What kind of question is this exactly? It's obviously not something that they would advertise. How are you doing economically? If you want to know, you need to call them and ask. ;)
 
I'm pretty impress with a couple of the Kershaws that was showcased at Blade '12 and now they are available through online dealers the Cryo and the Blur CPM154 blade steel. I'm starting to like Kershaw again.
 
Kershaw is owned by Kai Industries Ltd. of Japan and I can't tell if it is publicly traded. As far as I can tell Benchmade is privately held and we know Spyderco is.

Kai is the only one that might make that info public (unless I am wrong about Benchmade)

Why? Do you want to invest in them? Seems like if you have to ask here than the info isn't clear enough to invest your money in.

If you are thinking of starting a knife company than that would be like wanting to start making a soda and asking how Coke and Pepsi is doing. You are not going to compete to them in production or world market, you would be a niche market.

If you are just mildly curious I feel like an idiot for looking into it for you

Kai and Spyderco both have mentioned maxing out production capacity (Spyderco at Golden and Kai with ZT models). I suppose that doesn't necessarily mean they're doing well, but at the least it isn't a bad sign in terms of demand.
