Why does the description say Made In USA but in the picture I can see "aiwan as in Taiwan?

The blade is definitely stamped with Taiwan. Maybe it is assembled in the United States but I doubt it.

There is a factory in the US, but they also have factories all over the world, so it would be hard for me to say whether this particular item was actually made here.

It said it was "Made in the USA". One of the reasons we chose to make the purchase.

On the knife itself, it says USA. On the box, it says the knife is made in the US, while the sheath is made in Taiwan. This is a high-quality knife, and if you're hesitant to make the purchase because of where it was made, I can understand, but this has quickly become my go-to knife for most light to moderate work in the woods, including skinning deer and wild hogs. Just checked the contents of the box, the TDI clip included was also made in Taiwan. Any other questions can be directed to me via this source, or to the website listed on the product information pamphlet included with the knife, info@ka-bar.com. Hope this helped.

I checked my example over carefully, and it does not have any identifying marks on it that I could find. It must have had them on the packaging, which is long gone. However, I would think an American made product would display that fact rather prominently so I tend to doubt it's made in the USA.

The steel cutter bar at bottom is stamped "Taiwan". Not sure if the rest is manufactured in USA or not. Label is in english and spanish. It is identical to one I have had for 60 years. Sharpened the cutter as soon as I got the tool and it has performed very well for last two months. I think it is as good as the old one.

From the bottom of the box, this is the way it reads: Made in TAIWAN for NORPRO Everett, WA 98203 USA

it says "MADE IN CHINA" on the box. as much as i like to buy american made things, i ordered this for my wife as a gift. she loves it ! as far as the measurements being off in the description...i didn't notice and wife hasn't said anything so i doubt if this matters much.

It clearly states in product details that it's made in China. Where did you get USA at?

Made in Taiwan. There's nothing wrong with them being made in another first-world country.

Bernard, I'm surprised you asked. Actually, I checked just to make sure. Carefully stamped on the bottom of the pot is the word "China". It still does a great job and maybe some day we will once again see "made in USA". But that is not today.

Bought mine about 10 days ago. It was made in China, not Taiwan. Bench tested OK.

It looks like the materials originate from the US but they do outsource manufacture, possibly to China. Not a big surprise.

This knife is now made in Taiwan. I also own an older model that is made in the USA. The quality of both knives is very good.

It does say China, I have two of these and they are absolutely awesome! I put one through some pretty tough use and still has a razor sharp edge. I would make sure the one you order has the secure-ex plastic sheath and not the nylon version as I have seen on a few older versions being sold occasionally. Taiwan is a province of China. I would make sure you order from Cold Steel themselves on Amazon to make sure you don't get a counterfeit.

Looks that way... The bottom of the pan says "USA Design - Handcrafted in China"
