Suggestions on hand tool brands?

Recommended Posts

I have broken every Kobalt ratchet I have ever touched , they sit in the drawer looking like brand new now .

My favorite ratchet is ( believe it or not ) one I got at Auto Zone , it has a telescopic handle with detents and a collar that holds it to the desired length .

It simply will not break when used .

I have Kobalt ratchet-end box wrenches and they're holding up well .

The rest of my go-to tools are American made Craftsman .

we have a number of different brand ratchets - but most of our best / complete socket sets are SK (with SK ratchet)

 

SK ratchets are strong and durable - but kinda old school / clunky

 

however - they can be upgraded fairly easily with a SK DT kit that doubles the tooth count (and therefore reduces required arc / swing )
