I agree with you Joe. I also have and use a lot of older C&C threads, some at least 30 years old. The last spool of C&C I purchased a few months ago was made in Mexico. The old spools were made in USA. The thread strength is about the same and next time I use some newer C&C I will see if there is a difference.
