Made in China????

The Remington Corporation and the knives that they built have influenced the U.S. cutlery industry more than nearly any other manufacturer. From the time America was settled, to the end of WWI, American knife companies struggled to compete with Britain and German imports, but events that occurred during and after the First World War led to a great change in this phenomenon. Unprecedented opportunities arose, and Remington stepped up to seize the moment. In the process, they created some of today's most prized collectables. In an ironic twist, the next World War played the greatest role in ending the company’s domination of the industry.

Made in China????

Post by ken6 »

I ordered a Large Wittler RE 17547 for $28.99 and when I got it I see it was made in China.

I was disappointed. I paid 28.99 for a Chinese knife.

Are all the new Remington knives made in China??
