Peltor quit making earmuffs in Sweden around 10 years ago. Plus active earmuffs for a measly $50-60? No way. It says right on the packaging: made in China.

as far as i can tell, it must be an error on amazon's part. if it's made by fiskars, it should be made in finland. if it's made by gerber (which is owned by fiskars), then it can be made in china.mine says it was made in finland.i dunno if amazon takes the country of origin seriously sometimes.

No they are made in Scandinavia, specifically Denmark. VERY high quality, reflected somewhat in the price.

They're not made in Germany. I'm not sure of they're made in Korea or elsewhere.

I bought mine here on Amazon a couple of months ago and they are clearly made in Sweden. Hope this helps

They are made in China. It says that they are a design of IKEA Sweden but they are manufactured in China. They are very sturdy and well made. My child loves playing with them.

they are made in China/Taiwan. that said, they do a decent job. I've had no issues.

I bought 2 of these as gifts. I don't know where they're made, but I'd bet on China.

As with other reviews, mine says made in Finland, no mention of China. I imagine it might be engineered in Finland, perhaps the handle (a pretty damn indestructible plastic from my experience) or the sheath manufactured in China and then the entire axe is manufactured in Finland. This may upset some people, but there are few things we now use which are made in a single country from start to finish. Bottom line, if you want a great hatchet for a great price, buy this.

Mine is clearly marked "made in China" but it seems to be very reliable, is built very solidly and works pretty much as expected. Almost every consumer electronic product retailing at under $1000 of Japanese design is now made in China or Korea. This is clearly a Tascam designed product, and hopefully, Tascam also oversees the quality assurance of the production line. They are , of course, putting their corporate reputation on the line. It's interesting that many people today see Japanese made products as a "gold standard". I'm old enough to remember when most Japanese export products were literally made out of metal recycled from soda and beer cans and were likely to fail in the first few minutes of operation, if they worked at all. Just wait a couple of years and there will be people wishing for Chinese manufactured electronic products, since most production will then be shifted to Iraq and Afghanistan. Anyway, China or Japan, it really shouldn't matter if the device works well (as long as you don't worry about it being made of lead, melamine and used Toyota accelerator pedal assemblies). :-)

I bought it years ago and still have it and it says made in Sweden on the bottom and is still as great as the day I bought it!

Some are made in China. Others are made in Austria. It is really luck of the draw which one you get. However, the difference in sound quality should be negligible.

The label on my Fiskars lopper says "made in China," but I would not discount the quality of this product because of that. As with all manufactured products regardless of where they are made, the quality of the end product is a result of the design specifications, the materials used, the manufacturing specifications, the inspection processes throughout, and the final quality assurance inspections. The product I have is not made cheaply and has a lifelong warranty, made for Fiskars Brands, a company located in Madison, WI. The Fiskars corporate headquarters are located in Helsinki, Finland, where they originated in 1649.

The one I bought was made in China. I was surprised by the quality. I'm looking to buy a larger one.

The company may be based in Stockholm but the product details indicate the origin is China.

The plastic versions are made in Sweden according to the manufacturer's website. However they don't make the same claim for the titanium version and don't indicate where it's made. My personal plastic version also states "Made in Sweden" on the product.

It was originally made in Minnesota. However, Hasbro bought the company and now it is made in China, I think.
