Is this Made in Germany? Also, does it have two metal ends? I was planning on using this to read EKG's, but it won't really work if one end is lead.

i'm not certain if this is made in Germany. this compass is made to hold lead(graphite) in one end, but one could replace the lead with another metal tip if desired.

This instrument comes with a metal and a lead. They are interchangeable. It's an excellent instrument.

Yes it is made in Germany and yes it has one end that is lead however it comes with a steel tip to put in the place of the lead tip so that it will have both tips steel.it also has some sort of adapter i have never used that seems to be adaptable to a variety of tips such as a crayon or marker.

Maybe you want German EKG Caliper as it is made with two sharp metal ends and it sounds like you are describing calipers.

It is made in Germany.One end is lead but it includes a metal tip that can replace the lead. That will give it two metal ends.

Hello, Yes, it is made in Germany, it has "Germany" engraved/stamper on the back of it. Yes, it has 2 metal ends. Only one comes pre-installed, but a second metal tip is included that can be installed on the other side for 2 metal tips, 1 on each side. I have no clue if it can help you read EKG's, but good luck. I absolutely love this product. It has amazing build quality and I am sure it will last you a lifetime. Hope this helps.

This one is made in Japan. I read in forums that there were (possible) knock-offs at a cheaper price made in China so I went with the reputable dealer to make sure I got the right station. Still love it, doing some delicate soldering that would have been impossible with my previous station.

I was surprised by your question and looked all over my double boiler for the "made in China" mark, but don't see it anywhere. I also googled it (as I'm sure you did as well) and can't find anything about lead content. So "no", I have no idea if it contains lead. If you find out, would appreciate you posting the answer.

Mine is made in China. I bought it to replace one that was German made from the 70's, also by WMF. The German made strainer was lost in a move and I remember that it was perhaps a tiny bit different. I have used the China-made strainer a lot and love it. In 2011 I was in Nurnberg, Germany at a kitchen and dining shop an saw a strainer made by WMF that was similar and cost €59! I don't believe that the country of manufacture is worth $75. Get the one made in China; it's just as good IMHO. Also, I believe that this was the top rated wok strainer by Cook's Illustrated and they are very good equipment testers. Mine is made in China.

Stamped on the bottom made in China. If that turns you off, I'm sorry. I had this model for many years and had to replace it after I dropped it for the maybe 10th time and couldn't get it to work again. Tried several from local stores and they were terrible. If you ever had this timer, you'll be happy to get it again at Amazon. My stores don't sell it.

The one I received was made in China, and it didn't work. I returned it, and cancelled the order.

Many electrical devices have such a warning if the device is made with lead or other heavy metals, even though it's only trace amounts as would be used in brass alloy or lead solder on electrical connections. No risk to the consumer.

no they are made in Germany and are great. Im in the industrial electrical field and they are way better than the ones I have purchased in the past. Would recommend to everyone else.

It's made in Germany. At least, that's what it says on mine. I don't know if they are all made there.

I installed this in my home a few months ago. it is made of metal. I don't know if it's made in China. Works just fine.

No, it's made in China. I'm very happy with it. I've used it regularly after a heart ablation procedure and it's been very reliable, accurate and easy to use.

I did not notice if the compass was made in China. And unfortunately, I no longer have it for inspection. I bought the compass as a gift and forwarded it on to my grandson in Germany. I can say that the compass has considerable weight, mostly from the solid metal base, and appeared to be well constructed and sturdy. The hinge action of the top section opened and closed with a solid feel (did not seem to be cheaply made). I had the impression that it would last a long time. Hope that helps.

Mine was made in Norway. I highly recommend this little gem! I have saved the cost of the instrument by running continuous testing instead of individual tests. Neighbors will love you.

The part that picks up your electrical signals is metal, the rest I guess is acrylic plastic I guess. Really looks nice and seems seemless. Love the scale. I have two of them.

Yes it's made in Germany that's why I was really disappointed that part broke off after a year ;( I was hoping since it's not from China it would be working well for years

I recall that this item said that it was made in Germany when I purchased it. I just checked and there is no country of origin stamped in the metal, so any label must have been removed.
