Nashville, TN — The Country Note just got an exclusive sneak peek, y’all — Country music star Lee Brice is partnering with Welmade Knives, Southern Diamond Jewelers, and Nashville Tactical Lounge on a one-of-a-kind collector’s knife celebrating America’s 250th anniversary.
During a livestream preview shared with The Country Note, Brice joined Welmade Knives’ Eli Leathers to reveal the early stages of what has now become the completed Lee Brice 250th Anniversary Diamond Knife—an exclusive edition adorned with 178 brilliant white diamonds weighing in at 4.40 carats (VS clarity), complemented by 32 vibrant rubies and sapphires totaling 1.7 carats, all masterfully set in 4.2 ounces of sterling silver, making it a truly unique collector’s piece.
In a conversation with the craftsmen at WELmade, we learned the heartfelt story behind this special 250th Anniversary Artisan knife — straight from the hands that built it.
The Why Behind the 250th Anniversary Artisan
Some moments deserve more than another product release. America only celebrates its 250th birthday once. As craftsmen, Welmade asked themselves one question: If we were going to build one knife that represented the spirit of this country, what would it look like?
The answer wasn’t to make it bigger or more expensive. It was to make something that told a story. Every detail was chosen with intention. The American flag Cerakote blade represents the nation that gave us the freedom to build by hand. The eagle in the handle stands for strength, courage, and independence. Sterling silver, genuine white diamonds, and genuine sapphires weren’t added for flash—they represent something meant to last, something that can be passed down long after this anniversary is over. A true heirloom.
Lee Brice signed the presentation box, and this one-of-one Artisan comes with a custom leather sheath bearing his signature stamp—bringing together American music, American craftsmanship, and American heritage in one piece.
This isn’t just a custom knife. It’s a tribute to 250 years of grit, sacrifice, innovation, and the people who built this country with their own hands. Rather than put it behind a five-figure price tag for one collector, the team wanted people from all over the country to have a chance to own it. That’s why they’re raffling it for just $25 per entry.
Whether you’re a veteran, a first responder, a hunter, a collector, a tradesman, or simply someone who loves this country, this knife was built for what America represents: hard work, freedom, and the opportunity to leave something meaningful behind.
This isn’t just our most ambitious Artisan.
It’s our way of saying thank you to the country that made WELmade possible.
In the Instagram reel, Lee Brice himself appears alongside Eli from WELmade Knives, sharing the excitement around this special piece. It’s a heartfelt collaboration that perfectly blends country music star power with premium, handcrafted blades built to be passed down for generations.
