I have a couple of the 1/4 and 3/8 ones and they are great I have never broke one.
they are the same as the Tone ratchets and I actually used the Tone 3/8 compact rebuild kit in the princess auto 1/4 ratchet to make a long, locking flex head 1/4 body 3/8 drive ratchet. check my post history for...
Yeah Tone is sneaky like that, everything is stamped Japan but never made in Japan. Like you said it doesn't matter because they are still coming out with an excellent quality product!
M12x1.75 GMC 2500 rear bumper bolt that rusted into the frame and snapped. Drilled though with a smaller bit no issue at all and then the larger bit got about 3/4 of the way though and bit into the bolt once most of the threads were cut out and pushed the rest out the back of the nut.
Amazing...
I love all the Tone ratchets, I have quite a few of them, would be nice if they were made in japan but still the quality is excellent and I use them daily!
