Yes actually, some of their allen multi key has a all metal housing with USA stamp on them. We got a bunch of new Allen zt4000 torx keys multi holder recently from work. As they were less then the wiha we uses to get. They are us made.

I've noticed the newer, chinese stuff has a brighter green label, the older, US stuff is darker green.

All the stuff hanging on the shelf at my local hardware store is still USA. But the prices are so high they have been there for years.

Yes, but you have to look for them. 90% of the time, if the part # ends in "G", good chance its from overseas. I do have a set of their 1/2 metric sockets and although the chrome is not the best, they hold up well.

Imported as in China, or Taiwan?
