    Snap On quality?

    It has a lot to do with removing USA from any tool supposedly made here. It means a lot to me at least but I suppose we can kill this thread now. I guess we are being conditioned to believe that it no longer matters. And I had no idea there were so many posts on this subject so I will be...

    Snap On quality?

    I don't know about you guys but to me Snap On's quality has slipped over the last ten years. No longer are the ratchets stamped USA and the plastics seem rather dollar-storish. My dealer's explanation was that overseas buyers would not purchase any USA stamped tools because of our reputation...

    Hello everyone

    I thought Snap On could do much better with the bling. You know instead use actual metal plating instead of the double sticky tape placards. The earlier anniversary series had bolted on placards. I really want a 70th anniv. KR1000 or KR1001. Ironically, I traded a KR1000 in on this beauty...
