Your deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable. ALL ORDER ACKNOWLEDGMENTS WILL COME VIA EMAIL. Please allow 2 to 3 business days for order processing.
Please note, due to extended delivery times, Randall does limit the number of extra features that may be added to a knife. The limit is five chargeable features.
