Sept 5, 2008 UPDATE
I’ve located a business called ECO. East Coast Oneida. They sell on Ebay. I understand they do have the Oneida flatware “Made in USA”. However, when dealing with them be clear up front that you will accept nothing less than “Made in USA”.

These past couple of weeks I’ve been concentrating on Stainless Steel Flatware for Jamie. The research was long, tideous, and frustrating.
The long and the short of it is, two Oneida patterns are made in the USA. They are also made overseas. The patterns are Michaelangelo and Juilliard. They are both beautiful patterns. These two patterns are made in the US by a manufacturing company called Sherrill.
The problem is, where can these patterns be purchased where you are assured that they have been made by Sherrill Mfg? I intend to get an answer for this question.. Check back! In the mean time be sure to check the box for origin or call the department store to have them check before you shop.
Also, there seems to be a fair number of silversmiths still making sterling silver flatware in the US.
This weeks’ requests included where to find tennis shoes and Tea kettles made in the USA. Links are included. (more…)
My first request to find items not listed in the database came a few days ago. A gentleman was asking about tractor parts. He is going to refurbish his 1951 8N Ford tractor.
For the Outdoorsmen in your family, hunting and fishing items have been added to the Made by Yankees Quick Query database. You can find everything from lures, rods, reels, tents, specialty clothing, accessories for fishing, and accessories for rifles.
Give us a day or two to upload the database!
Also, if you are looking for a retailer who sells a lot of US made products, check out Bass Pro.
More items have been added to the Quick Query database
60 more Little Tikes toys
Greeting Card Companies
Holdup Suspender Company (Unique items!)
Pointer Brand Jeans (Check out the “Our people” page)
These will show up on Monday or Tuesday.
I’ve been requested to research more Made in USA hunting items. Those items will be added to the database in the next week or so.
Little Tikes graciously sent me another list of American made products. The new items will be listed early next week as well.
