GREAT!

I love the products I received! They were all exactly as described in the catalog. Great quality and customer service was such a pleasure to deal with! I would definitely recommend this company to my friends and family. Will be ordering again!

The ordering process and delivery time went well, but the three Skinner Knives showed up with the cheapest Sheaths I have ever seen! All three knives had absolutely NO blade edge or point! Totally unusable! These were purchased as Christmas gifts and with the little time between receiving them and Christmas, I needed to drop them off at a professional knife sharpener with hopes they can do something with them! I'm currently searching for usable sheaths as well! All adding extra cost and stress!

Buyer Beware
June 10, 2022

I just received several items from BUDK. Both knives and a sword. The products are low quality. Actually they are crap. I spoke with customer service and was told they would give me a refund once they received the products. But because the items are not damaged, I have to pay return postage. The return postage is costing me $26.00. Can you say ouch? I'm going to buy from Amazon in the future.

Everything I have ordered so far was worth the money. I bought a cheap sword that had a chord wrapped grip that unwrapped after a couple swings at a tree, but it was like $12 and not meant to be used as an axe. The sword was sharp and looked cool. I would just be a bit leery of chord wrapped handles or buy an axe or machete if you plan on clearing some brush. At least it didn't break in half like the $30 sword I bought from a different store.

I have ordered quite a bit of items from Budk.com, including knives, machetes, crossbows and darts and other equipment and they have delivered ontime and they keep you posted when you will receive your items. This is an excellent company. They are quick to deliver. You can not go wrong. Try them you'll like them. Bye Bye for now. Stuart

Good Molle Pouch
December 5, 2017

Looks to be well made and just the right size for my duty belt. You can really stuff this little thing. I have my phone, note pad, tactical pen, survival pen, extra pistol magazine, pack of smokes, and a partridge in a pear tree in there. Just kidding about the bird in the tree. Merry Christmas and thanks again BudK!

The Go-To Place
March 27, 2022

Like the title says this catalog and on line store is the go-o place for cutlery. The Bud-K catalog and on line store is top notch. Whether you are in the market for cutlery ranging from domestic/cooking knives to survival or self defense weapons out to exotic edged weapons, this is the place to go. I just placed an order on Tuesday, and it arrived 4 days later. Not the usual 7-10 working days (or longer) The order was professionally packaged, and the knife is of outstanding quality. (The M-48 cutlery line defines the standard) Prompt, courteous service, superb variety and reasonable prices. Too bad other business don't measure up.

The only reason for the 4/5 service is that I never received a tracking email to know when my package was to arrive. I got a promo code for free economy shipping so I guess that's what I get, but I would've liked to have a tracking number emailed to me. Aside from that, the products are better than I expected for the price by far, the packing was quality and professional, and even included a coupon for a future shopping discount. Overall great experience, I will shop again.

I collect weapons as a hobby, and I heard about this site from a friend. I checked it out, and I was amazed at just how many extensively different weapons and categories they had. Their prices are super cheap, and the items are really good quality. They sell so many things on here, that I still haven't put a dent in all the things I want to get from them! I would definitely recommend this site for any avid collector!

Cool stuff at low prices
December 7, 2017

I ordered several of the goblets, they are pretty detailed for the cheap price u pay, one of them was broke when it arrived, im sure i could have called them and they would have sent me another one but as cheaply priced as they are i just put a lil super glue and bam, good as new. So overall i have been satisfied with everything i have bought from budk so far.

I enjoyed shopping on this site. It has a lot of interesting things you can't find elsewhere. The prices are pretty good and the quality is better than I would have expected. I would recommend you go there and look around. Seems to have a little something for everyone. If you have a problem with your order the customer service is outstanding.

I made a mistake with my order and customer service was super awesome. They answer the phone right away and you get to talk to a HUMAN BEING! They also have a live text chat available. Super nice people and very reliable and caring. I will be shopping more with them from now on.

Budk is my go to online store for budget knives. I have had three items to return and all were handled without a glitch. A phone call or an email was enough to get a return postage paid label. Credit for return was easy. I generally wait for specials like 20 percent off and free shipping when I shop online. All items arrive timely - never a lost package.

It was a great novelty gift- the intended recipient has the Wolf as his emblem-and this item fits in with his collection of Wolf motif items perfectly-just perfect. Thanks, it got there, on time and was fully appreciated.

Mystery bug out bag.
December 19, 2017

Got this for my 14yr old son as a Xmas gift. He'll be pretty stoked about it. Everything showed up in good condition without any rips, tears or missing pieces. Everything was also individually packaged which is also nice. He'll probably put all of it to use on our next camping/hiking trip.
