Not sure - I just read an article that United Cutlery Corp from Tennessee has the brands : Colt, Gil Hibben, Rigid & Harley Davidson.....

I'm still fairly new to this but learning.... am I on the mark on this or does someone with more knowledge & history have more accurate info?

I also read that United owned the name & was beginning to have them made in the USA before they had their recent financial problems. They had plans to take the name upmarket as their premium line of cutlery I believe. Newer knives were made with natural handle materials and the one's I saw were nice looking knives.
