How American Industry Is Helping Keep Custom Knife Prices Competitive

At Alchemy Outdoors, we believe a knife should do more than cut—it should carry meaning. It should be a story in steel, a testament to craftsmanship, and a tool that’s ready for whatever the backcountry throws your way.

While the world of materials and manufacturing is always evolving, we’re feeling optimistic. Thanks to a growing resurgence in American industry, we’re seeing more opportunities to offer stable, competitive pricing—without sacrificing the quality or character that define our blades.

A Shift Toward Homegrown Quality

As more makers and suppliers bring operations back to U.S. soil, it’s creating a ripple effect of strength and sustainability throughout the custom knife world. From domestically-produced steel to American-sourced handle materials and hardware, the supply chain is tightening in the best way: closer, more reliable, and more aligned with our values.

This trend isn’t just good for the economy—it’s good for you, the end user. With greater access to high-quality, locally made components, we’re able to:

• Ensure better material availability

• Avoid unpredictable price hikes

• Maintain a high level of craftsmanship without cutting corners

Built in the USA, Built to Last

Our knives are created with intention, made right here in the USA...Boise, Idaho to be exact. Every blade, every handle, every grind is designed for performance in the wild—and made to hold up for a lifetime of adventures.

With American manufacturing gaining momentum again, we’re seeing a renewed pride in producing things the right way. For us, that means:

• Prioritizing USA-made steel and hardware suppliers from New Jersey to the Pacific Norhtwest

• Working with local partners to support our community and maintain control over quality

• Keeping our prices stable, even as demand grows

Why It Matters

A custom knife is an investment. With a stronger American supply chain and renewed focus on domestic production, we’re proud to offer you premium blades that are both accessible and uncompromising.
