Will do so. Maybe I got it wrong, you can check it (and correct me) on this link about LionSteel's warranty : https://www.lionsteel.it/n/k/en/eur/warranty/mm/default (3rd line from the bottom to the top).
I can't tell by the wording in the warranty, which states:
"All costs associated with shipment to returned product are the responsibility of the customer."
But I am guessing this is in reference to getting the blade back in their hands. Also, I'm encouraged by RamZar's statement below:
I've sent knives back to LionSteel and the shipping from U.S. to Italy was expensive but I was not charged return shipping from Italy and LionSteel basically sent me new knives.
^This seems logical. The issue that may come up is the attempted repair, as per return policy #8:
"Any manumission of the knife will invalidate the warranty, and the repair work will be charged to the customer. Examples of manumission are destructive tests, structural modification, improper sharpening."
However they do state at the end of the return policies:
"This rules are in place because of the many fraud attempts made by dishonest users."
Which I would say is in no way the case here, but this particular claim may still be at their discretion due to the attempt to fix it. Again, best of luck sir.
