We give a lifetime guarantee to all our knives - the lifetime of the maker, that is. If you damage your I.R.B.I. knife, we will repair or replace it free of charge - as long as Virgil or Hunter is alive and making knives.  However, we cannot guarantee certain handle materials, such as ivory and coral.

The knife you see above was not designed for cutting corners.  It was intentionally bent over cold in a vice to show our that our blades are resistant to breakage.  We only harden the cutting edge, dramatically increasing the overall strength and durability of the blade.

This knife, made by Irvin, was found in the woods after missing for several years. Virgil removed the blade, attached it to a new handle and returned it to usable condition. The only cost to the owner was the price of a new sheath.
