DIY with DAKOYU™ – Customize, Modify, Repair

At DAKOYU™, we believe your multitool should be as unique as you are. That’s why we fully support DIY modifications, customizations, and repairs—without penalizing you with voided warranties.  

Unlike other brands that restrict user tinkering, we encourage you to make your DAKOYU™ multitool truly yours. Engrave it, anodize it, swap parts—your warranty stays intact as long as your modifications don’t harm the core functionality.

 

How We Support Your DIY Journey - Warranty That Respects Your Creativity

Modifications DO NOT void your warranty—unless they directly cause damage.

  • ✅ Allowed (Warranty stays valid): Laser engraving, handle customization, screw adjustments, non-destructive part swaps, etc.
  • Example: If you engrave your handles but the pliers fail due to a manufacturing defect, we’ll still cover the pliers.

 

  • ❌ Not covered (Warranty void only on affected parts): Pliers broken due to improper disassembly, blade damage from misuse, irreversible modifications, removal of protective paint layer, etc.
  • Example: If extensive rust or corrosion develops on laser engraved parts due to bare metal exposure, it may void the warranty coverage on the effected parts.

 

Easy Access to Spare Parts

  • We stock replacement parts and other hard to find fasteners, so you can repair or modify your tool without hassle.
  • Need a new blade, plier head, or handle scale? Check our [Spare Parts Store] (coming soon).  

No Anti-Repair Design

  • Our tools are designed for longevity and serviceability.

Guides & Community Knowledge Sharing

FAQs on DIY & Warranty

Q: Does painting my multitool void the warranty?
A: No, cosmetic changes like paint or dye won’t void your warranty—unless paint clogs moving parts.  

Q: Can I replace a bent screwdriver bit myself?
A: Yes! We’ll even sell you the spare bit. Self-repairs don’t affect warranty coverage.  

Q: What if I break a part while modifying my tool?
A: If accidental damage occurs during DIY (e.g., stripped screws), warranty won’t cover the broken part, but the rest of the tool remains protected.
