Yes I've had mine for several months and it's also made in China. Seems to be a quality tool and works well...no complaints here. There is a K in the serial number on mine, so that may be the one you're looking for.

It is commonly said that if a Makita tool has "Made in China" it must be an inferior tool. From what I have read and believe, even tools made in the Makita factory in China have to meet the same Makita standards as their other factories. Makita tools are produced all over the world. Japan, China, USA, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Germany and the UK. As for this cutoff saw, I own it and have used it to cut steel re-bar, metal tubing, pipe, etc. and it has served me well. I don't know for sure where it was manufactured, but I am not worried about it at all. The warranty is the same no matter where it was put together.

Not marked on Kit, but found this elsewhere: Most DeWalt power tools are now assembled in Mexico, China, or Taiwan from components manufactured in Mexico, China, Taiwan, the Czech Republic, Brazil, Korea, Japan, Thailand, or the USA. Before 1984, DeWalt power tools were manufactured in Canada, the USA, and the UK. In 1984, DeWalt's parent company acquired the woodworking and power tool assets of the German manufacturer ELU. After that acquisition, DeWalt routers and a few of their other power tools were manufactured at former ELU factories in Germany, Italy and Switzerland. Starting in roughly 2000, DeWalt gradually moved most of their power tool assembly plants to Mexico, China, and Taiwan. In April 2011, Stanley Black & Decker (DeWalt's current parent company) launched a line of hand tools under the DeWalt brand. Most of these hand tools are manufactured in China, Mexico, Taiwan or Thailand. A few hand tools (such as their retractable knife, tape measures and screwdrivers) are assembled in the USA from globally-sourced parts. As of January 2013, a few DeWalt power tools are still manufactured in Europe. The DWS520 track saw and certain compact SDS rotary hammers (e.g., D25313) are manufactured in the Czech Republic. The 3 HP DW625 plunge router is still manufactured in Italy.

The Milwaukee 6268-21 jig saw I purchased some years ago was made in the Czech Republic. It has been very reliable with no problems. J.D.

I'm not sure where it is made, but as a commercial General Contractor in California we cannot "legally" use gas powered saws indoors and this saw has been great. Very powerful. We use it almost exclusively for cutting concrete slabs abs have not had any regrets.

The tool I have does not have an identifier of where it was built. The manual was printed in Taiwan so I suspect that the tool was made in Taiwan.

I read it was originally designed in Canada and then out sourced to Asia when my DW788 was purchase in 2011. Not sure if that is still the case. You can call them at 1-800-4-DeWALT and inquire.

Made in Switzerland. I also have packs of Milwaukee Sawzall pruning blades which are a couple inches longer, also made in Switzerland so I suspect they're made by the same manufacturer.

No cannot say where this blade was manufactured. There are markings on the blade but there is nothing about it' country of manufacture

The label on the saw motor on my machine says "ASSEMBLED in USA".I can gather from that, that it probably was "MADE" someplace on planet earth but put together in the USA???Do yourself a huge favor and spring for the Makita A-90629 60 tooth blade.All I can add is that they have worked very well for me (both saw & blade) and I have absolutely no complaints with either of them.

I just checked the label on mine and it is made in China! BUT, I highly recommend this unit. I build Electric Guitars and use Hard Rock Maple for necks and many other hardwoods. Cuts like butter and the finish is smooth. Only issue is sniping but all manufacturers do that! Plus it has a fast speed rate. I had to thickness several, several lengths of Pine from 3/4" to 1/2". It produced a mountain of shavings and was quick The finish was way better than the way it came. The unit is heavy but I think that shows how well it is made.Guitarman

The blade says Taiwan. Whether it's made there in its entirety, or just the blade is anybody's guess. The quality is quite high, so I don't think China was involved at all.

Yes, china, but still well worth the price for me, working on small peices of hardwood.

Should be Taiwan. I have three other knives from them and they're all from Taiwan.

China, like everything else. The appear to be paying good production costs so that it relatively well made...you can get anything made anyway in China depending on what the US company is willing to pay. The problem is in Worx changed design where it does not, will not, cut close enough to warrant the effort to cut your lawn. Why cut your lawn if it looks like it still needs cutting when you're finished? And I keep getting questions from Worx owners who have battery issues.....so many that I would not buy a Worx battery powered mower even if it was spec'd to cut a required cut of 1" or 3/4" high like their older corded mowers used to cut. For Worx technology is on a backward spin and sooner or later their sales have got to reflect this. Give the consumer what he wants, what he needs, or he will look and buy elsewhere.
