Just found this. Nice to have a list of where things are made. However I am sure some of these companies have a China cheap line. Broke my heart to see JA Henckels stamped made in China. I could accept Argentina, but not China!

Interesting website. Thanks for the link.

I have a lot of $$ tied up in knives. Mostly Bucks and Spyderco. I only buy their US made lines. Very sad to see Buck bend over and have their Chinese line

I try really hard to only buy US made items. What freaks me out the most is seeing canned goods and even some fresh food from China. Good lord who knows what’s in that crap. I’ll pay a few cents extra per unit for stuff canned in this country thanks.

Also I know Danner has an offshore line. Not sure if China or vietnam but the US line is much nicer. I have a pair of Orvis cross branded Danner’s. I plan to wear them till I die and that may include getting them resoled at some future time. But like 20 years ago they were several hundred which was a grip of money. Buy once cry once

Try to buy as much non China as possible. Bought two pair of American made shoes from SAS shoe company. Their shoes are American made with American material and wear like iron. And you won’t have to buy three pairs of the China crap every year instead. They cost more but quality is worth it.

Yeah it looks like they try to list items in a brand that are not US made. I would think you could email to let them know to update the site?
