Benchmade, homie. http://www.benchmade.com/Thanks for the share mate. Pretty pricey, but lifetime warranty and ridiculous quality. Not very many knife manufacturers use quality steel. I've got a model 557 that has a 154cm steel blade; nicest knife I have ever owned. |

I remember reading some place that companies use China as a manufacturer(one reason) because they're built to their specifications more precisely, and cheaper.
What else... lower wages + no social protection = cheaper production = +profit... Event thus now the economic leeches (AKA corporations) are changing their production to Vietnam where wages are even lower than China. Keep wearing with proud Nike, Puma, Adidas... and all other made in "where it gets cheaper to made" outfits and stuff (until our economies collapse with so many imported junk that is). Manufacturing outsource is another way to boost their income, lower cost and lesser tax or maybe 0 tax since it is outsource. Quality control personnel are present, yet the problem is how do you expect dedication and quality of work from them if their salary is low as well. |

I don't blame it on the workers, for 30 USD/mo in average that's exactly a "you get what you paid for". I blame it on the corps. which "boost their income" in such way. |

I've been rocking the same knife for about eight years, and before that I had another benchmade that I gave to a farmer in Nicaragua after he let me sleep on his porch for a few weeks. I swear by them. |

Yep, it's pretty hard to buy any electronics component - whether high or low quality - which hasn't intersected with Foxconn at some point during manufacture and the majority of their factories are in China. They may be the only company in the world which has suicide prevention nets at their factory. What a claim to fame. |
All I can say is that this is Bitcoin. I don't believe it until I see six confirmations.

It is you get what you pay for. If I buy something for a few dollars I don't exept it to last very long. Part of the blame might fall on those who order and desing, some stuff just isn't made to last to increase sales...

It is true that many products from China have poor quality, but almost all products from US are low quality.
I guess you are trolling but.... The US has made low quality products at times as Japan has as well. In the 70's Japanese stuff really started to improve. We really did say "cheap Japanese crap" back then. In the 90's it was considered the best and in my mind recently has started to pull back in quality. Same thing for Korean products. When the Hyundai accent came to America it was just one (big) notch ahead of the Yugo. It was junk. Now Hyundai makes some of the best cars (right here in the USA even). I currently can not think of many products that are US made that are of low quality. In the 80's many American cars really sucked, but by the mid late nineties that started to change. Today, American made cars are pretty close in quality to foreign cars, and in many cases the variances between models are greater then the variances between brands. |

One thing nobody has brought up is that pretty much everything is made in China.
High end, well built products from Dell, Apple, pretty much any tech product? All made in China, and all great quality. The problem is not the Chinese, they are perfectly capable of building fantastic stuff. The problem is when a company does not want the added expense of high quality production.
