Our shop had very small beginnings, in April 2019 Michael Sayers of Sevierville Tennessee established SayersCo., LLC and the subsidiary, RiveryCNC. The majority of Michael’s career before this was spent in the Mechanical Engineering field working for a small pet products company resulting in 13 patents. Ready for a new chapter, Michael took a leap of faith into the world of CNC machining and purchased his first mill and founded Rivery CNC. The name is derived from a combination of the two daughters he wished to provide for.
Michael wanted to lay the foundation of a true American business that would serve his community and loved ones for generations to come. He started small, designing small fidget, and EDC themed products that were 100% made in America. With some success he doubled down on producing his own fidget and puzzle themed products through Kickstarter, and looked for more work! It was during this time that Rivery CNC morphed into a job shop and worked to provide many locations with firearm parts and accessories, automotive components, and even government contracts with quality products that were 100% made in America.
After a few years of operation Michael was ready to grow and began making strides in shop expansion. In January of 2024 Rivery CNC made the transition to Rivery Manufacturing and took the market by storm with an innovative haptic OTF utility knife. Teaming up with Ryan from The Panda Cabana, Michael has turned Rivery into an international powerhouse. Since our founding we have grown our employee capacity by 200% and hope to continue to provide our consumers with authentic American products & grow our family to extend the opportunity to others with the same passion for quality Knives and American made goods.
