    These are FINAL SALES, NO RETURNS!!!

    If we are oversold you will be notified!!! 

    Every knife on this page is discounted off its MSRP, and every one of them is still covered by full manufacturer support since Knifeworks is an authorized dealer for every brand we sell. These aren't factory seconds or off-brand imports: they're genuine closeouts, discontinued colorways, and overstock from brands like CIVIVI, WE Knife Co., Spyderco, and Templar Knife Co.

    Inventory here changes constantly since it's pulled from whatever's currently marked down across the catalog, so the mix on any given day might run heavy on Templar's OTF and automatic lineup, WE Knife Co.'s titanium framelock folders, or Spyderco's lightweight FRN-handle EDC knives. Once a specific closeout item sells out, it's typically gone for good.

    Prices here run from budget EDC folders under $35 up through titanium flagship folders discounted several hundred dollars off MSRP, so there's real savings whether you're stocking up on a backup blade or finally picking up a knife you've had on a wishlist.

    Why is this knife discounted?Closeout pricing here usually means a colorway or handle material is being discontinued, a model is being replaced by a newer version, or Knifeworks is clearing overstock, not that anything is wrong with the knife itself.

    Call 888-225-9775 — our team can check current stock on any closeout item and let you know if a size or colorway is limited.

    The Sale & Closeout Buyer's Guide (2026)

    What "sale" and "closeout" actually mean at Knifeworks, how to tell a real deal from an inflated MSRP, and what's currently discounted.

    What Does "Sale" Mean on This Page?+

    Every item here is priced below its MSRP, but the reason varies: a colorway or handle material being discontinued, a model being phased out for a newer version, a single-item overstock correction, or a manufacturer-run promotional price drop. None of it is factory-second or damaged merchandise, and every item still ships with full manufacturer warranty support through Knifeworks as an authorized dealer.

    Because this page pulls from whatever is currently marked down storewide, the brand mix shifts over time. Right now it includes automatic and OTF knives from Templar Knife Co., titanium folders from WE Knife Co., budget-friendly EDC from CIVIVI and Sencut, and lightweight FRN folders from Spyderco.

    Automatic & OTF Knives on Sale — Legal Considerations+

    Closeout inventory frequently includes automatic and out-the-front (OTF) knives, particularly from Templar Knife Co., whose Excalibur and Premium Lightweight OTF lines make up a large share of current sale stock. Automatic knife laws vary significantly by state, county, and city in the United States, and some jurisdictions restrict blade length, mechanism type, or possession entirely.

    Know Your Local LawsKnifeworks cannot provide legal advice on automatic knife ownership in your area. Laws differ by state, county, and city, and it is the buyer's responsibility to confirm what is legal where they live before purchasing. The American Knife & Tool Institute (akti.org) maintains state-by-state knife law summaries as a starting reference point.

    How to Shop Closeouts Without Regret+

    Read the listing title and photos carefully, since closeout items sometimes come in a specific handle color, blade grind, or configuration that won't be restocked once it's gone. Check the "Out of Stock" status before falling in love with a specific colorway, and call 888-225-9775 if you want to confirm exact quantity remaining before ordering. If the item you want is out of stock, ask about similar current-production alternatives from the same brand instead of waiting on a restock that likely won't happen.

    Sale: Frequently Asked Questions

    Answers from Knifeworks' team on how closeout pricing works and what's currently discounted.

    What does "Sale" mean at Knifeworks?+

    Sale items are priced below MSRP because a colorway is being discontinued, a model is being phased out, or Knifeworks is clearing overstock. They aren't factory seconds or damaged goods, and every one still carries full manufacturer warranty support.

    What's the difference between Sale and Special Price?+

    Sale items are closeouts and discontinued stock that won't be reordered once they sell through. Special Price items are ongoing reduced pricing on select current catalog products that typically do get restocked.

    Will a sold-out Sale item come back in stock?+

    Usually not. Closeout inventory is whatever's left of a discontinued run, so once a specific colorway or configuration sells out, it typically isn't reordered. Call 888-225-9775 if you want to confirm before a specific item sells through.

    Are the automatic and OTF knives on this page legal to own?+

    It depends entirely on where you live. Automatic knife laws vary by state, county, and city, and Knifeworks cannot provide legal advice on what's permitted in your area. The American Knife & Tool Institute (akti.org) maintains state-by-state summaries as a starting reference point, but you should confirm current local law before purchasing.

    Which brands are usually included in the Sale section?+

    The mix changes as inventory shifts, but Templar Knife Co. OTFs and automatics, WE Knife Co. titanium folders, CIVIVI and Sencut budget EDC, Spyderco lightweight folders, and ESEE fixed blades are commonly represented.

    Is closeout pricing the lowest price these knives will ever be?+

    For a specific closeout colorway or configuration, generally yes, since it typically isn't restocked at any price once sold out. Current-production versions of the same model may still be available on the brand's regular category page at full price.

    Can I return a Sale item if it doesn't work out?+

    Sale items follow Knifeworks' standard return policy. Call 888-225-9775 or check the returns information on the site for current details, since a small number of closeout or final-sale items may be marked non-returnable on their individual product pages.

    Does Knifeworks add new items to the Sale page regularly?+

    Yes. Closeouts are added as manufacturers discontinue colorways, phase out models, or run promotional price drops, so it's worth checking back regularly if you're watching for a specific brand or price range.
