Where was the knife made? Is it made in Japan?

Probably China, but WTF? It will cut your food. Excellet deal for a thin bladed knife if you take care of it..

I don't know. I bought this a while ago and don't have the box. Probably not.

Sorry but I know the company is owned by a Japanese Co, but a number of the knives (maybe most) are still made in the USA.

Mine was made in China, did not have the musashi symbol on it, though other reviewers found differently. I believe these are sourced from multiple forges. Regardless it came sharp and cuts pretty well. It is hand made and has a clear and real temper line.

Yeap, made in China. It's also Chinese steel based on the type. Overall, not that impressed, I've had better Chinese-made knives.

If what your asking is are they hand made, No. These are made by a company called Cold Steel most likely in a factory in China. If your looking to buy a Katana from Japan, It might be a hand made one and it would be in a more expensive range. Such as 2k - 5k US Dollars.

Not that I know of. From Kershaw's website "Kershaw knives are made in the United States of America, Japan, and China." Does it matter? Kershaw is good quality wherever it's made.

No the knife is made in China but it is a very high quality blade. I do not know of any knives at this price made in the USA.

Doesn't matter, they are superior in every way over anything you will in any dept store, WalMart, walgreens, etc. Marked as Made in Japan, I'm assuming these are made in Seki City. Seki City is a major knife and sharp implement industry specialized city. These clippers are quite inexpensive for something coming out of Seki City.

Don't know country of origin but as a damascus blade, perhaps, Japan. It is very similar with the Shun 8 inch chef knife, which I also own. It's slightly shorter than a Shun and lighter. The blade is sharp; remember to hone blade edge prior to cutting. I wanted to try a chef knife approx 40% less than a Shun. For the price wonderful knife. Also try a Zhen VG-10 or 3-ply knives.

All Fallkniven fixed blades are made by Ichiro Hattori in Seki Japan. All Fallkniven folders are made by Moki, also of Seki. They are manufactured completely in Japan. Originally Fallkniven fixed blades were made by Linder in Solingen Germany. Fallknivens are not made in Sweden as confirmed by founder and CEO Peter Hjortberger.

I'm not exactly sure but I believe they are made in China. The same company has higher end knives that are made in Japan. The important thing to remember is that it is a very high quality knife at a very affordable price. It will last long and hold an edge because it has high carbon steel. Most similarly priced knives will not have that.

The Original Pure Komachi knives were made in Japan, while the Pure Komachi 2 knives are made in china.

It does not say on the knife where it was made so I would guess it was made in the USA.

This specific model is made in China sadly. Although with that being said, I still really like the knife and this other comment is correct it is extremely well built.

Yes, it is made in Japan. It's terrific. We've had ours for a couple years now and don't know how we ever got along without it.

The knife is made in Taichung, Taiwan. I've had other knives made at spyderco vendors in the us and japan.... Taiwan made have been the best so far.
