Most of them, er all of them bought in Philippines are chinese knock offs. If your inclined to buy real ones in the UK for your Filipina hunny, you might consider flying to the home land to stock up. It may be cost effective. The wierd thing is before I came to Asia, I had no idea the depth of cloning products. You can find every object you can think of in the local stores and public markets, some with made in U.S.A. or Germany stamped on the metal parts.
some are just cheap copies , and others I am convinced are grey or black market stuff made to spec in Asia on behalf of western bussiness concerns, and smuggled out the back door for sale in territories outside the jurisdiction of the "country of origin"
