Lifetime Warranty Against Defects
If your shears ever have a quality problem, we send you a new pair, free, and pay the shipping both ways, for as long as you own them. Sharpening elsewhere doesn't void it.

The Lifetime Warranty Against Defects covers the quality of your shears: if there's ever a flaw in materials or workmanship, we send you a new pair at no charge and pay the shipping both ways. Replacement Pricing covers everything else, like loss, a drop on tile, or wanting a backup pair: the same model and size at 50% off, once, within two years of delivery.
Yes. Use any qualified sharpener you trust. Sharpening elsewhere doesn't void your warranty. Damage caused during sharpening isn't a manufacturing defect, so it isn't covered.
Codes don't combine on one order, so use the one that fits. Need the same pair again? Replacement Pricing takes 50% off. Want something different? Your VIP code takes 25% off.
Yes. Choose Shop Pay at checkout to split your order into interest-free payments, subject to approval. You'll see the options for your order before you pay.
Saki Shears and Intelio Steel. Joewell and Yasaka shears carry their maker's warranty instead, aren't part of Replacement Pricing or VIP, and can be returned or exchanged only if unopened.
