I "thought" this was made in the USA as it says on the label, but the booklet says it was printed in mexico.  The blade is cheap and says made in china.  From the look of it the casting has rough edges ground down on a grinder and poorly applied labels. If this was made in the USA then the poor quality control of China is rubbing off on US manufacturing.  Or else it was made by former UAW people from Detroit and Dearborn.  The blades advertised next to the item do not fit. Its not a 10mm arbor.  It is a 1/2 inch arbor.  And you have to attach the blade with the writing facing the inside as this is for a left hander.  Or else the saw blade will turn the wrong way. The $29 Chinese saw from sears seems better constructed.  In about six months harbor Freight will be selling these under their name for $39.
