The Company&amp;#146;s reportable&#13;business segments consist of: (1) United States; (2) Canada and (3) Europe. As described below, the activities of the Company&amp;#146;s&#13;Asian operations are closely linked to those of the U.S. operations; accordingly, management reviews the financial results of both&#13;on a consolidated basis, and the results of the Asian operations have been aggregated with the results of the United States operations&#13;to form one reportable segment called the &amp;#147;United States segment&amp;#148; or &amp;#147;U.S. segment&amp;#148;. Each reportable segment&#13;derives its revenue from the sales of cutting devices, measuring instruments and safety products for school, office, home, hardware&#13;and industrial use.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;Domestic sales orders are filled from the Company&amp;#146;s distribution&#13;center in North Carolina. The Company is responsible for the costs of shipping, insurance, customs clearance, duties, storage and&#13;distribution related to such products. Orders filled from the Company&amp;#146;s inventory are generally for less than container-sized&#13;lots.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;Direct import sales are products sold by the Company&amp;#146;s Asian&#13;subsidiary, directly to major U.S. retailers, who take ownership of the products in Asia. These sales are completed by delivering&#13;product to the customers&amp;#146; common carriers at the shipping points in Asia. Direct import sales are made in larger quantities&#13;than domestic sales, typically full containers. Direct import sales represented approximately 11% and 16% of the Company&amp;#146;s&#13;total net sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 15% and 22% for the comparable periods in 2013.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;The chief operating decision maker evaluates the performance of&#13;each operating segment based on segment revenues and operating income.

The Company presently has no matters other than the environmental remediation accrual described below.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt/12pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt/12pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;In December 2008, the Company sold property it owned in Bridgeport,&#13;Connecticut to B&amp;#38;E Juices, Inc. for $2.5 million, of which $2.0 million was secured by a mortgage on the property. The property&#13;consists of approximately four acres of land and 48,000 sq. feet of warehouse space. The property was the site of the Company&amp;#146;s&#13;original scissor factory which opened in 1887 and was closed in 1996.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt/12pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;Under the terms of the sale agreement, and as required by the Connecticut&#13;Transfer Act, the Company is required to remediate any environmental contamination on the property. During 2008, the Company hired&#13;an independent environmental consulting firm to conduct environmental studies in order to identify the extent of the environmental&#13;contamination on the property and to develop a remediation plan. As a result of those studies and the estimates prepared by the&#13;independent environmental consulting firm, the Company recorded an undiscounted liability of approximately $1.8 million related&#13;to the remediation of the property. This accrual included the costs of required investigation, remedial activities, and post-remediation&#13;operating and maintenance.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;Remediation work on the project began in the third quarter of 2009&#13;and was completed during the third quarter of 2012. In addition to the completed remediation work, the Company, with the assistance&#13;of its independent environmental consulting firm, must continue to monitor contaminant levels on the property to ensure they comply&#13;with applicable governmental standards. At September 30, 2014, the Company had approximately $17,000 remaining in its accrual related&#13;to the environmental remediation, all of which was classified as a current liability at that date.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: left"&gt;On April 7, 2014, the Company sold its Fremont,&#13;NC distribution facility for $850,000 in cash. Under the terms of the sale agreement, the Company is responsible to&#13;remediate any environmental contamination on the  property.  The Company hired an independent environmental consulting firm to conduct environmental studies in order to identify&#13;the extent of the environmental contamination on the property and to develop a remediation plan. As a result of those studies and&#13;the estimates prepared by the independent environmental consulting firm, and in conjunction with the sale of the property, the&#13;Company recorded a liability of $300,000 in the second quarter of 2014, related to the remediation of the property. The accrual&#13;includes the total estimated costs of remedial activities and post-remediation operating and maintenance costs.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: left"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: left"&gt;Remediation work on the project began in the third&#13;quarter of 2014 and is expected to be completed in the first half of 2015. In addition to the remediation work, the Company, with&#13;the assistance of its independent environmental consulting firm, must continue to monitor contaminant levels on the property to&#13;ensure they comply with set governmental standards. The Company expects that the monitoring period will last a period of five years&#13;after the completion of the remediationand be complete by the end of 2020.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;

Under the terms of the sale agreement, the Company is responsible to remediate any environmental contamination&#13;on the property. The Company hired an independent environmental consulting firm to conduct environmental studies in order to identify&#13;the extent of the environmental contamination on the property and to develop a remediation plan. As a result of those studies and&#13;the estimates prepared by the independent environmental consulting firm, and in conjunction with the sale of the property, the&#13;Company recorded a liability of $300,000 in the second quarter of 2014, related to the remediation of the property. The accrual&#13;includes the costs of remedial activities and post-remediation operating and maintenance.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: left"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: left"&gt;Remediation work on the project began in the third&#13;quarter of 2014 and is expected to be completed in the first half of 2015. In addition to the remediation work, the Company, with&#13;the assistance of its independent environmental consulting firm, must continue to monitor contaminant levels on the property to&#13;ensure they comply with set governmental standards. The Company expects that the monitoring period will last a period of five years&#13;and be complete by the end of 2020.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0;
