Hogue offers a limited lifetime warranty to the original owner against defects in materials or workmanship. It does not cover normal wear or damage caused by misuse or neglect. Hogue is a family-run American company and its cutlery division has operated since 2010.
Defects in materials or workmanship, to the original owner, for the life of the product. That is the standard structure, and Hogue's wording is straightforward about the two exclusions: normal wear, and damage from misuse or neglect.
Neglect being named explicitly is worth reading. A knife allowed to rust is generally a neglect case rather than a defect case.

Contact Hogue directly rather than a retailer. Warranty claims across almost every brand we carry go to the manufacturer.
Warranty terms are set by the manufacturer and can change. The maker's own warranty page, linked below, is the authority. We repeat what it says; we do not extend it, and a retailer cannot promise coverage a manufacturer has not offered.
