Smith Torches

Another USA product took the plunge. I looked at the newest Smith packaging on torches and even cutting tips. " Made in China " ... Too bad.

Victor has done the same but have not released their new China made Victor lineup. ( I got a peek at it ) CA2460 and 315 Handle no longer exist. Nor do the 450 regulators. The new Victor has a flip handle and looks like a cheaper version of a Purox.

Do they still cost $600.00 made in china? I bought a Uniweld cutting torch 2 years ago and that said USA made, think it's made in Florida. Still haven't got use to the finger lever, wish I bought one with a thumb lever on top.

Pricing has not been released yet. I'm curious too. Now we are down to only 3 USA torch manufacturers.

I thought Smith had been rebranded as Miller.

Still says Smith on the torch and regs and Literature
but yes in a Miller box.

Someone should send President Donald a tweet about this and he'll get right on it, better hurry before he gets impeached, and I dont give a rat's donkey about his taxes, no the Russians didn't make say that.
What are the otter two manufactures of USA torches?
