is this USA made or China made Kershaw?

It is assembled in Oregon where Kershaw has a plant. I understand your question as referring to the steel used, which would be U.S. or Japan. Either one is a good product.

This is a U.S. made Kershaw. Never thought to check before I bought though. Certainly a good question to ask.

The blade has olean, ny stamped on it and the website says made in the usa. Either way it is an excellent knife and worth the $50+- that it cost. Wouldn't care if it came from u.s., china or mars.

On the bottom of the blade it says "Blade made in the USA". I can't speak about the plastic handle attached.

My 0279BKS-B Alpha Hunter is stamped Buck USA on the blade, and the box it came in is clearly marked, made in the U.S.A. JWM

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

Yes, I remember my son pulling the 'made in china' sticker off of it and making a comment about that! I went to the page where this knife is listed and it says "Origin: China". So yes, this absolutely IS made in China! Go back to the page and scroll down to the Product Details. It states it right there. I know my son LOVES his knife! We all want products made in the US, but China is actually known for making good knives. Hope this helps!! Good luck!

It says on the box that it is made in China. Does anyone in the U S make knives, other than custom, any more?

Nope says china on the box (well at least mine) however you are quite correct about the Schrade being American. There older much more collectible knives were/are US made. Ultimatesurvivaltips is and advertising channel for anyone dumb enough to send him a freebee to review. I also brought my SCHF9 after watching his review and now do not listen to one word he has to say. He doesn't even know the difference between "550 paracord" and the real miltary history of 550 paracord. Watch Josh James Kiwi Bushman for real advice.

Love all Ken Onion designed Kershaws but used to be made in the US with S30V steel and scalloped G10 handle for around $70 now made in China from chinese steel 8CR13MOV with a a stippled G10 handle. 8CR13MOV isn't the worst for $30 but if you want something other than a beat around/yard knife look elsewhere.

Well I do not have this knife with me right now. However I'm really sure it's not mad in USA. It is made in Taiwan. Even though it wad made overseas, Cold steel has a pretty good quality control on their product. I would suggest you buy a Kabar over this one though...

Yes, the knife is made in china. However, it is still a solid blade and served me well on my mist recent hunting trip. It can hold and edge and be useful in a number of situations. At this price, its definitely worth trying out.

China, but it is a good knife. Not many knives made in the US anymore. No one wants to pay the price for a knife made in the US. People want USA knives but want to pay the import price.

China is stamped right on the blade...but the steel is 4116 Krupp german stainless. It is an extremely sharp knife out of the box. It has not needed sharpening or had any problems since I bought it.. lightweight EDC...still recommended.

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.

Kershaw has done what almost all manufacturers have done, Their higher end knives are still made in the USA.But they also have an import series to compete with the low end.

It is made in the USA. Amazon is known to have errors in a number of their descriptions. And it is not easy to get them to change them even when you point out it is wrong. If in doubt, go to the manufacturer's page. This particular knife is not printed on the blade as being made in the USA like most of their other USA made knives are. Not sure why. Just the handle.

It is made in the USA, but not all Buck knives are made in the USA, one needs to check the packaging forthe American flag on the package.
