Buying and using knives and axes
Homecamp knives and axes are intended for outdoor, camping and utility purposes. They must be purchased, handled and used responsibly.
Age requirement
As a Homecamp sales policy, you must be 18 or older to purchase a knife or axe. We may request appropriate age verification before supplying your order.
Product and delivery restrictions
Restrictions may apply to particular products or destinations. We may decline supply where a legal requirement cannot be met. Any payment for goods we cannot lawfully supply will be refunded.
Purchasing a product does not automatically give you permission to carry or use it in every location. Check the requirements that apply where you intend to transport, carry or use it.
Safe use and storage
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and use each tool only for its intended purpose.
- Keep hands and other people clear of the cutting area.
- Use an appropriate, stable work area.
- Store tools securely, out of children’s reach.
- Protect cutting edges with a suitable sheath or cover when storing or transporting them.
- Do not use these products as weapons or for unlawful activities.
Maintenance and care
Inspect your tool before use, including the blade, handle and any fixings. Stop using it if parts are damaged, loose or otherwise unsafe.
Follow the product’s care instructions for cleaning, drying, sharpening and storage. Contact us if you need advice or believe there is a defect.
Product issues and consumer rights
Email [email protected] with your order number or other proof of purchase, a description of the issue and relevant photographs.
Damage caused by misuse, improper handling or inadequate maintenance is assessed according to its cause. This does not automatically exclude an unrelated manufacturing defect or remove your consumer rights.
Nothing in this article excludes or restricts your rights under Australian Consumer Law, or Homecamp’s liability where it cannot lawfully be excluded.
