I am more and more amazed at how many tools are now made in China.
It seems now that (from what I have seen) the entire Kobalt brand is made in China. It used to be you could tell the chinese tools with just a glance. Now they look pretty good until you get them home and they fall apart, break, etc.
What I have noticed it that
Channel Lock Branded Channel Locks are made in the USA
Crecent branded Crecent wrenches are made in the USA
For now it seems the trend might be the tool maker that is the namesake is most of the time still a USA made tool.
