An open count of where tools come from
TEKTON publishes its own origin breakdown. Its About page says about 82% of its lineup is made in Taiwan, 12% in the United States, 2% in Canada and 3.5% in Germany, with the last 0.5% coming from Sweden, Poland and Slovakia.
In its own Grand Rapids facilities, TEKTON says it cuts, engraves and polishes steel, molds plastic, and does finishing and assembly. Every product page on its site lists the country of origin in the Specifications section, and the company says that when it calls a tool made in the United States, all of the manufacturing takes place in the United States.
What to buy for US origin
The US-made share includes handled and mini pry bars, punches, chisels, dead blow hammers, socket and wrench organizers, and some pliers and wrenches. The 6-piece angled-end handled pry bar set, part LSQ96505, is one of them, and its listing says Made in USA.
Most TEKTON sockets, ratchets and wrench sets are made in Taiwan, and its rolling tool cabinets come from Canada. Look at the Specifications line on each tool before buying.
