new Buck 302 and 306

Hoyt Buck produced the first Buck Knife in 1902. Hoyt and his son Al moved to San Diego and set up shop as H.H. Buck & Son in 1947. Al Buck revolutionized the knife industry in 1964 with the infamous Model 110 Folding Hunter. The company's innovative history and attention to quality have made for many great collectible knives.

The new Buck 302 and 306 are made in USA, right? Knife Center's website shows them
with USA tang stamps but states they are 'crafted' in USA and is the specs says made in
China.

Hi,

The "Made in China" in the Knife Center specification appears to be a mistake. The Buck 2011 catalog shows all the 302"s and 306's as made in the USA.

I just saw that they updated the website to say made in USA. I hope they start selling these knives in
Wally World and the sporting goods stores instead of or at least next to their Chinese make knives. They
are pretty reasonable.
