   According to 'StillMadeinUSA.com' Craftsman brand hand tools, made for   
   SEARS by Danaher Tool Group, are now a mix of USA-made and imported.   
   (Craftsman power tools are imported). Available from SEARS and KMart.

    TW> well   
      
   Danaher Tool Co. still makes Craftsman hand tools in the USofA. It seems   
   that not all Snap-on tools are made in the USA either...who cares, as long   
   as Craftsman and Snap-on still carry their lifetime replacement warranty.
