A class-action lawsuit has been filed against Buck Knives claiming that it falsely marketed its products as \u201cMade in USA.\u201d This $200000 lawsuit is expected to benefit consumers who bought one or more Buck Knives knife-sheath combinations between 1st<\/sup> March 2008 and 17th<\/sup> February 2022. Buck Knives is a reputed manufacturer of knives, including pocket knives, hunting knives, cutlery, fishing knives, and even custom knives. The company uses premium-grade materials in manufacturing its knives which undergo refined processes and have thoughtful designs. However, Buck Knives have been alleged to falsely advertise<\/a> its products as \u201cMade in USA\u201d for charging a higher price from its customers.<\/p>\n

The knives were manufactured in America, but the sheaths were imported as per the lawsuit. This gave adequate ground to the consumers to contend that Buck Knives illegally marketed the combination products as \u201cMade in USA.\u201d The plaintiffs further argued that this misleading advertising caused them to pay a higher price for the combination products than what they would have paid if they had clear knowledge about the products\u2019 origins. Although Buck Knives have not admitted to any wrongdoing, they have agreed to honor the $200000 settlement for resolving the allegations made by the plaintiffs.<\/p>\n

The Class Members are eligible to receive cash payments for every knife purchased. You can either file a claim to benefit from the terms of the settlement, do nothing, and remain to be a part of the class, exclude yourself from or object to the settlement<\/a>. If the court approves the settlement and you do not exclude yourself, then you will be bound by the judgments and orders of the court even if you do not file a claim. If you have any legal action against the defendant related to the allegations in the lawsuit, then that will be released once the settlement receives the court\u2019s approval.<\/p>\n

Eligibility for Making Claim:\u00a0The benefits of this class action settlement is applicable to consumers who bought at least one or more Buck Knives knife-sheath combinations for personal use between 1st<\/sup> March 2008 and 17th<\/sup> February 2022. This pertains to the following<\/p>\n
