New Private Tour of The World's Largest Knife Store!

You know when you’re super excited to visit somewhere and you get that excited butterfly feeling in your stomach? Well, when that happens to me, it makes me poop. I would definitely poop in this store’s restroom.

I had the pleasure of visiting the store a couple of years ago when I was out camping in Great Smoky Mountains. It was amazing, I was there for hours trying out knives that I can only see in pictures online. I left with a ridiculous amount of knives and a big grin on my face.

[@buelowexcavating]

It cost me about $1,000 to get out of the store with a big smile on my face! I am going again!

[@jimbeaux89]

We came here last year when we were staying in the area and I brought my wife and two children there and was expecting them to want to leave after about an hour, but we ended up staying for three hours because of all of the amazing historical artifacts they have. This is probably the coolest store I have ever been to in my life! Staff is top notch! We’ll be staying in the area next month and we’re DEFINITELY coming back!

[@djchris30]

Thank God I live in Canada. If that store was anywhere near me, l'd be broke 🤦‍♂️

[@danielgattuzo3065]

Took my son here for his tenth birthday from South Jersey. What was great is that he was able to flick over 100 knives till he settled on a Artisan. You can’t do that anywhere else in the country. I bought a matching larger version and then we got them engraved to commemorate the trip. This is such a cool store and the surrounding area is unbelievably beautiful with tons of stuff to do. Can definitely recommend creating a trip to TN around this store, so worth it!

Man I stopped by and finally checked out your store when I was in the area a month or so ago. My wife was waiting in the car while my daughter and I checked out the place. I thought I won’t be long. Yeah she was unhappy because I was in there about a hour and got lost about 3 times lol. I didn’t realize how much stuff you had like the historical stuff for sale downstairs. I ended up leaving with nothing because they just didn’t have any of the cooler models of spyderco and Benchmade in stock but I’ll be back and maybe I’ll find something next time.Only thing i didn’t see is any Ontario knives and one other brand I can’t think of right now while i was there.

I visited this store when I went on vacation one year... it was amazing and had everything anyone could think of if you wanted a knife... I spent hours in the store and although I did buy way more stuff than I planned on getting, I was very happy with what I was able to find 👍👍... all the employees were awesome!!... one knife I bought was a Case Canoe with real stag , and I looked through over 50+ of them to find the exact one I liked... Some asshole stole that knife from me one week after I got home... My vehicle was broken into and I had it in the console still in the box never used... I am still so pissed off about that, and mostly because I know I’ll probably never be able to visit the store again in my life, and plus the amount of time and money I invested in such a great product only to have some asshole steal it from me!!!...
