When it's not exactly Made in the USA - Hoback

[G. Scott H.]

Do you have any idea how long it takes to make all those long distance calls using a rotary dial phone?

The handle is intact lol that's not the only knife I've had of Jake's either. Paratrooper has never owned a hoback. He's just here to argue over something he has never owned.

You still have this?

No they don’t… anyone that works for a global manufacturer knows this. An import declaration and a sticker on the box are NOT the same thing. The import declaration is the important document. Whether each knife says “made in China” is NOT… as others that own anything made by Reate for Pena will attest to.

I don't know the specifics of trade law, but I would imagine that if the knives came 10 or 20 or 60 to the box, and the box was labeled, "made in China...."

This is not accurate. Country of origin labeling is mandatory for all consumer goods imported and sold in the US.

Yes but individual products are not required to have stickers or anything.

I literally just explained it to you. Do you import goods from overseas? No? Then stay in your lane. Also, you moved the goalpost again. You went from “goods imported” to “items sold”. Of course you did. Also, when will you be suing Pena for not putting the COO on the box?

 

[Insipid Moniker]

Again, incorrect.

The label must be on the product or it's packaging.

They absolutely are.

Do you import goods from overseas?

Go tell that to Pena Knives. Don’t worry, I’ll wait.

I didn't realize Pena knives set the policies for US Customs and Border Patrol! That's quite a feather in their cap!

 

[King of the Cheese]

Do you import goods from overseas?

I bag groceries for a living, remember? Well, in between stints of unemployment. But on a serious note, I’m not discussing that with you, we can stick to the facts.

We’ll see, you’re mad about Hoback but Pena gets a pass? Interesting.

Yes sir, I shot it yesterday lol

I am in my lane. Checkout lane 5.

Has Pena ever misled anyone about his knives being made in China? Who has he lied to? And where did I say I wasn't mad? This is a bad attempt at false equivalence because you've revealed repeatedly that your claims are based purely on wishful thinking.

 

[King of the Cheese]

You get all your info from Google but you don’t know how the real world imports goods. I just told you I get Pena knives with no COO marking and your response is “but whatabout this website I found”.

Woah woah hold on there goalpost mobility specialist.. we are talking about “labeling of goods imported”… and last I checked, Pena knives are imported from China without any COO marking. Don’t start the mental gymnastics with me on “well Pena never lied, etc”. Stick to one point at a time.

And you apparently can't even be bothered to get your information from Google, as you've repeatedly simply made things up and spread blatantly false information in this thread.

Your response to me citing actual legal policy and precedent is to go, "What about this one other knife I bought?" as though that would prove anything about anything.
