Sirs, Today I received my new  Patriot SASS Badge in the mail. I would

\n

like to let you know that this is one of the finest made products that

\n

I have purchased in a very long time. I am glad to see that \"Made In

\n

America\" is still available. I did not know that this quality of

\n

workmanship even existed anymore. I hope that there will be thousands

\n

more of your badges purchased, someone needs to spread the word that

\n

American quality products such as yours are still available. Keep up the good work.

I received my badge today.  When I received the shipment and opened the package, I was first struck by the weight of the item and then I saw and felt the quality of the metal itself.  Next, I saw immediately the attention to detail.  The badge is just as I had wanted and better.  Your workmanship is stellar and I am very much impressed.  I will be proud to display this badge as I need in my work. 

\n

Thank you for renewing my faith in workmanship.  It was refreshing indeed.  I have already expressed to my colleagues my delight in finding a quality badge and law enforcement supply company; quality that I expected to receive and did receive.  It is unfortunate that this does not occur as often as it should anymore.  The friends I spoke with are colleagues who also need badges and items required for operation in our safety and security industry.  I am hoping they have already started to make their purchases from your store.

I just want to let you know that the customs both arrived last night. The anticipation was killing me, but when I finally opened the box and got a look at them, it took my breath away. This was six years in the making for me, and it's finally been realized, so thank you. The quality is legitimately superb. 

\n

 

\n

Seriously. The quality of THIS shield even surpasses all of the PREVIOUS Smith & Warren shields that I have purchased, and that says a very lot. 

\n

 

\n

Again, thank you both, very much. I'll definitely be ordering a few more of these bad boys.

I just wanted to take a minute and say Thank you for all your assistance in helping me pick out, designing and order my badge.  
Cris Leonard over at Badge and Wallet was exceptional to work with as well he contacted me very quickly
 and made the ordering process very easy.  I thought going in to this process of ordering and designing a 
badge would be long and painful but with all your help you made this process very easy and enjoyable.  
I look forward to working with you and Smith and Warren again in the near future.  
And again Thank you for all your help!!

Lee, Recently one of our customer's fireman passed away and they wanted a badge for the showing. This badge had to be here for the showing within 2 days. I knew of only one company that would do this and contacted Smith and Warren. I talked to Sal and he responded as I knew he would.  Both he and Erin went out of their way to make sure the customer received the badge. We even had to make a change in the badge during production but Sal and Erin came through.  Please thank them for their great service and we look forward to doing more business with Smith and Warren in the future.
