⚖️ Seller Warranty & Marketplace Dispute Conciliation

Contact support under the seller's warranty and marketplace return policy if, after following usage and maintenance instructions, the blade exhibits manufacturing defects such as cracks, bending not caused by misuse, or if the handle attachment fails for no apparent reason. These are manufacturing defects that prevent normal use of the product and cannot be resolved by home procedures.
