POST FALLS, ID— Buck Knives, a leading American knife and tool manufacturer known for its uncompromising craftsmanship and quality, recently celebrated the grand re-opening of its Factory Store at the company’s manufacturing facility and headquarters in Post Falls, Idaho. The re-opening event at the 1,600 square-foot-plus store highlighted the enduring tradition of craftsmanship and excellence that defines Buck Knives.
“The grand re-opening of the Buck Factory Store reinforces the company’s commitment to American manufacturing excellence, and is a tribute to the more than 300 employees who handcraft some of the world’s most famous and respected knives,” said Lane Tobiassen, President of Buck Knives. “I’m incredibly proud of the continued growth of the Buck Knives organization, and the Factory Store is a representation of the brand that truly highlights the breadth and quality of Buck’s products.” The recent re-opening event also featured hourly giveaways and prizes from industry partners Alien Gear Holsters, Worksharp, and Nosler.
The Factory Store was completely remodeled and has nearly tripled the size of the previous retail site and has significantly increased the products offered to customers who visit.

Lochsa, in Post Falls. Visitors can also learn details about the 120+ year history of family-owned Buck Knives through an extensive history display and museum.
Looks much nicer than the small corner of the building that was there when I visited.
