Can’t say enough about my experience with honey badger. Knife was sharp out of the box and arrived quick. When I mistakenly ran my knife through the dryer I lost some parts and thought I would be buying a new one, when I contact customer service, they not only sent me the parts I needed but also helped me identify parts I didn’t know I was missing. All within the hour. Really can’t say enough, honey badger customer service is probably the best I’ve ever experienced

Just got my 1st knife yesterday, and I must say, from the ones I looked at and investigated, Honey Badger stood out for me and I am extremely happy with my choice.

I do not own a a Honey Badger knife at the moment but I’ve heard nothing but good about these guys! I’m a beginning knife enthusiast and I live for the more budget friendly and on the occasion one that is more expensive for my collection. I’m adding all knives from different brands and if I won a knife from Honey Badger then they will have a spot in my collection and hopefully grow with the other brands I have now. Here’s to winning giveaways 🤘

Best pocket knife I’ve owned. Have carried all the major brands for years. And great options in other brands, but what impressed with this brand is truly the quality of the blade, fit and finish. This is a gentleman’s/grown up’s knife though. Thin super sharp blade. If you use a knife as a screw driver and to jam into hard things, look elsewhere.

Just bought the honeybadger knife HB1017 flipper medium and I am well satisfied with it except for the lock bar. When you close the blade the release nub has a sharp edge that hits the end of your thumb. I filed the edge off without a problem but I feel this should be addressed by the designer.

Honey Badger knives are obviously built from quality, reliably sound materials to withstand vast and rugged conditions while simultaneously flaunting a full array of blade/handle shapes and designs ranging from more tried and true classic looks to more unexpected, innovative and eye-catching, yet still finding itself repeatedly snug in that go-to, forget-anything-but-this-one, even-running-way-too-late, oh-no-H0£¥ §H%actually-all-those-knife spot

I have had a Larger Honey Badger Drop Point Flipper pocket knife for several years as my everyday carry knife. It sharpens easily, holds an edge and has worked flawlessly. Until I accidentally left it in my pants and washed it. The agitation flung it around in my washer & I didn’t hear it until late in the cycle. Inside the washer, my knife was open and after retrieving it, it wouldn’t close. The blade was bent and upon further review, I found the blade was broken up near the hole through the blade. I knew Honey Badger sold parts to their knives so I thought since it was my fault, I’d just order another blade. However, I couldn’t find any blades for sale. So I sent an email to their customer service and got a reply that day. I explained what I’d done and asked if I could buy a blade since this was my abuse (that I figured wouldn’t be covered by their warranty). They asked me to send them pictures to determine the specific knife I had and so I did. To my surprise, I got an email back that day saying they were sending me a new knife! I received it and couldn’t be more pleased. I don’t know if I’m more impressed with their knives or with their customer service but I would highly recommend Honey Badger knives!

Honey badger might just be the best every day working knife on the SA market. I've had my Honey Badger for 4 years now and I use and abuse it on my daily farm routines, and man this knife has surprised me with it's durability. I would recommend any one get themselves a Honey badger, whether it's for hunting fishing or just normal farm work. You won't regret buying the Badger.

I needed a knife that was competitively priced and easier for me to use one handed. I ended up buying the Honey Badger Wharncleaver Knife in the Large size. What a joy this knife is to use and to look at. It is a good solid knife that deploys easily but stays securely shut while I’m my pocket. It uses only ball bearings on the pivot, no spring assist, but the ball bearings are so smooth that it opens like a a spring assisted knife. It has a generous flipper which really helps me unlike other deployment types. This knife has good solid build, good fit and finish and a great price. It had replaced my Benchmade as my every day carry and I will most likely by another.

Got my first Honey Badger thru Blade HQ about a month ago which I ordered the medium leaf blade shape with black handles and WOW!!! I freaking love this knife so much I ordered 2 more. Another medium clip point blade w/ blue handles and a large tanto blade w/od green handles. I'm very impressed with this knife and just found out that I can customize one on their website!!! 🤯 OMGosh 🤯. If you're into flipper knives you should check out a Honey Badger, I promise you won't be disappointed.
