Likely made of fine Chinese steel. Always look before you buy.

Ambu did you get a receipt for your shipping fees and a deleivery confirmation tracking number? If so you will hear back from SOG. You did once so I am sure they will take care of you. Patience is needed here I think. Sometimes it takes a few weeks even for us to get something done when we return knives back to our many different manufacturers.
"Chinese steel" doesn't automatically mean "poor quality" any more than "American steel" automatically means "high quality".

Some of, if not THE best machetes made! Relatively cheap too!From people who know, the very best machetes you can get are TRAMONTINA. They are made in South America where they use them as often as we use cell phones. No joking, check it out.
Good to see they took care of you, almost 3 years ago!
