Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | 1. Basis of Presentation In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Acme United Corporation (the “Company”). These adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. However, the financial statements do not include all the disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America or those normally made in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K. Please refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 for such disclosures. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 was derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to June 30, 2019 and through the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements, Leases (Topic 842) Narrow Scope Improvements for Lessors, At transition, lessees and lessors may elect to apply a package of practical expedients permitting entities not to reassess: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; (ii) lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (iii) whether initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases qualify for capitalization under the amended guidance. These practical expedients must be elected as a package and consistently applied. We have elected to apply the package of practical expedients upon adoption. The most significant effects of adoption relate to the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on our balance sheet for operating leases and providing new disclosures about leasing activities. Upon adoption, on January 1, 2019, the Company booked a right-of-use asset of $2.9 million and a corresponding lease liability. See note 9 for additional information. In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income . In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20), Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue from Contracts with Customers | 4 Revenue from Contracts with Customers On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers Nature of Goods and Services The Company recognizes revenue from the sales of a broad line of products that are grouped into two main categories: (i) cutting, sharpening and other; and (ii) first aid and safety. The cutting, sharpening and other category includes scissors, knives, paper trimmers, pencil sharpeners and other sharpening tools. The first aid and safety category includes first aid kits and refills and a variety of safety products. Revenue recognition is evaluated through the following five steps: (i) identification of the contract or contracts with a customer; (ii) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determination of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price in the contract; and (v) recognition of revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied. When Performance Obligations Are Satisfied A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Revenue is generated by the sale of the Company’s products to its customers. Sales contracts (purchase orders) generally have a single performance obligation that is satisfied at a point in time, with shipment or delivery, depending on the terms of the underlying contract. Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in the contract. The amount of consideration we receive and revenue we recognize is impacted by incentives ("customer rebates"), including sales rebates, which are generally tied to sales volume levels, in-store promotional allowances, shared media and customer catalog allowances and other cooperative advertising arrangements; freight allowance programs offered to our customers; and allowance for returns and discounts. We generally recognize customer rebate costs as a deduction to gross sales at the time that the associated revenue is recognized. Significant Payment Terms Payment terms for each customer are dependent on the agreed upon contractual repayment terms. Payment terms typically are between 30 and 90 days, and vary depending on the size of the customer and its risk profile to the Company. Some customers receive discounts for early payment. Product Returns The Company accepts product returns in the normal course of business. The Company estimates reserves for returns and the related refunds to customers based on historical experience. Reserves for returned merchandise are included as a component of “Accounts receivable” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Practical Expedient Usage and Accounting Policy Elections The Company has determined to utilize the modified retrospective approach which requires cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the current year. This opening adjustment is determined based on the impact of the new revenue standard’s application on contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018, the date of initial application of the standard. This election did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. For the Company’s contracts that have an original duration of one year or less, the Company uses the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-32-18 applicable to such contracts and does not consider the time value of money in relation to significant financing components. The effect of applying this practical expedient election did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Per ASC 606-10-25-18B, the Company has elected to account for shipping and handling activities that occur after the customer has obtained control as a fulfillment activity instead of a performance obligation. Furthermore, shipping and handling activities performed before transfer of control of the product also do not constitute a separate and distinct performance obligation. The effect of applying this practical expedient election did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has elected to exclude from the transaction price those amounts which relate to sales and other taxes that are assessed by governmental authorities and that are imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the Company from a customer. Applying the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4, Other Assets and Deferred Costs, Disaggregation of Revenues The following table represents external net sales disaggregated by product category (amounts in thousands): For the three months ended June 30, 2019: U.S. Canada Europe Total Cutting, Sharpening and Other $ 18,833 $ 2,155 $ 3,007 $ 23,995 First Aid and Safety 16,225 — — 16,225 Total Net Sales $ 35,058 $ 2,155 $ 3,007 $ 40,220 For the three months ended June 30, 2018: U.S. Canada Europe Total Cutting, Sharpening and Other $ 19,808 $ 2,472 $ 2,501 $ 24,781 First Aid and Safety 14,970 — — 14,970 Total Net Sales $ 34,778 $ 2,472 $ 2,501 $ 39,751 For the six months ended June 30, 2019 U.S. Canada Europe Total Cutting, Sharpening and Other $ 32,005 $ 3,568 $ 5,525 $ 41,098 First Aid and Safety 30,492 — — 30,492 Total Net Sales $ 62,497 $ 3,568 $ 5,525 $ 71,590 For the six months ended June 30, 2018 U.S. Canada Europe Total Cutting, Sharpening and Other $ 32,304 $ 4,024 $ 4,881 $ 41,209 First Aid and Safety 30,251 — — 30,251 Total Net Sales $ 62,555 $ 4,024 $ 4,881 $ 71,460 |

Debt and Shareholders Equity | 5. Debt and Shareholders’ Equity On May 24, 2018, the Company amended its revolving loan agreement with HSBC Bank, N.A. The amendment lowered the interest rate to LIBOR plus 1.75%; interest is payable monthly. In addition, the expiration date of the credit facility was extended to May 24, 2023. The prior interest rate was LIBOR plus 2%. The amount available for borrowing remains unchanged at $50 million. The Company must pay a facility fee, payable quarterly, in an amount equal to two tenths of one percent (.20%) per annum of the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit line. The facility is intended to provide liquidity for growth, acquisitions, share repurchases, dividends, and other business activities. Under the revolving loan agreement, the Company is required to maintain specific amounts of tangible net worth, a specified debt to net worth ratio and a fixed charge coverage ratio and must have annual net income greater than zero, measured as of the end of each fiscal year. At June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the loan agreement. As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company had outstanding borrowings of approximately $39,388,000 and $40,283,000, respectively, under the Company’s revolving loan agreement with HSBC. On October 26, 2017, the Company exercised its option to purchase its First Aid Only manufacturing and distribution center in Vancouver, WA for $4.0 million. The property consists of 53,000 square feet of office, manufacturing, and warehouse space on 2.86 acres. The purchase was financed by a variable rate mortgage with HSBC Bank, N.A. at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.5%. Commencing on December 1, 2017, principal payments of $22,222 are due monthly, with all amounts outstanding due on maturity on October 31, 2024. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company paid approximately $699,000 and $779,000, respectively, to optionees who had elected a net cash settlement of their respective employee stock options. |

Segment Information | |
Segment Information | 6. Segment Information The Company reports financial information based on the organizational structure used by the Company’s chief operating decision makers for making operating and investment decisions and for assessing performance. The Company’s reportable business segments consist of: (1) United States; (2) Canada; and (3) Europe. As described below, the activities of the Company’s Asian operations are closely linked to those of the U.S. operations; accordingly, the Company’s chief operating decision makers review the financial results of both on a consolidated basis, and the results of the Asian operations have been aggregated with the results of the United States operations to form one reportable segment called the “United States segment” or “U.S. segment”. Each reportable segment derives its revenue from the sales of cutting devices, measuring instruments and first aid and safety products for school, office, home, hardware, sporting and industrial use. Domestic sales orders are filled primarily from the Company’s distribution centers in North Carolina, Washington, Massachusetts, Tennessee and California. The Company is responsible for the costs of shipping, insurance, customs clearance, duties, storage and distribution related to such products. Orders filled from the Company’s inventory are generally for less than container-sized lots. Direct import sales are products sold by the Company’s Asian subsidiary, directly to major U.S. retailers, who take ownership of the products in Asia. These sales are completed by delivering product to the customers’ common carriers at the shipping points in Asia. Individual direct import sales are made in larger quantities than domestic sales, typically full containers. Direct import sales represented approximately 19% and 14% of the Company’s total net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, compared to 18% and 13% for the comparable periods in 2018. The Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates the performance of each operating segment based on segment revenues and operating income. Segment revenues are defined as total revenues, including both external customer revenue and inter-segment revenue. Segment operating earnings are defined as segment revenues, less cost of goods sold and operating expenses. Identifiable assets by segment are those assets used in the respective reportable segment’s operations. Inter-segment amounts are eliminated to arrive at consolidated financial results. The following table sets forth certain financial data by segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018: Financial data by segment: (in thousands) Three months ended Six months ended Sales to external customers: 2019 2018 2019 2018 United States $ 34,958 $ 34,778 $ 62,423 $ 62,555 Canada 2,216 2,472 3,628 4,024 Europe 3,046 2,501 5,539 4,881 Consolidated $ 40,220 $ 39,751 $ 71,590 $ 71,460 Operating income: United States $ 3,271 $ 2,912 $ 4,529 $ 4,028 Canada 360 543 495 682 Europe 137 170 279 280 Consolidated $ 3,768 $ 3,625 $ 5,303 $ 4,990 Interest expense, net 491 445 994 850 Other expense, net 14 74 12 61 Consolidated income before income taxes $ 3,263 $ 3,106 $ 4,297 $ 4,079 Assets by segment: (in thousands) June 30, December 31, 2019 2018 United States $ 105,556 $ 99,721 Canada 4,880 3,839 Europe 6,594 5,918 Consolidated $ 117,030 $ 109,478 |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | 9. Leases The Company has operating leases for office and warehouse space and equipment under various arrangements which provide the right to use the underlying asset and require lease payments for the lease term. The Company’s lease portfolio consists of operating leases which expire at various dates through 2024. Certain of the Company’s lease arrangements contain renewal provisions, exercisable at the Company's option. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The Company determines if an arrangement is an operating lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. All other leases are recorded on the balance sheet with right-of-use (“ROU”) assets representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities representing the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term and include options to extend or terminate the lease when they are reasonably certain to be exercised. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, the present value of lease payments is determined primarily using our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date. Lease agreements with lease and non-lease components are generally accounted for as a single lease component. The Company’s operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Operating lease cost was $0.3 million and $0.6 million for the three and six-months ending June 30, 2019, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, $0.1 million is included in cost of goods sold and $0.2 million is included in selling, general and administrative expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, $0.2 million is included in cost of goods sold and $0.4 million is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
