The full polished Craftsman reversible and the Armstrong version are both made in the USA.
Not all of Matco's ratcheting wrenches have USA stamped on them.

I think Sata is more than a distribution company. Danaher states on their webiste that they have manufacturing capability in the US, Taiwan , and China. All of those Gearwrench tools made in the PRC have to come from a Danaher owned factory, I'm thinking Sata. I might be wrong but, I can see sata making tools for the Danaher line.

Not sure what you mean by that... There are several Danaher Tool Group factories that support SATA in the same way we support MATCO, Armstrong, etc.
I would not consider them just a distribution company.

I had a 13mm pro swing. Box ring broke, send it in, matco sent me a bent pro swing. My new wrench is worse than the old one! The craftsman pro resemblance is uncanny I think, but the Matcos are longer than the craftsman ratcheting combos and they have the opti torque open end feature.
I'd take it to the Matco man for replacement.
I will in time. I got his info from Matco. Its hard enough chasing the truck in a car - I ride my bike to work!
call him. In this economy I would want to meet any and all prospective customers. Especially if they came to me.
In this economy, I can't afford to be a customer
He doesn't know that.
