Re: China and tariffs

The tariff is another line in the COGS calculation. It’s 25% of the steel cost (my understanding at least). Only that line item (as mentioned by others already) within the COGS increases. It’s not a 25% increase on entire cost of knife to distributors or for the MSRP (at least it shouldn’t). Based o...

Re: Do most of us need larger knives?

I’ve carried a pocket knife since around 5th grade. That was a different time 40 years ago. I’ve never carried anything larger than 3” and have gotten by just fine.
