Layaway Information

Layaway Policies

We offer a layaway plan on select products so you may pay for your order over a period of 60 days. Products that are eligible for layaway will show "Layaway Available: Yes" on the product page.

Here's how it works:

The total amount of the order excluding shipping, tax, or fees is divided into three (3) equal payments. The first payment is due with the order, the second payment is due 30 days later, and the final payment is due 60 days after the order.

There is a $15 non-refundable fee for layaway orders. This fee is added to the first payment along with the shipping and any tax. The first payment is made when the order is placed.

Example: Your order total is $300 plus $12.75 shipping and handling. If you select the layaway option, your payments would be:

  • $127.75 (1/3 of purchase = $100 + $15 layaway fee + $12.75 shipping)
  • $100.00 (1/3 of purchase = $100)
  • $100.00 (1/3 of purchase = $100)

If your initial payment is made by credit card, we will automatically process the 2nd and 3rd payments at the appropriate time using the same credit card information. You will be reminded via email that a payment will be charged. If you need to change this for any reason, please contact us.

For payments made other than credit card, payment must be received within seven (7) days of the due date or the order is subject to cancellation. You will receive a reminder via email that a payment is due.

If you wish to complete payment early and have your order shipped, you may contact us at any time during the 60 day period. There is no penalty for prepayment.

Additional products may be added to a layaway order without penalty. A new payment schedule will be calculated based on when additional products are added.

If you wish to complete payment early and have your order shipped, you may contact us at any time during the 60 day period. There is no penalty for early payment.

Cancellations of layaway orders are subject to a restocking/processing fee of 10% of the order total (not including tax and shipping costs). This restocking fee is in addition to the $15 non-refundable layaway fee.

Overview

This Sam Eddleman AP Tanto Front Flipper is one of the most impressive kwaiken-style folding knives we've ever seen. It has the looks of a full-size design from the Far East but comes in at 7.25" overall and 4.25" closed for a knife you can easily conceal. The action is buttery smooth utilizing a pivot bearing system and the lockup is nice and tight. The heart of the knife is a 3.15" Bohler M390 stainless steel blade with hollow ground bevels for sharpness and a flat-ground tip for strength. It has a tactical black PVD finish and a conventional V-ground edge. The beautiful design is true to its Japanese heritage with a matching black PVD titanium handle inlaid with red G10 diamonds in a katana wrap pattern. We absolutely love this design and are sure you will too; it's a backup tactical folder that exudes style and personality. First production run individually numbered and limited to 300 pieces.
