I contacted the store asking whether they could advise me for the correct camon net to be used as a shade for my vehicle and whether the ropes on the net were strong enough to be strung from the four corners. The guy sarcastically said, " Yes, the net I had chosen was the correct one. " On receiving the item, I found that the net was incorrect and was advised I was lumbered with the cost for return because I bought the item online . To say correspondence is poor is an understatement; they have emailed me with no formalities in the mail that I need to supply my bank details to get the refund. Surely they could use the details I used to buy it. Terrible service, terrible store
Very disappointed with my purchase, I bought a Buck knife but it was a copy made in China!
True buck knifes are made in America.
Still haven't received my refund.
The Opinel knife is a design classic and the carbon steel bladed version is my favourite as it can be easily sharpened. The simple locking ring makes sure that unlike penknives, the blade cannot fold onto your fingers. The 7VRN is an ideal size for everyday use as a picnic knife, or a camping knife.
