eBay Review
Northwest Knives is my favorite knife distributor. This is the second knife I have purchased from them in the past month and I couldnt be happier with their customer service. My package was shipped out same business day and it arrived within a couple of daye. Furthermore, they responded to my inquiry immediately. When you combine their superior customer service with extremely competitive prices, I have no reason to look elsewhere. Thanks for the seamless transaction. William

Located in the Heart of Oregon Knife Country
We’re proud to call Salem, Oregon home. Nestled in the Willamette Valley, just south of Portland, we’re right in the middle of what many folks refer to as “Oregon Knife Country.” We’re surrounded by some of the biggest and best-known names in the knife world—Leatherman, Gerber, Kershaw, CRKT, Benchmade, and William Henry, just to name a few. Plus, many of the world’s most talented custom knife makers live and work right here in Oregon. It’s a great place for anyone passionate about knives.
From the Pages of Sheffield Exhibition Knives
These knives are part of a historic collection featured in the book co-authored by Owner Bill Claussen. They represent the craftsmanship and artistry that inspires our passion — not knives currently for sale.
Our Mission: Fair, Honest & Experienced Knife Buying and Selling
At NWKC, we assist both buyers and sellers—that means collectors looking for their next great knife, and folks who want to sell knives or entire collections.
To do that, we’re always looking to acquire new knives, and we do that in two ways:
We buy knives and
collections outright
If you want a quick and simple sale, we’ll make a fair cash offer based on current market values. Once we agree, you get paid fast—no waiting.
Prefer to get the best possible return on your knives?
Let us handle the sale for you. We’ll photograph, describe, and promote your knives through our monthly catalog, our eBay store, and direct collector network. Once they sell, you receive your share of the proceeds.
