Why Our Payment System Stands Apart
Just as our OTF knives feature premium mechanisms, our payment processing offers:

- Discreet billing – Statements show “EKS Cutlery” for privacy

Common Payment Questions
Why was my order declined?
Our system prioritizes security, which may trigger declines for:
- Billing/shipping address mismatches (critical for automatic knives)
- International high-value transactions (common with collector pieces)
- Suspected fraud patterns (we protect your account aggressively)
PRO TIP:
For large purchases of Italian artisanal knives or tactical collections, consider splitting orders or contacting your bank in advance to authorize international transactions.
Do you offer payment plans?
Currently, we process full payments only to ensure rapid shipping of our battle-ready inventory. For high-value collector’s items ($1,000+), email [email protected] about special arrangements.
Are there additional fees?
We charge no hidden fees. International customers should note:
- 0% currency conversion markup
- Possible bank foreign transaction fees (varies by institution)
- Customs duties remain the buyer’s responsibility
Security You Can Trust
Just as our fixed blade knives feature full-tang construction for reliability, our payment system is built with multiple layers of protection:
- PCI-DSS Level 1 compliance (highest industry standard)
- 3D Secure authentication for all card payments
- Regular security audits by independent firms
- No payment data stored on our servers
