How long did Felco have these mfg in Taiwan? There are a few 2011 dated rev. from "verified" Amazon purchasers who got product labeled made in Taiwan.

I bought mine here on Amazon a couple of months ago and they are clearly made in Sweden. Hope this helps

Mine were made in Switzerland. I'm not aware of a production run in any other country.

It's made in the territory known as Taiwan, per the proud "Made in Taiwan" statement on the attached Topeak cardboard. Topeak is a taiwanese corporation.

The line is no longer made in Taiwan but now made exclusively in the US and have been for most of 2013. The Taiwan made models are old stock that is still being sold (but no longer produced). So you chances of getting and American made model is good. There are many saying that because they are made in the US the price has gone up. But I have been watching this line since before they switched production and the prices (here on Amazon at least) have remained fairly the same. Shop around, you can get the newer model for about the same prices as the older models.

Hello! R. Miller. Just looked at the 6 or 7 Felco Pruners and Swiss Made is stamped on each one. I have a Felco 310 Snipper that is still in the package (for a gift) and the printed info says "FELCO, the world-leading manufacturer of professional pruning shears and cable cutters since 1945." I've been a gardener all my life and used several good brands of pruners but I've strictly used Felco since the '60's as they make gardening easier and I know they are the best. For further info: http//www.felco.ch Happy Gardening! J.R.

In response to your inquiry as to place of manufacture, I no longer have the shipping package but Taiwan is marked on the earpiece. Hope that helps you. John J.

Taiwan seems to be the place they are produced, but distributed out of Dallas, TX. Great question. Let me know if you discover anything important about this product. I have been using it for years and enjoy it.

Mine just arrived 03/08/14 and are MCC made in Taiwan. These are great discs. Some of the best I've ever had. I always have good performance with Verbatim no matter where they are made. Much better than recently produced Taiyo Yuden. I've never had a Verbatim media fail in over 18 years of cd-r burning and 11 years of dvd-r burning (I've had some coasters of UAE produced non-Datalifeplus Verbatim but I've also had Taiyo Yuden coasters but never a failure of disc that would burn). And I don't even store them in controlled environments. I have had some failures of Memorex media though. Verbatim is still the best in my opinion.

They are made in Taiwan with high carbon German steel. They are great knives. I've had mine for about 2 years and I wouldn't trade them for any other knives.

Made in Taiwan. There's nothing wrong with them being made in another first-world country.

Taiwan...I didn't know until I bought it....a little disappointed it's not made in U.S.A.....but a very good knife all the same.

As with so many products, country of origin is China. Unless there are major issues with origin, it is still a good product.

The ones I got were manufactured by Plastirun corporation at their facilities in Brentwood, NY. Seems others got ones from China. Apparently Amazon uses different manufacturers to fulfill these orders.

On the back of the tool next to the model and serial number it says made in Taiwan. I know some people are reluctant to buy foreign made assembled, or made products, but i have had this air hammer over 2 years now and not had a single issue with it.

Mine is clearly marked "made in China" but it seems to be very reliable, is built very solidly and works pretty much as expected. Almost every consumer electronic product retailing at under $1000 of Japanese design is now made in China or Korea. This is clearly a Tascam designed product, and hopefully, Tascam also oversees the quality assurance of the production line. They are , of course, putting their corporate reputation on the line. It's interesting that many people today see Japanese made products as a "gold standard". I'm old enough to remember when most Japanese export products were literally made out of metal recycled from soda and beer cans and were likely to fail in the first few minutes of operation, if they worked at all. Just wait a couple of years and there will be people wishing for Chinese manufactured electronic products, since most production will then be shifted to Iraq and Afghanistan. Anyway, China or Japan, it really shouldn't matter if the device works well (as long as you don't worry about it being made of lead, melamine and used Toyota accelerator pedal assemblies). :-)
