Pretty much all the 8 oz.-ish flasks I've seen on Amazon are China made ("assembled in USA" if they have leather or some other decoration). On eBay many of the used "vintage" flasks are pewter. That means they may contain lead. Actually it could be from a different country say in Europe, S. America or India. Just don't want to support the Chinese bastards we're going to have to kill in a few years.
