I just ordered 12/2/2014 and mine is made in the USA.

What is the guarantee?

Limited lifetime warranty. If you accidentally break a kershaw folder they will replace it for $10. If it's a manufacturing defect it is replaced free of charge. It's really a great blade!

I have one of these. what tool do i use to tighten the little screws. i cannot find anything that fits.what should i get

I received an email from Kershaw warranty department which said "The majority of our knives require a Torx bit #6 and Torx bit #8 to fit into the head of the screws. The Torx #6 fits the pocket clip screws, handle screws, and safety lock screws on all of our current model Kershaw knives. The Torx #8 fits into the pivot screw. Some of our larger Zero Tolerance models require Torx #6, Torx #8 and Torx #10 to dismantle the knife. You have the option of adding blue Loctite to the threads of the handle, pocket clip and pivot screws to ensure a tight fit. Loctite can also be purchased at any hardware store. Allow the knife to dry for 24 hours before using again. " Hope this info helps you out.

What/where is the device that is the assisted opener? Is it a "flipper" operated with the index finger?

Yes, on the backside (non-opening) side of the knife, there is a cutout where you can push on the base of the blade to start it moving to the open position. At that point, the blade will fling to the open position assisted by a torsion bar in the handle of the knife. Kershaw has a nice demo video on YouTube as well as their website.
