Nothing except their website.

TRENCHTEK

TRENCHTEK

trenchtek.com

I tried reading through some of it but gave up without really gleaning any info about much. Their "truth through transparency" page might contain specific details about actual construction... somewhere in the 30 pages of run-on blathering... but I ran out of patience trying to find it.

They appear to be on the mid spendy side, but ordering is only through submitting a call back request (he'll call you directly within 48hrs), take your order and make "secure payment" over the phone.

I think NOT!

That looks like an AliExpress Special. "Assembled in America" maybe? But I doubt it. If I had to guess, he just ordered a few cases and requested they stamp TRENCHTEK on the clip. Looks like the handles and button are made out of Hot Wheels cars (zamac - a mix of aluminum, magnesium, and copper... and sometimes lead).

Police Contracts?? Hey, these days who knows... lol

[Knobgoblin]

[StacattoP]

100 for the knife I bought

Depends. The small is an even huny.. up to 125 for the "large" in that style. Doesn't exactly seem like a great gypsy truck bed deal, but to each their own.

(Spear point and tanto also available.. same price points)

You'll be able to open Amazon boxes and boxes of other switchblades for years with it.

You wont get a Benchmade for that price but congrats, this ones a bonafied street knife is kinda cool in its own right.

so I did a quick search for OTF knife laws for Oregon and the first link I check shows a picture of one saying its from northwestfirearms.com
Wonder if the owner knows about this.

 

[Member 53328]

Knife laws are even more pathetic than gun laws.

Rest assured these are definitely not cheap off knifes. I've actually spoke with the owner and he stands behind his product and is willing to awnser a million questions there no pressure to buy.

I never commented on the quality or price point based on their quality. I have no way of knowing.
I was only responding to the comment that said the roadside price was lower than the website's... which ranges from $100-$125 depending on size... so $100 off the truck may or may not be all that great of a deal.

Just informational purposes for those that may not elect to price check their website on their own... and inform that the website offers several different blade options all at the same price points. That's all....

 

[StacattoP]

Absolutely! I really appreciate you're input! I was just assureing people that for the price point they are well built knifes and my apologies if I came off any other way

I thought guns were expensive. The knife scene is another world….
