Based in Dallas, TX, Templar Knife announced plans to expand and bring some of its manufacturing in-house.

Templar said its production facility would feature new coating assets and a fiber laser, boosting capacity for various designs. The plant would also showcase CNC, EDM and End Mill machines adding to Templar’s solutions. The expansion is in response to the demand for its range of knives.

“This is an important milestone for Templar. With this expansion, we will increase production capacity substantially and simultaneously increase quality control,” said Shawn Cauble, CEO of Templar Knife. “I strongly believe that this growth is largely because of our valued retail partners and, of course, our loyal customers. The addition of the new, in-house machines puts the company in a whole new category and ultimately allows Templar to fulfill the needs of those retailers and consumers that want 100 percent American-made knives.”
