• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

KuKu is from Taiwan. I think he wanted to know where the factory is located.

Well, their factory in the US is in Wilsonville, OR. I e-mailed CRKT to find out the name and address of their factory over there.

In "OEM" work, where the company whose name is on the product hires another company to do some or all of the production work, neither company tells the general public.

Sometimes we can make an educated guess from looking at details, especially when the manufacturer produces product under its own name as well, and sometimes we can't. And one can't assume that all the parts of the knife were made under one roof, unless the company says they do it all themselves and they're proud if it. (Note - there's nothing wrong with farming out work to other vendors who can do it well.)

I drive right by CRKT's offices in Wilsonville on my way to the gym. Wilsonville is across the street from Sherwood, the street being I5. Anyway, it is just an ofice. They import everything.

They used to have everything made off shore. Some of the new models are US made.
 
CRKT got back to me in e-mail. They wouldn't disclose the location of their factory because they don't allow tours. Looks like you're out of luck!
