it. Remember we do not repair knives nor do we have knife parts. Also remember the cost of the knife, it may not be worth repairing. See above for more help. More information on Knife Laws.
Where can I purchase accessories for my factory made knife?All pouches, foldout tools, sheaths, interchangeable blades and other accessories, if not available through your local dealer, can be purchased through the Customer Services Department or Retail Sales Department at the factory that made your knife. This applies if your knife is current production. If your knife is no longer made the factory may not still have accessories for it. I think factories are required to keep parts and accessories for 5 years after the model is discontinued and then after that period it is their choice what they do. You can look up your factory and then find their address or telephone number by their listing here: Knife Manufacturers Cutler's Cove does not have accessories unless they are listed on the site for sale.
