Those are some nice looking t-handles. They'd look really good in my shop, in a handmade hardwood rack that I'd build to hold them.

I use hex key wrenches every day in my job as a maintenance machinist. I currently have Bondhus wrenches and the only complaint I have about them is the size of the handles. Your T-handle wrenches appear to have the same size handles throughout the size range and that to me is a huge plus. I will seek out your wrenches to see how they look and feel in my hand. Thanks for the chance to see your products. Nice web site too.

I visited your site last week, linked off the Danaher brands page, nice site.

You should make that set with ball ends, and I hope I win.

Free tools, I'm game!

As to the COO question...see the About Us section of their website...

"About Us: The history of the Allen Manufacturing Company and the rise of the world famous "Allen Wrench".

In 1910, William G. Allen patented a cold drawing process for making hex socket set screws, pictured in the advertisement (right). These safety screws avoided the typical square head protrusion that was common of fasteners at that time. With this new design, a worker's clothing was much less likely to get caught on machinery and cause an accident.

The revolutionary "ALLEN SAFETY SET SCREW" demanded a quality tool for turning the fastener. Hence, the Allen hex wrench was born in Hartford, Connecticut, USA. There have been many improvements to the tool over the years, resulting in the assortment of product you find in this store. We continue to manufacture William Allen's wrench in our facilities around the world, including Dallas, Texas, USA and Shanghai, China. The Allen(R) brand and products are owned and manufactured by us, Apex Tool Group, LLC, headquartered in Sparks, Maryland, USA"

That doesn't really answer my question. I would like to know if the set they're giving away are USA made or made in China or Taiwan, if they're imports I don't want them, garbage service isn't free out this way.

I hope for their sake, and ours, that they'd make sure to send US made tools to the winner.
