Hey, we love to trade. We don't just trade for knives. We have traded for all kinds of things in the past. Generally speaking we tend to trade for things in the same wheelhouse as what we sell. For example, we would be much more interested in trading for a nice piece of elk antler, than the tail light of a '09 Silverado. I'm sure your tail light really is in 'like-new' condition, we just wouldn't know what to do with it. In the past a few of the more common things we have traded for are pelts, claws, ivory, skulls, unique militaria, gold, unique munitions, bone, exotic woods, interesting Alaskana, even unique books and references about knives. Please make sure that whatever you want to trade to us is legal. No matter how interesting it may be, or how curious we may be, we cannot accept any black market items, or items shipped illegally. If you have something you would like to trade, just reach out to us

Yes. We generally use USPS for all of our shipping, which is $34.65 at checkout. But we have used UPS, FedEx, and DHL in the past. If you live outside the United States and Canada, no sweat. Just contact us and we will work with you as best we can.

We buy, sell, and trade knives. When bringing your knives into us you have a couple options, each producing a different market value assesment. In general the options allow the customer to decide how much money the knife is worth to them based on how much involvemet they want in the sale, the services they want from us, and how quickly they want payment. Trade Option one is to use the knife as a trade-in on a different knife in our inventory, or one that we make. This option usually nets the customer the most bang-for-their-buck. Just how much your knife trades for depends heavily on what you want in exchange. Some manufacturers and custom makers are better trades than others. To have your knife valued this way you must have a knife you want to trade for in mind. Sell Option two is asking us to buy your knife outright. This option gets the customer the quickest money, and requires the least involvement from the seller. Consequently, the seller does not net as much as the other option. Appraisal Option three is asking us to appraise the knife and asses a fair market value which you may use as a guideline to sell the knife yourself. If you want to know what to ask for your knife in another sales venue, we will be happy to help. We can give you a fair and equitable price to ask on other sites such as eBay, Craigslist, Instagram, USN, etc. While this is the most amount of work for the customer, it also nets them the most money. Keep in mind that if we appraise it, we appraise it for retail and not trade-in/wholesale value. A cute little trick that some people seem to think is clever is to have us appraise their knife, then ask us to buy it at that amount. You're not the first to think that's funny, it's not. It's dumb. Stop it.

-Are you sending in scales or a full knife? If we have to disassemble what is sent it will be a $5.00 fee per item we have to take apart. If the knife or item is pinned together please contact us to see if it can be taken apart and reassembled. -orders for work under $100.00 will have shipping costs - See our shipping policy -If your titanium item is already colored, has paint of some sort or severe scratches / abrasions it will need to be Bead Blasted. Bead Blasting is $10 for one part/peice of the item, $20 for two, $30 for four and $40 for six. -How many items on your knife do you want anodized? It's per item(part). A set of knife scales is two items to be anodized. -Its important to keep in mind that your Foreground color must be a lower number than your background color. This is just a simple fact of how anodizing works -If you would like to incorporate your own art or design into the engraving / anodizing it is a flat $45 fee for the file creation on our side. It is a one time fee and we will send you the file we create for future use on other projects if you so wish. -If you choose to do any of the patterns we already have on file, it will be two layers of anodizing and will accrue engraving fees.

We wanted to pay tribute to the original ZT 0300 designed by Ken Onion with the new 0308 from Zero Tolerance. We added the iconic Tiger Stripe pattern to the mix along with the original colors available: Black, Coyote Tan and Ranger Green. We use several different processes and steps to add the aesthetic of the original 0300 Series -Bead blast of the blade and scales -1 stage of Cerakote is applied to solid color blades and the scales -2 Stages of Cerakote is applied to the blade for Tiger Striping -A fiber laser is employed to re mark logos and the original serial number of the knife that is being modified

The short answer is no. The long answer is that if you decide to do a warranty claim on your knife through Zero Tolerance you will have to provide a list of modifications made and by whom. We are a reputable dealer and knife maker so there is usually no issue.
