Jerry, you might want to contact the company. I have a few Leeks, and was under the impression that if it says USA on the handle,
then it is made here...Did you buy your Leek new or used? If it was used, maybe they put it in the wrong box for shipping...

BTW I bought it off eBay.

That's what I want to believe so I just called Kershaw and the young lady that answered the phone said, "I can guarantee that all our Leeks are made here in the USA". We decided that either the knife was in a wrong box or the box was made in China. So, I'm going to take her at her word and say that Leek was made in the USA. Quite a bargain for $20. (It's not marked as a second or a blem)

Good deal, Jerry! I own 4 Leeks, one of which I just rebuilt after dropping it in the street in front of my house when taking out the trash. It was then run over multiple times, and stayed in the weather for about 10 days. I was able to rebuild it, and it functions perfectly.

Got in a new blue knife today. Robeson Mastercraft by Queen. I think this is called a fiddleback whittler, I know it’s a splitback spring whittler for sure. The blue jigged bone handles are beautiful on this one. The main blade has so much pressure on it that it is actually hard to close, which is the way it’s suppose to be on a splitback whittler so the blade doesn’t close on you. I really like the old school way this knife was made and fit and finish is excellent.
