I paid for a sharpening choil to be cut into the blade, and then for a polished edge to be…read moresharpened/applied. The choil is set perfectly and is cut in exactly where I would have done it myself. It was definitely sharpened, and polished at a fairly high grit (my guess would be 1200 - 1500), but zero correction was done to the factory's angle, and about an inch of low spot is easily visible. I'll have to re-sharpen it myself to re-profile it and be content. At the end of the day, they did what I paid them to do, but I'm disappointed in their sharpening abilities.

Shining example of exotic EDC gatekeeping. RAISE YOUR CREATIVE FREEDOM PACKAGE "STYLE" STANDARDS!…read moreOr don't do it at all. Great you've got your QA process down but man I feel bad for the dudes even doin some of this stuff to these knives. I've read the other reviews too you downplay or literally troll the freedom packages. Such a great idea poorly executed. Thanks for making all my knives look like random NPC's like outa maybe $1,100 spent here I got one knife I kinda liked. So with the freedom package I'll say nothing shiny, bright, pink, but you can only say one thing? ???? Then get rammed with 400% of the one thing you ask for or not ask for like what a head trip. Why but you can't even make a knife look battle worn properly? It looks like Bullshxt not Battleworn. Then send me photos of something that doesn't match plus the lighting manipulation BS. Oh and that trippy edge in the center? You would think well shoot I can move that blade over and move this and that. First that's lame second the parts are different for different metals so yeah whatever here's some more knives from the edited version of blood moon. Like these guys are my besties and I need to learn the secret code of what to say to get Ma knife tight lookin' right? All of us CUSTOMERS we just a bunch of POS NPC trash. Like they PURPOSEFULLY will trash out your knife. Oh it'll work fine but there will always be that thing that bugs you about that knife. Why did they do this? Because it's a scam like all EDC. Take your money and leave you salty because Nananana you don't have access to what we got!!! Attached are some photos of what they did. Do they look cool to you? Pretty cool huh? Okay now I know you think they look cool right? But if you had access to that equipment and had some experience with EDC communities and how business' will cheese you so you come back for more cheese? Because we are ignorant NPC rats looking for cheese scraps. The real honesty is that although some of the process may be appreciative in some ways that doesn't take away from the fact that you are literally scamming us. You are saying it's a creative freedom. You use the input literally against the customer. Like really? But you sent me knives that look like DULL versions of what they should be. You trolled these knives with not being shiny and even though you made some hardware exceptions due to how dull they looked when you told me they looked bland so that means you even knew some stuff was off so you did me a favor by Does that make sense? Look how they trolled me when I said not shiny can see how that's cool but hey it's your money and you keep getting trolled you ain't gonna like it. All the knives I get back ALL always have some kind of troll to it. Then you get the condescending replies. I truly hope these dudes lose all their favorite knives and remember how many knives they did dirty. Also so they decided to do the "battleworn" on the one knife because the "blizzard" wash looks really plain. Damn did you see how PLAIN the TITANIUM entire knife is????? The only thing I said was "Definlty not shiney" okay. Now look at the titanium blade you went 400% into it being a dull turd knife which is cool once twice but this is like I dunno I lost count like 5th 6th knife's? Turded out? The hardware on the titanium is literally colorless. The ONLY time they added color was when they realized the extent of how DULL they looked. Then you emailed me with a one way option. In fact all three of these knives look like the exact opposite of creative freedom! They look like concentration camp knives. Damn I would rather have tried the battle worn on the damn titanium blade. Bet ya'll laughin up there too. Your "creative freedom" is a micro managed POWER trip.

If I could give 6 stars I would. We stopped by without a reservation. Registration is DIY...you…read morecall and a lovely young lady named Amy will answer and talk you through making payment and filling out forms. Amy was great to work with...with a great sense of humor and was very adroit at suggesting places to get ice; a.bite to eat etc. She was like the magical hotel concierge you luck out and get when all.of your travel plans are falling apart. We loved the campground. It had direct access to the Betsie River, showers and bathrooms were very well.maintaimed a clean...hot water was never a problem. There's Frisbee golf and horseshoes available..firewood was a generous amount for the money. There's 400 acres of state land to the north directly abutting the property. Mostly trailer and tent camping ( we had hammocks and were allowed to choose the spot we liked with the best trees for setup). They do have a canoe and kayak livery that currently only operates on weekends. I rarely gush over a business that doesn't bring me hot delicious food and cocktails...this is an exception to the rule. Hands down one of the best camping experiences. I have been disperse camping the last few years in order to avoid people and some of the issues that come with group camping ( loud drunk ppl...fascist property managers etc) this was about as good as family camping will ever get and the location is incredible. There's a very clean Mobil gas w a pizza place about 2 miles from the campground...and plenty of activities in all direction. Thank you so much for helping make our fishing trip camping headache free and amazing.

it's got everything you need their website was a little confusing( booking wouldn't work) but when…read morewe got there amy figured it out with us. fire wood is a little expensive that's it.

Honor Trading Post - Beginning of the lower Platte kayak trip

Honor Trading Post was our go-to for kayaking down the lower Platte River! Everyone was so nice &…read morehelpful, it really made the trip down the river a memorable experience. The livery had all the essentials for your trip; water shoes, sandwiches, cold drinks, ice, souvenirs, and so much more! They were stocked with whatever you needed. The team unloaded our kayaks & brought them down to the river with us, along with our paddles & life floats. For the record, they have plenty life jackets for whoever needs them. Any child under the age of 6 is required to wear one. The river flows gently & most of the trip is shallow enough to touch, I never felt in danger without a life vest. My favorite parts of the river were paddling through Loon Lake, the crystal clear water, and the end of the trip where the Platte meets Lake Michigan. The dunes were breathtaking & the kids absolutely loved it! We will definitely be back. Honor Trading Post was my livery of choice!

I booked a kayaking trip on the Platte River for my (almost) 10-year-old son and I. It was easy to…read morereserve everything on their website (we actually booked the morning of our trip.) The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable. My son had only been kayaking one other time, and he loved being in his own kayak. The river was slow and calm, perfect for a child to learn how to kayak. Parts of the river did get quite busy (we went on a beautiful Saturday) - there was one area where we navigated around a group of about 50-60 "innertubers." We packed up a couple of sandwiches and purchased some drinks and a cooler at the Trading Post before parking our car at the end of the river (at Lake Michigan.) I loved how at the end of the trip, we could hop right out of the river and into our car. One of the staff members drove us back to the drop-in spot (they had already prepared our kayaks for us to hop right in!) Note: there is an extra $25 fee involved to park your car in the lot at the end of the river. Would highly recommend booking with The Trading Post for anyone looking to check out the Platte River! We were staying in Glen Arbor, and it was only a 30-minute drive away.
