List of knife manufacturers for a collection. Check it out and add any if you can!

Great project! Many of those listed are not manufacturers, or are no longer manufacturers. Hiro and Hiro I.C. Cut are the same.

One off the top of my head would be Paul Chen (CAS Hanwei)-China
 
Ok here a few more........
Rogers of Sheffield (come to think of it there are a number of Sheffield Manufacturers still out there)
Burger Knives
Berti Knives
Rowen (they manufacture all the ESEE knives)
Okapi Knives (If you want a few I will send you some)

A few things to remember..........

Cripple Creek is now made by GEC. If you want an original Bob Cargill knife they are hard to find.

Many "Manufacturers" are essentially marketing operations. An example of this is DPX. They make nothing. All their knives have been made by Rowen and Lion Steel.

Vox Knives (Jesper Voxnaes) is a custom maker. His only foray into production was with Boker.

I want to help you if I can, so post up a list of the 35 manufacturers you have and if I can add to it I will send them off to you.

At, say, $100 per knife you are looking at some serious coin if you are going to get two of each. Something like $80K
 
Nice endeavor you've got for yourself! I'd like to see photos if you ever reach 50% finished!

My father was the engineer for the original Benchmark knives located in Gastonia NC.. You may want to talk to me or to Dad as he has an extensive collection of first run low serial number knives and tons of info.
