Founded in the mid?2010s, this U.S.?based manufacturer produces specialized equipment for knife makers and other metal artisans. The enterprise is run by an engineer with more than four decades of experience in automation and precision fixture design. Products include belt grinders and other machinery that combine features—such as variable?speed motors and multiple grinding attachments—that many competitors sell as costly add?ons. The mission statement emphasizes delivering innovative equipment made in the United States under strict quality control. The business generates approximately $200,000 in annual revenue and about $100,000 in net income to the owner, all with a single employee. The sale includes all product designs, manufacturing fixtures, intellectual property and the e?commerce website. Training and transition support are offered, and the seller may consider financing for a qualified buyer. Buyer will need approximately 1,000 square feet to move the operation as Seller operates out of his home shop.

- Market Outlook / Competition
- The company sells into a niche market of serious hobbyist and professional knife makers as well as metal fabrication shops. Comparable machines exist, but many cost substantially more and charge extra for features that this firm includes as standard equipment. For example, the flagship belt grinder comes with both a flat platen and a serrated wheel attachment and includes a variable?speed motor, features competitors typically offer only as add?ons. All designed and built in the United States.
- Opportunities for Growth
- This business is operated by the owner and one part-time employee but he currently farms out some of the work which could be done in house should Buyer prefer. He designs and fabricates several types of knife?making machines. Demand currently exceeds the owner’s production capacity, with lead times on the flagship belt grinder running two to four weeks.
