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.

About the Maker

Lofgren, Claes

Claes Lofgren was born in 1976 in Eksjö, Sweden He began making knives in the year 2000 and five months after making his first knife alone he decided to send his fifth knife to the big competition in Ludvika, where he managed to win the first prize in his chosen category! After that he has won several awards in the Nordic Championship and the Knife Expo in Los Angeles. Claes' knives are daring and his designs are a little adventurous and extreme, they are always close to a level being called pieces of art. He uses some of the finest materials available such as fossil bones, fossil Ivory and especially artifacts from the northern hemisphere.

Lofgren, Thomas

Thomas was born in1949 in Eksjo, Sweden. He started to make knives in the 80's. Roughly from the year 2000, Thomas's involvement became quite a lot more important than before, in part because of the interest for knife making developed by his son Claes. He recently wrote a book on ""Making Sheath for a Nordic Stile Knife"". The book is now translated and published in French and German. All Thomas's knives are unique as, he introduces many different elements to obtain each time a different piece. In the last years he turned even more towards high-quality materials, to produce more exclusive models. Together with Claes he is regularly participating in the Knife Expo of Pasadena, near Los Angeles, and to the SICAC in Paris, Messer Macher Messe in Soligen, Scandinavian Knifemakers Guild show in Helsinki, Knife week in Ludvika.
