But are all the pages the same color? I can't trust a company that doesn't have every page the same color. Who knows if they included the correct items and parts numbers if the pages aren't the same color!

Their old 2012 catalog also says L-1015 so I believe that is just their universal catalog part number :dunno:

It does says copyright 2015 on the back of current catalog so I guess technically it is a 2015 catalog but printed very late that year.

I downloaded a copy of a catalog but it has a different cover........must be last year's catalog.

Yes, it appears their website is still showing their old 2012 catalog. Just probably haven't gotten around to upload the new one yet.

but were there any defects in the wrapper? It's a sign of poor corporate culture if the wrapper isn't perfect. I can't trust a tool company that doesn't have the wrapper on the catalog perfect.

I just sent my request hopefully none of the corners are bent when I receive it. I don't want to deal with a company that allows that to happen.:D

You'll find that some of the pages inside are chromed and some might be painted - but don't worry, it's just because a few pages are NOS.

Ugh I hate the design of the catalog. Looks like someone with no idea how to use a catalog designed it. 6 sections instead of 12? Seriously who uses 6 sections in a catalog anymore. And really that font looks like them trying to get all "creative and unique". Cant imagine this company lasting much longer. If you want a real tool catalog just get the snap-on one!:lol_hitti

SK passed those catalogs out at their SEMA booth in November. New things I remember are the X Frame wrenches, the long breaker bars, locking impact extensions, and some updated tool sets. Hopefully as the X Frame wrench sets are distributed more widely, SK will release some new tools:dunno:

Darn missing chrome, Chinese paper, spot of rust, spec of dirt, letters not adjusted, what is the World coming to? Now I will have to dump all my SK tools in favor of Craftsman.:bowdown:

Oh Man such sweet goodness coming from them now that my wallet is empty:scared::rolleyes::eek:

Obviously some of you do not appreciate the fact that all of their tools are now being made in the USA. That fact alone is no easy task at all.

And to answer the question on COO of their catalog ...

we are joking about all the stupid ******** complaints tool polishers have on here (once in a great while they are legit complaints as happens w/any company).

The last time I looked at SK tools I thought they needed to add a quick release tear drop ratchet. Do they have any of them in the new catalog?

SK Eric,
One of your most important "tools" is not made in USA.
The SK ball cap!
