Just my opinion...the Chinese may make good stuff, but I
never will (knowingly) buy any of it. Too many American
jobs have been lost to that damn country. Damn the cost,
Buy American!

Did you check the price ? Heck the Chinese is "good
stuff" but not a a
buck a throw . I'm just passing these on at the same 42
cents apiece
they cost me. Trying to help folks get a better deal
than they would get

at a *DECENT* hardware store. Let alone some backwoods
rain forest joint

:-( .

The hardware stores around here sell Chinese made 6mm
x 25mm stainless
 for about $1 per screw or a bit oveer $16 a set .The
sets I have are
 excellent industrial quality.
Crud plated are a LOT cheaper.

The key blanks are genuine OEM NIEMAN not Neuman .
