Reasonable expectations to the life of a leather item

Recommended Posts

From all the guarantees and warranties that I have seen through the years, none of them cover owner negligence or abuse. I have a friend that makes custom knives. They come with a lifetime guarantee, as long as you don't abuse the knife. I know of two that he has replaced, and five people that were just out of luck for doing stupid things. I have never seen a 'no questions asked guarantee'.

Yeah that makes sense...I could also see "professional use" being an exception with knives (not sure if he's doing kitchen knives) but a chef who uses the same knife all day, everyday will eventually wear it to a nub...or if the back is thick it becomes less of a knife and more of a hatchet.
