I carry Cold Steel and Benchmade folding knives also, primarily because they are made in the USA. Neither make terribly expensive knives, and I think their quality is excellent for the price.
If any of them are made in China I've not seen them - and I've looked on the boxes to see where the knives I'm looking at are made. But I understand that each manufacturer has different lines with different pricepoints, and it could certainly be that some of the CS and Benchmade folders are Chinese in origin.
