Operations Improve but the Supply Chain – and Inventory Visibility – is Worse

With peak season approaching, we want to update you on both operational and supply chain challenges that will affect your shopping experience for the foreseeable future.
After you place an order, you will receive another email notification, including tracking information, when the order ships.
As you know, we are now in the Holiday High Season in a year where nothing is business as usual. We are doing our best to control what we can – sharpening, quality inspections, and making sure your product will arrive undamaged.
We can’t control everything – we still need to hire more to ramp up for Holiday, but supplier’s manufacturing, the container ships, docks, rail, trucks and new employees are ….. unpredictable.
If you ordered an in-stock item, please reach out to us by email only if you have not received a shipment notification after 10 business days (orders@kultofathena.com). If your order is of a usually ships item, please only reach out after 14 days. If you added sharpening, please only reach out after 21 business days.
We truly appreciate your patience. Our staff is working overtime every week – and has been for 16+ weeks. We are making new hires… and those that show up and hardworking and learning quickly.

I always see that huge line of ships off Long Beach. I definitely understand, its a nightmare down there.
This is an amazingly detailed and helpful update. Thank you for taking the time to explain things, and I hope this holiday season treats you well!
Thanks for letting us know what’s going on. I know it’s been a nightmare lately with shipping delays, and with not having as much staff as you’re used to.
Seems like there’s more back ordered items in the catalog than in stock now! Rough situation.
