I saw this knife at Dick's Sports today. I was a little disapointed to see "Taiwan" stamped into the blade. I'm a new Buck owner (ATS-34 Buck Zipper) but I thought all Bucks were American made. Is this Diamondback of the same quality as the Buck's made here in the States?

I think SO !!! I have the Diamondback in both sizes and am very happy with them. The quality, to me, is there as it is in any other Buck production knife. I too, questioned the Taiwan blade and had it explained to me that strictly to allow Buck to compete in the market for these knives they outsourced the blades. The company that makes them must adhere to Buck's Quality standards and inspections. Of course, if it has the name Buck on it, you always have the Buck reputation of 100% customer satisfaction behind it as well.
 
Thanks, Gypsy. I might have to go have another look at it. I think it was the smaller version, but I'm not sure. Thanks again for the info.
