Re: Brand of tools?

I'm in the same boat as flashed, an assortment of new bought years ago when quality was good and a lot of used bought at garage sales, flea markets, swap meets and the like. I have a 40 yr. set of SK Wayne 1/4'' drive and 3/8'' drive sockets that are still going strong. Not sure if SK Wayne is still around, most likely been bought out for the name and sent overseas for the manufacturing.

I also do have some MAC, Bonney, Proto, Challenger, Craftsman, Snap-on, Stanley, Matco and a few others can't think of right now. Would much rather buy a used US made tool at a garage sale, flea market, swap meet than most of the cheap junk offered today.
