Knife Wholesalers

Knife Restrictions

Understanding the local and state laws related to knives where you live and selling them is always important. Use our knife restriction guide to get started. Then, if you live in a jurisdiction where knife sales are restricted, take a deeper dive.

Fixed Blade, Butterfly, Folding, Throwing & Disguised: Wholesale Knife Distributor

Knives are among our most popular items to sell at flea markets, gun shows, and other local market events.

You can double or triple your money with our low wholesale knife supply prices. Our inventory would not be complete without a good selection of knives, and as a personal safety and self-defense dealer, neither is yours.

A wide selection of knives can reach a broad audience, including hunters, survivalists, campers, anglers, and a full range of blue-collar workers. They appeal to anyone who depends on the utility of a good knife multiple times during the workday.

Folding and Fixed Blade Knives

Safety Technology proudly offers survival and disguised knives as a wholesale distributor to a targeted audience. But we realize the demand for knives is much more significant and broader. So, to ensure there’s something for every one of your customers, we also carry a range of folding and fixed-blade knives.

Fixed-blade knives are among the most popular knives sold at retail. They come in all shapes and sizes and include sheathes for carrying and storage.

A good fixed-blade knife is an indispensable tool. It’s a top need for anyone who spends significant amounts of time in the great outdoors. Campers love them, as do hunters and anglers.

Folding knives are also one of our better-selling items. And why not? It used to be that every kid growing up in America got a folding knife as a birthday or Christmas gift.

Kids were taught how to carve and whittle with those knives. Getting that first folding knife was a rite of passage for many of us.

That may not be the case in today’s technologically driven society, but folding knives are still handy tools. A folding knife is perfect for opening a box that has just arrived from Amazon or eBay. It is also ideal for cutting a length of rope, opening the mail, or doing just about anything that requires a thin blade.

Knife Wholesale Company: We Offer Plenty of Knives to Choose From

Safety Technology takes great pride in the diversity of our inventory as a knife supplier. Where knives are concerned, we have plenty of choices for you.

We offer as many choices as possible. Why? Because we know that your customers may want one thing while another dealer’s customers want something completely different.

The beauty of retail is giving your customers exactly what they want. Do you cater to a target audience made up mostly of outdoor enthusiasts? You may sell more fixed-blade knives than folding knives.

That’s great. One of our other dealers might cater to suburban families who are more likely to buy folding knives. That’s great, too, as long as you’re selling to satisfied customers.

We keep our inventory as complete as possible to make it as simple as possible for you to stock the inventory you want. Safety Technology dealers can access all our products, a detailed pricelist, and a full-color catalog. We also make product sourcing easy for you.

You can download the catalog as soon as you become an approved dealer. Then, you can immediately go through it to build your inventory of self-defense and personal safety items for your in-person or online store.

Great Knives at Wholesale Prices

One of the things you should immediately notice as you go through the Safety Technology pricelist is our low wholesale prices. Each product on our list shows you the following:

• The wholesale price for orders of fewer than 1,000 pieces
• A bulk wholesale price for orders of 1,000 or more
• A suggested retail price. That suggested retail price is vital to your success as a retailer.

Once you buy a selection of wholesale knives, you add a markup that covers your expenses and generates a profit.

There are two ways to look at this. You can research the average retail price for that product and then charge the maximum price that allows you to make sales. This business model concentrates on maximizing per-piece profits.

The other way to do things is to set your prices slightly lower than average. The goal is to sell more pieces, thus making a profit on volume rather than per-piece pricing.

Regardless of your chosen model, our wholesale prices can accommodate it. Our wholesale knife prices are low enough to give you plenty of room to accommodate your pricing strategy.

Knife Dropshipping Makes it Even Easier for You.

Perhaps you are just getting started with your own retail business, and you’re working from home.

You may not want to store a stock of knives out of fear that burglars might target your house. Or maybe you do not want knives in the house with your kids.

That’s not a problem. We drop ship every knife in our inventory.

What is dropshipping? It is a partnership of sorts between you and us. As your drop shipper and wholesaler, we are responsible for stocking the knives you are selling and shipping them to your customers as retail purchases are made. Your responsibility is to go out and find a way to sell the knives.

We handle all the stock and shipping. This means you do not have to have any physical inventory, knives or otherwise, stored in your house or office. Just order from us using your Safety Technology dealer account whenever you get an order from a customer.

We ship the order directly to your customer using your shipping information. You pay us the item’s wholesale price plus our shipping and packaging costs. Knife dropshipping: it’s easy and effective.

Understand that our dropshipping program is offered entirely free of charge. We do not mark up shipping or packaging—you pay what we pay. Free dropshipping is hard to find, but maybe that’s one of the reasons Safety Technology is the largest dropshipper in our industry.

We do not believe in charging extra for a service that does not incur any additional expense. We would instead offer free knife dropshipping so you have more opportunities to make money.

Finding the Audience for Knives

Dropshipping is but one method of selling our knives. You can also start building your inventory to be sold online or in person. The key is finding your audience.

Do you live in an area where flea markets are popular? If so, they offer an audience just waiting to be tapped. Trust us when we say flea markets are one of the best opportunities to sell knives. We have been in this business for over 30 years; we know a good sales location when we see one.

Maybe flea markets are not a big deal where you live. That is not a problem. Who do you want to target most with fixed blades and folding knives? Start thinking about your customer base and how to connect with them.

Let’s say it is those outdoor enthusiasts we previously mentioned. Consider renting vendor space at outdoor trade shows. RV and boat shows are other excellent opportunities. Selling something compact and affordable can be a welcome change from the big-ticket items featured at these shows.

Maybe suburban families are your cup of tea more. That’s great. You can work as a vendor at all the local community events in your area. There are many opportunities between fairs, shows, local festivals, and other gatherings.

Think small business shows, music festivals, art shows, neighborhood garage sales, and any other event that seeks retail vendors. They are all over the place if you know where to look.

Start Your Knife Shop With Easy Knife Wholesaling

Yet another way to tap into your target audience is to open a brick-and-mortar shop in a location with a fair amount of retail traffic. This is probably the most expensive way of doing business in the modern era, but it is still a very successful business model for many retailers.

A small shop in a local strip mall is one possibility. If you live in a small town, you might be able to get pretty cheap retail space in a downtown storefront. There is also the mall kiosk.

The takeaway is that there is no one way to sell our knives, especially with inexpensive knife wholesaling. There are enough choices for you to find something that works for you. You might even decide to combine multiple sales channels to maximize exposure.
