Are these knives still being made in Germany, or have they been out soursed to China?
The one i have is badly worn after 20 some years, and I'd like to replace it.

There are several on ebay. Looks like they are still made in Solingen.
Here is a link to a carbon steel one, there is some stainless ones on ebay as well.

Re: Mercator K55?
I bought a new one from World Knives a couple of years ago and it was German made. The people at World Knives are very helpful and if you wanted a new one, I'm sure they would confirm the country of origin if you asked them. [email protected]
