Gerbers are made in the USA?

Gerber has always had a line of knives made right here in the U.S.
The LST line is made here, as is the Gator line. They are actually pretty decent knives for the price. I worked at a machine shop and a lot of the non-knife people used the little LST's as they were economicly ppriced and rugged as all heck. The larger gator line is a good knife with solid lockup and decent blade steel. Not great, but pretty decent. Has a lifetime warentee on them.

The Freeman line comes from overseas and here. The S30V version fb - wood and, like mine, stag handled, are US-made, as is reportedly the sheath that comes with them. The blister/clamshell packed regular Freeman fb is from Taiwan, I think. The LMFII is from here, as well.
I like Buck's way - they list similar 370/380 and 300 models in their catalog and on their website - the 300 series bear an American flag - easy way to tell birthplace.

The Gerber Gator II which I own is made in Portland, Oregon. The lockup is very solid but very hard to disengage.
