Fällkniven AB warrants to the original owner that Fällkniven knives will be free from defects in materials and workmanship. Each new knife from Fällkniven AB is covered by a ten year warranty if the knife is bought from an authorized dealer or distributor, make sure to save the receipt. Buying from other sources will lead to a three year warranty. Knives purchased on the Internet through discount websites are not entitled to our warranty coverage. Fällkniven AB will, without charge, repair or replace at our option, any knife returned for warranty work and found to be defective by us. Warranty matters are always decided by Fällkniven AB, not by your dealer.
The blade tip and edge are parts of a knife that usually are exposed to wear and tear, these parts are not covered by our warranty unless it’s obvious that the damage is a result of a material defect. Only when we have examined the knife we are able to provide an opinion about that.
A knife is a precision cutting tool and should be handled with care and consideration. Light blows on the blade spine (with a branch or small piece of wood) to split tender kindling from a dry, straight-grained pine or similar can be done, for splitting firewood in general, an ax is a correct tool. Note that cold makes all steel brittle. Never pound on the blade spine with any other kind of tool like for example a hammer or a sledgehammer, then you might break the knife. The photos below show the result of incorrect use.
Sheaths and whetstones are not covered by our warranty unless they are apparently faulty manufactured.
