Are all Striders still made in the USA?

Striders are pretty much the penultimate mall ninja blade.

The operators I know use pretty common production knives, or the occasional weird, custom hunting knife. By comparison, everyone I know who owns a Strider has lots of money, but has never served. Just my experience (having once been a serviceman with very little money).

But yes, all made in the shop in the US, no outsourcing.

Having once been an underpaid enlisted Marine, I can assure you I owned not one, but TWO Strider knives that I carried in Iraq.

Now, I own 4 Strider's, and have very little money. I don't own a lot of knives, but the few I do own, I know are among the best.

So, now you know me, a U.S. Marine, who has owned several Strider knives. You can no longer make that statement. Also, FWIW, more than one Marine has been issued a Strider blade. Most of Det 1 was issued SMFs and DB-Ls issued to them at one point. At least one Scout Sniper graduate from every class is gifted a MT Mod 10 "Sniper". That doesn't count what the Strider Crew have done for individual service members.

Perhaps you just didn't get around enough when you were in the service?



Also, as Folderguy pointed out, you shouldn't use big words unless you are sure you know what they mean. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/penultimate

OK, I'll bite. If Striders are the penultimate mall ninja knife, what in your opinion is the ultimate mall ninja blade???

Nobody but the ninjas know, because everybody else who's had any experience with them is dead.

The question was answered. Nothing left but childish trolling which will stop one way or another.
