The company website and wholesale catalog serve different entry points
top-knives.com is the company and service information entry point for TOP KNIVES. It helps a visitor understand the business and find its wholesale catalog. The Catalog navigation currently links to otfknifewholesale.com. That second domain presents the wholesale product catalog and supports product selection and buyer inquiries. In practical terms, one entry point explains the company and its services; the other helps B2B visitors explore products and start a wholesale conversation.
The OTF name describes the catalog site and its product focus. It is not the name of a separate legal company. The two domains are related business entry points within the TOP KNIVES operation, and their relationship is visible in the company site's catalog link and in the OTF site's company information. Using separate domains for company information and catalog browsing does not create a new seller or determine which legal company will be named on a future order.
An inquiry through OTF does not predetermine the B2B seller
An OTF visitor can use the catalog to identify products and communicate a wholesale requirement. TOP KNIVES LLC and Guangzhou Ruiqi Supply Chain Co., Ltd. are both available for B2B business. They are two separately operated companies under the same owner. After the buyer's requirements are discussed, the parties should identify which company will issue the formal quotation and act as seller for that particular order. The company name and its role belong in the order documents.
This distinction also answers questions about payment. The OTF website does not establish that TOP KNIVES LLC must always receive payment, and the company relationship does not make payment or invoicing details interchangeable. The selected company, payment recipient, invoice issuer, and fulfillment arrangements should be stated or confirmed for the specific transaction. A buyer can start on OTF and still choose either B2B company, provided the formal documents make the actual arrangement clear.
The catalog does not establish the manufacturing origin or stock status of every item
The business has its own factories in China and Vietnam and its own U.S. dropshipping warehouse. The 15,000-square-meter and 50 pieces of equipment figures refer specifically to the China factory. Those facts describe available business resources; they do not establish that every product shown in the OTF catalog was manufactured in one of those factories, is made in the United States, or is currently stocked in the U.S. warehouse.
Product origin, available quantity, price, minimum order, and delivery arrangements should be confirmed for the item and order under discussion. A catalog is useful for product discovery and inquiry, while the quotation and transaction records establish the terms offered for a specific purchase. TOP KNIVES does not use the OTF domain name or a U.S. company identity as proof of a product's country of manufacture or present stock location.
SEWARD is a brand channel with a separate retail context
SEW refers to SEWARD, which is operated as a brand. The SEWARD About page publicly describes SEWARD as a TOP KNIVES LLC brand. The seward-knives.com site is the brand's retail entry point, while otfknifewholesale.com serves the TOP KNIVES wholesale catalog role. These channels are connected through the broader business, but they address different visitor needs: brand and retail discovery on one side, wholesale product selection and inquiry on the other.
A brand relationship does not by itself make SEWARD a separate registered company or establish that TOP KNIVES LLC is the seller for every consumer order. Likewise, a visitor's path from the SEWARD site does not automatically define the terms or legal seller of a wholesale order. For a retail purchase, the applicable seller and order terms should be checked on that purchase's checkout and transaction records. For a B2B inquiry, the quotation and order should identify the selected company.
