March 20 will be the first day of spring. Winter is finally about over. What a relief!
Speaking of spring, let’s celebrate with one of these spring-assisted pocket knives engraved with your company logo. With an easy movement of the flipper, the knives open up and lock in place. There’s no need to worry about the blade folding on you when in use. When you’re done, just unlock it with the linerlock tab, and clip it to your pocket.

How do you find out what kind of appreciation your employees prefer? Ask them. Amazingly, I have found out that a $10 ham is cherished more than a $20 bonus check. This survey was done at a local shop a couple years ago. I was shocked at the response.
In any case, it pays to show your appreciation to your employees on a regular basis. It pays in productivity and longevity.
Buck has broken the mold of conformity, with the introduction of the Slim Select 110s series of pocket knives. Now buying engraved Buck Knives with your company logo can be a colorful experience. Many corporate logos have color in them. Now it is possible to reflect or compliment that color in the knife handle. These are made in the USA of domestic and foreign parts. They are available in Green, Tan, Grey, Orange, Red, and Black, and are a full 4 4/5″ long, closed. The blade is 3 3/4″.
We are proud of the Kershaw Leek Knife 1660. It was named 2002 Knife of the Year by Blade Magazine. Since then it has remained a top seller to companies that love Engraved Kershaw Knives. It’s a rather large pocket knife, a full 4″ closed. The feature that I like most, is the patented “Speedsafe Assisted-Opening System”. It also comes in a genuine Kershaw one-piece gift box.
What makes a great pocket knife? First of all, the brand makes a difference. Kershaw knives are top quality. Here is a list of the anatomy of “Great Engraved Kershaw Knives“.
Kershaw Chive 1600
Stainless steel. Kershaw uses the best grade of 420hc steel, so that the blade arrives sharp, and stays sharp for a long time. Then you can bring it back to that factory edge easily.
Packaging. The way a gift if presented is as important as the gift itself. All Kershaw knives are boxed in a genuine Kershaw box.
Design. They have a world renown design team.
Engraving. Your corporate logo will look good, permanently laser engraved on the handle or blade.
Price. Competition always controls the price of everything, even pocket knives.
Mechanism. Most of their knives come with the Speedsafe assisted-opening system. This makes the blade come out fast, with very little of your effort.
Locking system. The framelock design keeps your blade locked open, so it doesn’t buckle on you.
The best company logo knives must be useful, long-lasting, appreciated, and show your company logo. What secrets can I share with you?
Start with the best pocket knife. Choose the best 440 stainless steel for the blade.
Use material that your particular customers will like. Do they like wood, stainless steel, or bone scales? Other popular handles are made from anodized aluminum, stag, titanium, and synthetic materials.
Laser engrave on the blade and handle (if possible) for a long-lasting imprint. Sometimes the handle material is not conducive to engraving, or the design does not leave enough room for engraving.
So you like to keep a pocket knife on you at all times. It is handy to open packages, cut string and rope, and get someone out of a seat belt after an accident. When you fly on a commercial airline, what does TSA (Transportation Security Administration) have to say about your habit?
You may not have them in your carry-on bags. The final decision rests with the TSA officer on whether an item will be allowed past the checkpoint.
Since I sell pocket knives, one time I tested the system. When I travel by air, I like to take my fingernail clippers and toenail clippers. In the same shaving pouch I have a small inexpensive multi-knife. It has a small non-locking blade, scissors, and nail file. It is about 2″ closed. I normally put this shaving pouch in my checked bag. This time, I put it in my carry-on bag. Mainly because I was going on a short trip and didn’t need to use a checked bag. Surprise..I was able to go through the checkpoint. It worked that time, but who knows if TSA would allow this knife to pass every time.
What happens if you remember that you have an expensive knife in your pocket, and you are already in the TSA line? It’s too late to put it in your checked bag.
Get out of line and hide it somewhere in the airport, like a flower pot, above a ceiling tile, behind some furniture, or any other place you can think of.
Go outside and bury it in the ground.
On your return trip, your knife might be gone, but it might still be there. It’s better odds than forfeiting it to the TSA agent.
Our veterans gave us their best, and sometimes their lives, so we could enjoy our personal freedoms in this great country. How can we ever show them enough gratitude?
Take them to lunch or dinner on Veterans Day, or this weekend.
On November 10, 1775, the Continental Congress established the Continental Marines, in preparation for the American Revolution. The recruitment office was in the Tun Tavern on Water Street in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. After the war, the Continental Marines was abolished, only to be replaced in 1798 by the United States Marine Corps (USMC). It was placed under the Secretary of the Navy at that time.
Engraved Buck Knives proudly salutes the United States Marine Corps and thanks all the marines for their valuable service. We encourage you to also thank a Marine, take them to lunch, or give them engraved Buck knives in appreciation.
