so today i got an email from Stanley to take product research survey the entire survey was about axes, hatchets, mauls, etc.  but the one question that really took me by surprise was the made in us question, it basically said “would you be more inclined to buy a product that is made in the us?” so with this could we be seeing made in the us axes from Stanley or at least axes in general? what do y’all think would you buy one if it was priced right?

 

 

ps: i have never gotten an email from Stanley before this one so this could mean absolutely nothing

I don’t know then again I would take a Swiss made axe before one made in Canada or the States any day.

PRC made= probably not buying.

almost everything made in China is of poor quality I’m afraid. One funny example is that a customer of ours ordered a shower enclosure from China ( unknown to him lol ) and when it came and was installed it was only good enough for the smaller far eastern gentlemen not a 6ft 6in Englishman lol

Sadly, even stuff designed here is not really very appropriate for a 6’6″ guy…
