Title: Sunday's buy
Post by: lptools on July 22, 2019, 06:19:33 PM
Hello, I got a call from a friend who is starting to downsize. These are all USA brands, Penens, Herbrand, Craftsman ( a couple BE, a few =V= logos) , and None Better. The breaker bar is a Snap-on, and the long 1/4" extension is a Matco. The ratchet adapters are Herbrand, and a good amount of 8 point sockets. Also S-K at upper right. At top is a folding miter box, and toward the bottom is an M Klein & Sons close quarter hacksaw, and an M Klein & Sons Push Drill with a full set of bits. . I am guessing that the push drill is a North Bros.??, branded for Klein???  My favorite piece is the small screwdriver, which is a Dunlap Ratcheting Screwdriver. I will post 2 of the sockets in another forum. Regards, Lou

Those Craftsman speed handles look pretty decent. Most of the ones I find are badly pitted. looks like you did real good.

I agree with your assessment of those C-man speed wrenches.  I just sold a nice one, and then bought another. Should have kept the first one; it was sweet. 
This one looks like it was dipped in plastic chrome paint.  The flaking is embarrassing.
