      This is still made in China son. The fero rod is soft,that's an indication of "made in China" Pay 70$ for a 5$ Ferro rod, is the reason that Chinese, copy their product and sell it for far less. You can get a full box of Chinese ferro rods with 70$ keep some of them for personal use, sell the rest and make more than 70$ that Exotac asks for their Chinese rods.

    There's something to be said for softer ferro. I have several ferro's. The exotacs don't throw sparks they throw molten lead. I can start a tinder bundle with my firerod (the smaller one to this one) than I can with a 1/2" 8" Uberleben.

    I have bought some stuff made in China that is a copy of a more expensive product. I don't need to tell you that there's a reason why it's cheaper. Then again, most of my pocket knives are made in China, the EDC now is an $8.00 knife from HF and works great for what I use it for. My son bought a Benchmade and the quality is far more superior as well as the price.
