No usa stamp Thorsen

[Tomg303]

Hey guys I found some non coo marked Thorsen wrenches. What is the coo on these wrenches?

More then likely imports. I'm pretty sure the thorsen of today and for sometime has nothing to do with the old USA company. From my understanding, thorsen shut down and a marketing company now has the rights to the name.

Well I grabbed them for cheap and they seem well made. Anyone have any experience with the import thorsen?

the sears outlets have had some china thorsen stuff, wrenches for sure, "satin" finish, maybe some sockets IIRC.. they were dirt cheap. looked better than HFs india wrenches though. no personal experience with them.

Northern Tool also carries some selected Thorsen made tools-I have not purchased any nor do I know the COO!

Keep in mind that even when Thorsen was made in the USA, it was a very low tier value brand and even on a good day, was just "OK". As mentioned previously, the brand now is just a marketing name and god only knows who or what quality the stuff is made to.

Not really a brand I would seek out.
