  • Buy your product from a reputable source like hooknives.com or any authorised dealers we list.
  • Trust your instincts and compare prices. If an offer looks too good to be true, then it probably is. Our products are rarely discounted unless for British military personnel or first responders, so do not rush and be fooled into believing you are getting a good deal.
  • Be safe! Fake goods are often bad quality and, in many cases, unsafe for use.
  • Check for the details, misspelt or shabby printed words and logos are an easy giveaway sign, counterfeits may look similar, but the quality will never hold up to the original.
