The future could go either way.

I'm hoping it goes up.

Few months ago I ordered a another set of Matco impact sockets. I had the shallow and deep sets already in 3/8'' and 1/2'' drives, but wanted a set of 3/8'' drive semi-deep metrics. I was thrilled to see them roll-stamped U.S.A. as my others before had no COO on them, just said Matco. I don't know that the others were made elsewhere ( as the COO isn't on them ), but for the cost I always hoped they wasn't offshore. I feel better seeing the last order stamped USA.
