A Beginners Guide to Company Logo Knives

If your busy boss asks you to order some company logo knives to pass out at Christmas time, where do you start? Here is a helpful guide.

How to Order The Best Company Logo Knives

Decide on the quantity. Does each shop employee get one? What about the office employees? What about any subcontractors? What about the boss’s friends and relatives?
Determine the price of each knife.
Find a reputable online knife engraver.
Phone them to get some ideas. Knife merchants can be very helpful to solve your project objectives.
Furnish your best art file of your logo. Vector art (.ai or .eps) is the best art file for laser engraving onto knives.
Decide if you want to add a line of text somewhere on the knives. “Merry Christmas 2020”, “Thanks for 2020”, “Employee Appreciation Award 2020”, or some other appropriate tag line for your project.
Ask for a virtual proof, so you can show your boss, and get his approval. This is a step that he personally must be part of. Don’t try to guess what he would like.
Pay for the order, and ask for a ship date, so you can tell your boss when he can expect the knives.

7 Things About Personalized Pocket Knives You May Not Have Known

When you order gift pocket knives that have the recipient’s name or initials on each knife, these are called Personalized Pocket Knives. If all the knives have the same imprint, they would not be called “personalized”.

Here are some facts that you may not have known:

Personalized Pocket Knives

Personalization is not very expensive. It usually costs $5 per knife plus a setup charge of $25 for the whole order.
Instead of engraving the recipient’s first and last name, why not just the first name, and the years of service. “Jasonn–10 Years” instead of “Jasonn Smith”. The cost is the same either way.
The knife will last forever. Who would throw away a knife with their own name on it? So, your logo will also last forever.
Laser engraving is permanent. Electro etching is semi permanent.
You can submit your list of names in different ways: Excel spreadsheet, Word document, or just in an email.
If you misspell a name, it will be misspelled on the knife, and you paid for it.
The minimum order is the same as the minimum order for each particular knife.

Do Buck Knives Have What It Takes for Catfish Month?

Buck Knives for #CatfishMonth

To be honest, I know next to nothing about fishing. I fished a little when I was a kid, but I don’t know all the ins-and-outs of the sport. But for those who do, this is your lucky month- it’s Catfish Month.

There are many tasty fish you can catch out there, but catfish are the ones I caught with my dad when I was young. I remember trying to stick the worm on the hook, casting out, and crossing my fingers that we would catch one.

When we did, we would bring them home in a bucket and my dad would clean them with one of Buck Knives greatest knives- their Fillet Knife. Then my mom would dip them in batter and fry them up.

Here’s to hoping you catch some fish this month!

7 Answers to the Most FAQ About Engraved Buck Knives

When a potential customer asks about engraved Buck knives, they will definitely ask some of these questions:

Buck Knives Folding Hunter Lockback Knife 110

How soon can we have them? Production time is usually 10 business days after proof approval. If you need them for an event sooner than that, we might be able to meet your deadline. You might have to use UPS 2 day, or UPS next day air for the delivery method.
What kind of art file do you need? Vector art is the best art. Examples are .ai and .eps files. Please convert all text to curves. Your artist would know what that means. Other types of files may work, and we can convert them for a small fee.
Is laser engraving permanent? Laser burns your image into the substrate. The image cannot be scratched off or wear off. It is definitely permanent.
Can you imprint our color logo? Sorry, laser cannot do colors. However, if the substrate is anodized aluminum, the laser will burn down through the surface color and expose the metal color.
How much of a down payment do you need? Normally 100%, since this is a custom order. You may apply for an open account with us, and pay by check when the order is done. Acceptance of an open account may take a week or two, depending on the references that you give.
Do you take credit cards? Absolutely. We take all major credit cards.
Can we see a sample before you put our order into production? There are two kinds of samples. A virtual sample can be emailed to you for your approval. There is no charge for this. If you want to hold an engraved Buck knife in your hand, that has your imprint, that is called a speculation sample (or spec sample). They are not free. They normally cost the price of the knife, setup charge, shipping, and $50.

5 Steps to Finding the Perfect Engraved Leatherman Tools

Perfect Engraved Leatherman Tools

If your boss has given you the task to find the perfect engraved Leatherman tools for the shop’s safety program, where do you start? These 5 steps will help you:

Ask the employees if they would like the full size tool (about 4″ closed), or one of the pocket sized tools (about 2 1/2″ closed).
Are scissors necessary? Some of the tools have them. Some don’t.
Are knife blades necessary? If blades are not wanted, Leatherman has a tool for you.
Are pliers necessary? Some of the tools eliminate the pliers, to make more room for other tools.
Are carrying pouches needed? Some of the Leatherman tools come with leather pouches, and some with nylon pouches. And the mini tools don’t need any pouches at all.

These tips should help you get started on your project. If you have more questions, you can contact an online distributor of knives and tools.
