Irish have a couple of Bahco in tools. Great quality, maybe owned by Snap On from memory. Swedish or Swiss. Could google but wont.

Originally from Sweden, part of Volvo concern. Now part of Snap On.
Today they can be made in where ever.
Mostly still high quality tools.

It says on it Made In Sweden, I'm not sure where the nail comes from.

A few of my Bahcos. Also rocker arms of old Volvos (petrol and diesel) are made by Bahco,
connecting rods and crank shafts by Bofors (owned by Alfred Nobel) and roller bearings by SKF (part of volvo concern).

I think chinese Geely owns Volvo. They just recently got record as fastest sedan and FWD at Nurburgring. My spelling maybe wrong.
