Cutco

Verified sources

We checked this business against our three rules. Here is the public proof we found:

• ✓ American owned

  Official Our Story: "Cutco is a family-owned, small-town manufacturing company." It says the company as it exists today was formed in 1982 after a management buyout from ALCOA that took the company private. No foreign parent. (This name was held in the earlier thin-states pass because official ownership pages could not be fetched; the official About/Our Story page now states family ownership clearly.)
