I'm getting that way in the wake of this COVID mess; which they are pretty much entirely responsible for. My old phone (NEC Terrain) was made in China by a Japanese company. My new Kyocera (DuraForce Pro II) is made in Japan by a Japanese firm, and was cheaper than an iPhone which is entirely made in China. Finding electronics these days not made in China is pretty tough. I have 5-6 Chinese made knives in my EDC rotation, and will probably trade them off as soon as the flea market can finally be held again. There's a long list of inexpensive (which by my standards is anything under $20) knives made in the Czech Republic, Italy, Japan, France, Spain, and even right here in the USA that perform great. The lightweight handle knives Schrade and Camillus made have no collector interest; but are among my favorite EDCs. I paid $15 for a used SP-3; and $30 shipped for a new Medium Sierra.carrmillus wrote: ↑Sun Apr 19, 2020 9:24 pm ......if I ever buy anything from china again, it will be by mistake!!!!............... .....................
Funny thing. Our new TV is made in Mexico--but BY A CHINESE COMPANY!!!! Irony in the simplest sense.
