They are teak so at first we thought the Philippines buy the guy said no. So I assume it's China  He would not give me a straight answer. They have nose, belly and tail grommets stainless thru wire & VMC hooks. Look to be Krok swivels?? This guy does not have a clue he is just the importer.
You can see the industrial revolution beginning. In a few years what will be left here. |

unfrortunately I think your right. Only the niche markets will be left for American made products. Sadly I say this though.

They look good. It is scarey how cheap they can make stuff with fairly good quality. Granted they don't have the laws and regulations we have to abide to here. Any type of manufacturer in this country has to be a little worried that what they are producing can be done somewhere over the rainbow much cheaper. We still have them with quality but that gap will eventually shrink too once they find out exactly what we want.  |
