Current production only? Not very many of them.

Older Leathermans, Older Gerbers, and SOG too. I am on the road right now and I can't remember specific models but I can check when I get home tonight if you want to get a list going.

Yeah, a list of current production USA made multitools would be nice.

Hello All,

Thanks to a California court case (which is being appealed to the US Supreme Court) no product with any non-USA- content can be labeled "USA".  Since mostfasteners (read screws) are made outside the US, this is utter BS as the assemley takes place here.  If you have your blades sharpened in Mexico or your saw made in Switzwerland regardless of whether most of the value added comes from the usa, YOU CAN'T MARK IT  USA.

Got to tell you, for those who have to continually explain this to big USA customers, this is a big pita.

Regards - Joe

-Gerber Diesel
-Bear MGC (now known as Bear and Son Cutlery) Bear Jaws

On most of the tools the only clue as the where production took place is to check the packaging or the company website. A master list could be quite a headache as companies are becoming less forthcoming with manufacturing/assembly locations. As it stands now I am fairly certain most of the big name companies produce most of their tools in the USA but that tends to change without notice. A current example of this is the movement of the production site of the Kershaw Carabiner Tool to China with no update given.
