    Good Tools

    This has become my favorite wrench line.
    Auto self adjusting, and allows for ratcheting bite. Doesn't slip off. Super light. Won't bend. Feels great in hand.


    Not made in Asia.

    I don't think I have ever seen one of those. Where are they sold?

      KMS Tools in Edmonton carries Wera's full line.

      Love that place. Like princess auto but everything is high quality


      Kctoolco.com also. They gave nothing but high quality euro tooling like Wera, Knipex, Stahlwille, Geodore, etc

        I have a number of sets of Wera allen and torx wrenches. Every bit as good as Snap-on etc but less than half the price.

            I have found the Tekton brand on amazon to be very good for the price

              I like snap on or mac for lots of things but their combination wrenches are too narrow and when you really get yarding on them they seem to bite into my hands more than I like. Have their ratchets, and even after 30 years the 3/8ths is still going strong. 3/4" set has been ABUSED and we haven't broke anything on it yet.

              Chinese tools aren't even worth throwing in the jockey box of my truck...

                Sure seems to be so for lots of Made in PRC. How does that country operate? Unless we get sold JUNK, they keep good stuff! On purpose? Like a Virus?

                  I have the Wera joker wrenches in SAE and metric as well.
                  They can be finicky to get the open end on a nut or bolt head but once on they do NOT slip!!
                  The "ratchet" end is every bit as good as the gearwrench ratchet wrenches.
                  I only have up to 3/4 and 19mm.
                  These are very expensive compared to what you can get gearwrench sets for on sale or off amazon etc.
