Wel I have Three Craftsman Drills in froont of mt and the LiIon battery
on one says "MADE IN CHINA" The NiCad battery on another one says "MADE
IN CHINA". My little Hex shank tool driver says "MADE IN CHINA" as well
as the upscale 1/2" inch with the Laser Cross hair device and my 1/2"
Impact Driver also says "MADE IN CHINA"

That leads me to believe ALL their Tools could be made in China as well
