Couple of thoughts. Back in 1965 I had a friend that bought a new Honda 50. I remember looking at the "Made in Japan" plate on the frame and giving him a hard time about it. His reply was "unfortunately they all come that way" Now all these years later "Made in Japan" is considered a good thing. Also, the Chinese can make nuclear devices so they can pretty much make anything they want to and in any quality. And finally don't bet on all your Snap On tools being made in the USA. They are making some product off shore, including China.
