Bringing It All Back to the USA: The Knife Junkie Podcast (Episode 561)

The Knife Junkie Podcast

Tim Kell of T.Kell Knives joins Bob "The Knife Junkie" DeMarco on Episode 561 of The Knife Junkie Podcast (https://theknifejunkie.com/561) to talk about what it will take to bring knife manufacturing back to the United States.

Tim served in the USMC and is a life-long American Patriot with a passion for practical, durable and functional edged tools. As a function-first kind of guy, he only buys tools that are best in their class for durability and multiple uses and his knife designs are based on the same uncompromising philosophy of use.

Tim began making knives by hand, one at a time, six years ago and gradually grew his business by getting better equipment and working with other American manufacturers. He explains that it's important to keep knife manufacturing in the USA for several reasons, including:

• National security
• Creating American jobs
• Maintaining high-quality standards
• Having control over the materials used

Tim talks about how his company focuses on making high-quality knives rather than trying to make them as cheaply as possible. He also discusses some of the challenges of making everything in America, like finding the right materials and working with other U.S. manufacturers.

He emphasizes that his company's success comes from paying attention to details, being willing to improve their designs, and working with other knife designers to create new products.

Tim runs his business with strong values and a commitment to quality, even if that means their knives cost more to make than those made in other countries.
