Recommendations/Reviews of Ginsu Chikara?

12-piece block set on sale for around $100.00. Consumer Reports (CR) gave it Best Buy but CR hardly mentions longevity in their reviews. Most products - even eventually crappy ones - work well new.

.

Adding to confusion:

Amazon claims "made in Japan." However, at this price point, pretty sure it's made in China.

.

Assistance appreciated.

    I just did a quick search and all reviews were between 4-5 star ratings. I think you are right though, all products are generally pretty good when they are brand new.

    I guess you should review their return policy regarding customer satisfaction and the period of time the warranty is for; 5,10 years, lifetime? I would think the better the warranty, the more the company/ manufacturer, stands behind the product.
