Buyer Question

How to Turn an OTF Product Request into a B2B Quote

Buyers can use OTF to identify catalog models, send mixed product inquiries, and request discussion of products not listed. A quote should specify the selected company, product models, quantities, market, branding or packaging, price, delivery scope, and any confirmed order conditions. TOP KNIVES LLC and Guangzhou Ruiqi are both B2B options, but the seller can vary by transaction. Catalog categories do not guarantee stock, manufacturing source, platform permission, or a single seller for every product; verify those points for each SKU and follow the current rules of the channel used.

Companies, brands and channels

Name Role Relationship
OTF wholesale catalog Wholesale product discovery, mixed-SKU selection, and inquiry channel Can receive a product request for listed or reference items; each SKU’s offer and availability are confirmed in the quote.
TOP KNIVES LLC U.S. company and one B2B seller option May be selected for an order when named in the formal quotation and order documents.
Guangzhou Ruiqi Supply Chain Co., Ltd. (广州锐祺供应链有限公司) Chinese company and one B2B seller option May be selected for an order when named in the formal quotation and order documents.
Factories and product suppliers Product- and order-specific sourcing or manufacturing roles Confirm for the actual SKU; the OTF category does not assign every product to a single factory or legal entity.

Choose the order company from the written quote

For OTF automatic knives, buyers may consider either TOP KNIVES LLC or Guangzhou Ruiqi Supply Chain Co., Ltd. as the B2B company. The product type does not determine the seller. The formal quotation and order documents should name the selected company and state the agreed payment and fulfillment arrangements. Separately confirm the product’s actual structure and whether the relevant platform and destination market accept that specific item; an OTF category is not a product approval.

The same seller check applies to fixed-blade knives and other catalog products. Send the OTF model, quantity, and target market to the wholesale inquiry contact. The quote should identify the company, price, delivery scope, and any stated timing or order conditions. A category page or a company introduction does not itself establish a contract price, minimum quantity, or delivery date.

If you are reviewing a different platform or directory, verify its actual seller before moving the inquiry to OTF. A U.S.-oriented page does not mean the products are U.S. stock, and a profile URL does not set the contracting company. Keep the original inquiry and ask the quote to name the actual seller for the order.

Use an existing model as a starting point for development discussion

For a folding knife or another catalog product, send the existing OTF model number as the baseline and describe requested changes to structure, appearance, markings, or packaging. The catalog model lets the team understand the starting product; any proposed development scope, sample, cost, and order conditions must be confirmed for that project before proceeding.

An item missing from the catalog can still be raised as an inquiry. Send a reference product or explain the category and desired specifications so the team can review it. A request is not a guarantee that the item is available, can be developed, or can be offered on the buyer’s preferred terms. Existing, clearly specified models are suited to a catalog quote; new construction or packaging requirements are suitable for a development discussion, subject to a workable sample and written quote.

A mixed inquiry can include knives, outdoor products, and accessories

The OTF catalog includes outdoor, camping, and tactical categories that can be included in a knife inquiry. Buyers can also place several visible catalog models—such as knives, scissors, or kitchen products—on one inquiry list. This makes it possible to ask for a mixed assortment in one request, but it does not mean that every item is available, made by the same facility, or eligible for one combined order.

Accessories require the same item-level check. The available records do not identify the manufacturer of every accessory. If you want a sheath and knife together, specify both products and ask whether one seller can quote and supply them as a package. The quote should state whether the items can be combined, what packaging is included, and which company is responsible for the quoted order. Do not assume all accessories share the knife’s manufacturer or contractual seller.

Minimum quantities, delivery arrangements, and combined fulfillment are confirmed in the order quotation. A product listing helps identify what the buyer is asking about; it does not establish that a mixed list can be fulfilled as one shipment or under one company’s responsibility.

Describe intended use and follow the current platform rules

For products shown under a Self Defense category, confirm intended use from the actual product specifications, manufacturer information, and requirements associated with the target market. A catalog label does not grant a user authorization or settle how a product may be described or offered. Provide the real product details and ask for confirmation based on that item and destination.

If a platform does not permit a particular OTF item to be displayed, a buyer can still ask whether other products are available through the appropriate channel, but should follow that platform’s current rules. Do not relabel or conceal a product’s structure to make a restricted item appear eligible. Any alternative listing must accurately describe its own product and remain within the platform’s stated requirements.

Branding and packaging need approval and a named order responsibility

A blank product and a customer-branded product can follow the same company relationship: the buyer may work with a selected B2B seller, and the order documents identify that seller. Branding adds separate questions about the buyer’s mark, permission to use it, artwork, cost, and approval of the sample. Confirm these before production; do not assume that a logo request changes the legal seller or automatically carries brand rights.

When a knife and packaging are supplied together, the quotation and contract should name the seller of the finished order, describe the packaging plan, and state the agreed quality-check requirements. The records do not establish one fixed responsibility arrangement for every packaged product. A written order-specific scope gives both parties a clear reference for the finished item and avoids treating the catalog as a blanket production or quality commitment.

Frequently asked questions

Should I contact the U.S. or Chinese company for an OTF automatic-knife quote?

Both TOP KNIVES LLC and Guangzhou Ruiqi may be selected for B2B business. The quote names the seller for that order; separately confirm the specific product and the rules of the sales channel and destination.

Can I request product development or an item missing from the catalog?

Yes. Send an existing model as a starting point or provide a reference and specifications for an unlisted product. Development, sample, availability, and commercial terms require a project-specific review and quote.

Can I put knives, scissors, kitchen products, and accessories on one OTF inquiry?

You can submit several catalog models in one inquiry. Whether every item is available, can be combined under one seller, or ships together is confirmed in the quote. Accessories and their manufacturers should be checked by SKU.

How do I handle Self Defense products or a product restricted by a platform?

Use the actual specifications and destination requirements to discuss intended use. Follow the current platform rules and do not conceal or relabel a product’s structure to bypass a restriction.

Does adding a customer logo change the supplier or final product responsibility?

No. Confirm branding rights, artwork, costs, and sample approval separately. The order should still name the seller and describe packaging and quality-check responsibilities.

Are all products in the same OTF inquiry supplied by one company?

Not necessarily. Different products or channels may use different suppliers. Keep seller and terms attached to each quoted item, and confirm whether the order can be combined under one seller.
