Okay, I'll stipulate a definition
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stipulative_definition) here just to get
things rolling:

knowledge product: (n) an item created to satisfy a need for facts
and/or information.

As near as I can tell, this is the meaning underlying the few uses of
the term I've seen.
