Anyone else think this will be a problem for the US knife industry? Personally, I think it might be an excuse for US makers to raise prices even more. Spyderco's surprise 2018 price hike could become the norm, for example. KnifeNews posted an article downplaying the potential effects, and made some good points. But they didn't account enough for greed, IMO.

I feel that this might give makers (especially larger makers that use a lot of non-US steels in their budget options) the excuse to raise prices even further. They can blame Trump for it, after all...

Just curious. And a little worried.

Oh, 1st post, BTW. Nice to be here. Long time lurker, just made an account.
