I don't know. It's a good solid saw, though. I used it to make all the cut for a front end load I built and it work very well. Miter is accurate and it cuts very nicely. I did run though two blades, but I have no complaints at all about the quality or functionality of the saw.

Made in U.S.A. for this particular item, but lots of Makita tools are made in China, which are great tools!

Sorry, Ido not know the answer to this. I would suggest the person contact Makita directly through their web site.

Just checked with my husband, and this specific model is manufactured in Japan.

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.

Hi. Ours came from Japan, literally. Took 3 weeks to get. Two weeks later it broke while removing it from 12v socket. No warranty available for us.

Could the SELLER please respond? I understand it is a Japanese DESIGN, but WHERE is this sharpener actually MANUFACTURED? In particular, were is the CUTTING MECHANISM manufactured?

No the label on the saw states it was assembled by Makita USA in Georgia. It does not say where any individual parts may be manufactured.

No. Like many other manufacturers these days, Makita makes its gear in China, and has done for some time. To me, however, the country of manufacture is far less important than the quality control -- which appears to be very strict as it has always been since I started buying Makita gear in the 1960s. jjj

I don't know for sure, but I assume it's manufactured in Japan. Hope this helps, it's a very good lens.

I know the company its being imported from which is Century in Tokyo. The home company web site is http://www.century.co.jp/ and the have an English language version if you click that link on the home page. The reason I know is that the sales rep working with the USA company importing it is an old friend and told me about it. As to whether they make in in Japan, I don't know for certain but I bought a unit myself and was impressed with the quality. It seemed like what I would expect from a Japanese electronics product.

It stated they have japanese seals. I did not check where it was made but I can say they work pretty well and seemed very sturdy and also have lifetime warranty. Dont be sfraid to buy.

To the best of my knowledge, most Makita power tools sold on the U.S. are assembled in Buford, GA. All parts are manufactured in Japan as well as Europe (Germany). I personally feel that they are still a very high quality product as many of my Makita power tools are pushing 10-15 years old. My newest addition was the Lithium impact driver and drill combo over five years ago. Awesome tools

It is my understanding the machine is made in China and the blade is made in Japan.
