tsmccullQuestion about NorthernTool vendors
Got the latest NorthernTool catalog the other day and noticed a lot of items for sale from either Klutch or Ironton. Anybody know which country or countries those manufacturers? are associated with?

El Cid 92The brief research I did.... Yep, you guessed it China!!! At that price point, that's the origin of most everything that is disposable.

bubbatimeEverything at Northern tool is almost entirely made in China or Taiwan... probably 95%+ of the stores inventory.

tsmccullThanks, I was afraid that would be the case. Catalog’s in the trash.

I look at that stuff as much as possible and it's a small victory when I see Mexico or Vietnam today.
