I remember getting a couple of catalogs from SMKW as a kid, and then begging my mom to mail in the order form for me and my brother. This was all pre-website days mind you. I think we wore those catalogs out, dog earing pages of "possible" purchases, and highlighting what we wanted on each page, before mom would give us a budget, and then we'd really have to narrow it down. I'm sure much of our purchases were encouraged by Tom Odell on the cutlery network as they hocked a lot of the same frost cutlery and simlar import brands of knives.
Frost, Master, the "poor man" brand, etc.... were kind of the mainstays of my crappy chinese knife collection from SMKW. I just had to have a "LINER LOCK WITH A SPRING STEEL BELT, BOOT AND POCKET CLIP IN 440 SURGICAL GRADE STAINLESS STEEL WITH AN ADJUSTABLE TENSION SCREW!" so that the knife just flicks right open.

Then there was the 15" long "poor man" bowie that was about 1/4" thick, saber ground, and weight about 5 lbs with a molded plastic handle, cheaply riveted into place.
I've still got a handful of those knives laying in a box somewhere. No telling what happened to all of them.
I'd love to actually visit the store one day, though I don't find myself in TN too often. Maybe we'll take a quick detour next time we drive down to visit the inlaws in south Florida.
