Fluke test equipment made in China?

[davesparks]

Do you mean fluke knockoffs as such or “historically "?

I mean fluke copies

That's a genuine fluke destined for the Chinese market.

I nearly bought a fluke Chinese earth leakage detector, but I bought a European spec one.

Fluke don't allow knockoffs. They aggressively pursue anyone infringing on their style. They even tried to ban a shipment of multimeters being imported to the US because they were yellow.

They also sued FLIR over the thermal imaging camera.

When you think about it, the electrical test equipment is too small a market for counterfeit goods. Companies may copy and imitate certain styles and designs but they won't go and all out plagiarise the brand name.
