Helpful Staff of KnifeCenter


Howard & Cindy Korn
Owner & CEO

 

Welcome to our site. We began working with and selling knives in 1984 and developed the first web site selling cutlery and shaving products in 1995. As a company and as an individual, our loyalty is to you, our customer, and we do everything we can to make your buying experience as easy and pleasurable as possible. In 2014 we moved into a large facility in central Virginia allowing us to expand our selection of fine products and our service. For the last 20 years, we have been pioneers in the ecommerce industry and we are all very proud of the result. The best part of the job is hearing from our satisfied customers and being able to work with the wonderful people listed below!

Cindy is the lady in charge of the place. She brings grace, charm, humor and usually a car full of lunch goodies for the troops. Someone has to do the administrative and grunt work of running a company and she does it with style. After hours she is running her home!

Daily Carries:
Howard: Leatherman Skeletool
Cindy: Letter Opener



Josh
Chief Operating Officer
Josh runs the KnifeCenter. As an all around ecommerce guru and idea person, Josh creates sales campaigns and newsletters, finds new software as well as helps in the warehouse, cleans up all messes, and every other task needed. A Maryland graduate, the one person who knows the score…is Josh. After hours, he is being trained by his two young sons. They say he is making progress!
Daily Carry: Spyderco Manix2


Jason
Buyer
Jason has been in the business for over 30 years, working for mom and pop brick and mortar, chain brick and mortar, distribution, and now nearly 15 years at the KnifeCenter! His job is to get great deals on knives, and put out all the fires that happen in the process of getting them into stock! When not at work he likes to hike and camp and bike…a little old-house-fixing-up..and as much travel as he can sneak off for!
Daily Carry: Spydercos and Chris Reeves


Cheryl
Office Manager
One of the wonderful and helpful voices you will hear when you call in, Cheryl is an office gem. She brings her years of experience to the Knifecenter helping us through each trial and tribulation with the ease of a pro. Evenings are spent in her garden and with her wonderful granddaughter, Ileana.

Tom

Bruce
Creative Director
Our in-house creative expert, Bruce designs and codes all the pages at KnifeCenter and guides our creative staff. It isn’t easy creating work that the administrators will then criticize — and redo it all with a great attitude. He does a great job. After hours, his three young children keep him busy.
Daily Carry: Benchmade Nakamura


David
Digital Marketing Manager
David C. Andersen is our resident video personality and knife designer. He started out as a writer for The Truth About Knives and he is also the founder of Nordsmith Knives, channeling his passion into new and original designs.

Evenings with his wife are spent cooking, working on prototypes for new Nordsmith designs, and dreaming of his next camping trip.

Nick
Product Specialist
Nick is another product specialist and came to us after getting his engineering degree from Maryland U. He brings a wealth of talent as the consummate “knife guy” and keeps everyone at the KnifeCenter up to date on all the products. He knows a lot about the knives because he owns at least one of every great knife we sell! After hours he is playing broom ball, frisbee and playing with his dog, Kona.
Daily Carry: Lots of ZT’sSpydercos and a few Benchmades


Patty
Customer Service
The very heart of the business, Patty is the go-to person for anything she can be of assistance with. With a heart of gold and a strong whip, she gets it done every day. At night she tries to recover from the day.

MattD
Product Specialist / Customs Buyer
MattD has been a friend of the Knifecenter since before 2000. Recently he joined forces with us and is one of the KnifeCenter’s major buyers of custom knives. No one has more friends in the industry than Matt and we are very happy he decided to work inside our office instead of just visiting from time to time. After hours it’s all about the two little grand daughters.

Daily Carry: Teeth & Claws…and a wet nose


Pepper
The cutest “Ewok” looking little dog in the world, Pepper is a lot of fun to have in the office. He will occasionally “yap” but usually he just bothers the other dogs until they play with him.
