This guys are great! Knife came with finger wrapping 😁and chewing gum👍make me smile🙂Good comunication and fast shipping.Looking forward to buy another item!
You want some ano and blasting done? They got you covered. Need to sell a knife? Easy. Good business yeah. They do a really good job.
Way of Knife is one of the best knife shops around; their creative knife modding services are second to none!
The crew at Way of Knife/EDC Gearhouse is amazing. They have done some beautiful projects for me including the current gem of my collection the Seigha Wave Boker F3 (pictured).They carry the mot high quality products, use the best techniques, and demonstrate genuine artistry with their approach to customization. 10/10 quality and customer care!Highly recommend following them on the socials to see their amazing work, they are a great follow!
If you are in the Traverse City area and have a love for pocket knifes and EDC gear, THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU! They do great custom work and will make sure everything is done perfectly… Absolutely love this place! Go show them some love!
Rude people they try to rip you off when trying to sell your knives to them I wouldn’t recommend selling your knives to these people and very high on prices again I want be doing any business with these people and wouldn’t recommend my worst enemy. SMH
Great selection. Knowledgeable staff. Everything from high end customs to budget beaters. Great sharpening services as well, has sharpened almost all my knives sharp enough to shave with. If you want something you dont see in the store talk to Marcus and he can probably get it.
Smaller shop, great atmosphere. Let me handle various knives although I was only window-shopping. Conversational staff that really puts the heart into the brick and mortar experience. Sharpened my EDC for me and it is like a razor now. Hope to do future business with them.
Awesome service! Great range of products, and really high quality products as well. Great local knife store! Definitely will be going back!
Sent in my Medford Praetorian for a McNasty treatment and anodizing hardware service. Knife was back in my hands within a week after I shipped it. Excellent communication and polite quick service; very happy with the results!
I was looking for a particular knife for a gift and Way of Knife was out-of-stock on their website. I called and learned that Marcus could order it for me and have it drop-shipped directly to me. It arrived the next day, even before I got the invoice.Great service, even long distance.
Incredible shop, they have something for any taste or price range. Super knowledgeable on the products they sell, and the services they offer. I would recommend anyone into knives or EDC gear to stop in and check it out.
I Had The Best Customer Service Experience & Smoothest Transaction Yet!!! I Highly Recommend Doing Business With These Guys 👍, Marcus Was Absolutely A Pleasure To Deal With, Fast Shipping, Knife Came As Described & In Perfect Working Order! 《Its The Only...Way Of Knife》👊👊
Marcus carries a great variety of knives both factory and custom. If it is a knife for hunting or the kitchen, Way of Knife is your one stop shop! Sharpening service is provided as well!
I’ve had my knives sharpened a few times before, and it’s nice... but when these folks sharpened my knives they took it to the next level! I’d highly recommend it.
I took my 8 chef knife and my 4 asian pairing knife in to way of the knife exactly one week ago. After using my knives at work for a weeks worth of shifts I can say I am happy with the level of attention they were given. Seeing the knife report was helpful for me because I could see the chips and knicks in the blade of my chef knife, and then the smooth finish after the stropping was done. Maybe itll be good for you to see too? Anyway, the last 2 to the heel on my chef knife are perfectly straight and then the blade curves to the tip. I am happy to say that before and after the same two inches are just as flat. This tells me that whatever he uses to grind the blade he keeps the current geometry and the new edge is very minimal, indicating he doesnt take a lot of material off. Overall Im really happy with my knives and the shop in general.
Great knife store with everything from production to customs. Marcus, the owner is very knowledgeable and helpful...He can also put a mirror edge on your blade. Highly recommended...
Great service, have trouble protecting my wallet from this business (in a good way) due to the selection. If you are looking for a quality knife shop, look no further. Feed the Knife Addiction ;)
Had four knives sharpened so far and everything went perfect. Super sharp edge. Also has a nice selection of knives.
Great shop and a great owner. Great to see a knife shop open up. Good selection of production, custom and local knives.
Bought two knives. Couldn’t be happier with purchases. Definitely recommended. Will be going there for any future purchases.
Damn good service purchased several knives. If they carried more spyderco I’d give it a 5!
Great Store, great variety, and knowledgeable staff. Glad to finally have a quality blade store in the TC Area.
They carry a lot of high quality products and have top shelf customer service. Wouldnt buy from anywhere else. Check them out.
Cool store. Great help.
Quick response. Knowledgeable staff. Easy to do business with. Fast shipping on orders.
High end custom work, great prices, communication and turn around time... great selection as well
Found a locally forged knife for my husband! Love supporting local makers!
Great selection and awesome staff. Sharpening job done well!
Carries high end, quality knives. Knows his stuff.
Great place, awesome customer service, excellent experience!
Holy smokes, do these guys know their stuff!

2022-08-04Lost my work knife and had to replace it, was pleasantly surprised to come across this store online, I always spend my money in Michigan when possible and will definitely buy from again. Fast shipping and got some cool stickers as well. The way of knife exclusive SBR looks even better in person. 5 stars!

2022-07-21Super nice and patient guys. We’re happy to show me all the knives I wanted to see. Decided on the storm trooper white Microtech Exocet! Then they FaceTimed with my buddy to answer all his questions about mods! Can’t wait to go back!

2022-06-23Great guys to deal with!They have provided fast turnaround, done right, on three different items Ive sent in for mods.Shown in the pics is an excellent working finish they put on the blade of my K390 FrankenPM2.Thanks Ben and Marcus!

2022-06-26Pretty good overall. Early on there was some mistakes between Marcus and Ben, and their communication with each other. Id pay 1 person, and the other 1 doing the work, wouldnt know. Had to send a few knives back to get what I paid for done..now that its just WoK, its much better. Their prices are great, compared to alot of the other mod places/people.

2022-06-22The best knife modification service in the game right now, especially when it comes to anodization. I’m yet to see such high quality modding at these price points. I highly recommend their advanced creative freedom (ACF) package; they will turn any knife into a work of art.

2022-06-24I got a couple of their rat 2 m390 reblades. As far as I know they are good blades. Havent used so not sharpened. Id assume the heat treatment is good. Havent heard anything bad about them

2022-06-22Have not been able to order the product i wanted (M390 reblade for RAT-2), but i think it is a great service to offer these kind of upgrades allowing customers to affordably upgrade folding knives with well-treated steels.

2021-04-17I like knives. They sell knives. It works out well. Seriously though, this is now my go to place when I feel the need to grow my collection. Great personalized customer service and the modification offerings are amazing. Treat yourself to a creative freedom package on a titanium frame lock knife, you won’t be disappointed!

2022-06-22If you are the type of person that uses the backs of ceramic plates to sharpen your knives, this is your haven. They even have special treatments for the blades, and much like cowboy boots, hats, certain artisan-quality gloves, and really any /good/ products; the prices will reflect this.Good aint cheap and cheap aint good.All the knives come sharp enough to pass a laguiole test and I love the selection. The only issue Ive come across is my own impatience lol. Sometimes shipping gets delayed but thats not the fault of the company, thats just life haha.
