yes, mine was made in seki japan and made out of VG10 steel the same steel used in most spydercos which are also made in seki. basically VG10 is similar to the D2 tool or ats34 steel used by benchmade

I don't recall, it kept falling apart, so now I only carry Cold Steel. And mostly the Rajah 1. Favorite daily carry knife ever!

The tiny mark on the blade says "Seki -Japan" which indicates the steel maker. I use a diamond plate for sharpening ... the factory edge sucketh so some work was required but the edge is much better now.

Mine was made in Japan but is a almost 5years old now. I hope manufacturing has not moved to China on the new stuff but a gander at a display unit at your local Lowe's will confirm. Their price is twice what you would pay online though but never hurts to look first.

The SOG knife was designed for, and issued to, covert Studies and Observations Group personnel during the Vietnam War. It was unmarked and supposedly untraceable to country of origin or manufacture in order to maintain plausible deniability of covert operators in the event of their death or capture. My SOG Seal Pup was made in Taiwan. I am very pleased with it!

I am not very sure, but the instruction is in Japanese. It seems like it's made in Japan.

Yes, it's been a while since I purchased mine but I remember it had the sticker on it. The fact that its made in Japan is great. Love mine!

Mine says "Made in Japan." Wonderful tool! Takes the place of a toolshed's population of this and that. Wouldn't be without mine!

I'm sure mine was made in Japan, do not know if they are made elsewhere now. Very 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 bag seems silent to it. Made in the USA.. there is a box with a big K and ORC or OFC in it... maybe that means something - I know gluen free producs have a special symbol. The company website is www.jfc.com, might check there. All that being said, its marketed for the Asian market, e.g. Japan. I would guess that means they wouldn't mess around with the product being GMO and GE if Japan doesn't allow it. I am sure that isn't a good enough answer but its what I have.

The used to be made in the USA, but after a quick web search, the Burris site is down, it looks like they are made in Japan...

Sorry, I no longer have the item and I'm not sure if it was made in Japan. It didn't keep my drinks cold.

There are no markings on the multi-tool that I have been able to find. According to SOG's website they are assembled in the US. SOG labels their knives by "Made in ________ ." The multi-tool is the only exception. There is a good possibility it is American made. The only way to be certain is to contact SOG directly.

I did not check it. It looks like from Japan. Anyway the quality is good enough for me

Yes. SOG was founded in California and now headquartered in Washington state. The company was founded in 1986 by Spencer and Gloria Frazer and was inspired in its choice of name by the Joint Services Special Operations unit known as the Military Assistance Command, Vietnam Studies and Observations Group (MACV-SOG) who developed their own knife during the War in Vietnam.

I think the box said "made in Japan" but I'm not sure. If I find the box, I'll post again.

Yes it was made in Japan, but when it was shipped we didn't,use right away but when we did the glass liner was cracked ant the thermal was useless, we tried getting credit from Amazon and the maker but we're told ----out of luck because we didn't,t have the paper work. So check it when you get it.

Yes, it has "Japan" printed on the side of the pencil on the metal clip, and says "made in Japan" on the box [which is printed mostly in Japanese] Hope that helps,
