Sorry to disagree, but Bucks are now ALL made in China. They closed the last US plant many years ago now. I agree Case knives are still relatively high quality, but they are getting very hard to find, and being made from carbon steel, they are difficult to keep from rusting in the maritime climate I live in. For a good stainless blade, you're still stuck having a custom folder made. Though I have to say, the stainless Damascus blades are works of art and it is hard to actually use one for day-to-day needs.

Get a Case pocketknife. Made in USA. (think some models may be made
overseas, but the main line is made here).....The USA knife is a
multi-lifetime knife. If it breaks, they will fix it free. I have my Dad's
Case and it's still working great !!! Got another one for a daily carry on
the place knife, and it's a mighty fine piece of work. They don't come cheap
either ............... you get what you pay for.
Bucks are made here also, but like Case, some lower lines are made in other
countries.
