The only REAL tape is made in germany - it's called the Wetzlar-tape and
it is handcrafted in every respect. They also have a reliability control
there and EVERY piece is checked before it leaves the factory. It's alos
noteworthy that you should stay away from japanese copies, which never
give the same camouflage as the original brand. Good luck.
