AAMOF, I don't know where Bic lighters are manufactured ... so I tried to "google" it ... I did not find China among the manufacturing countries (but it was a quick look acrooss some info sheets...)
But I found out something else ...

Do you know BIc also makes kayaks ???
see this web site .
Could these be an answer for the "Survival Vehicle" thread ???? <img src="/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
