I bought them to test them and see if I liked them, and I didn't. They were also on sale for like 40% off which was another reason. Ive bought enough Icon stuff to the point where I’m probably not going to buy any more. I did recently buy the 800 Lumen light on sale for like $25 bucks and its...

Thats probably the biggest things I hate about HF and Icon, the entire line of their pliers are just Snap-on and Knipex knockoffs. For their sockets they copy Snap-on style fonts and they to make them look similar Instead of establishing their own identity and possibly innovating on tools they...

I understand that, I've just never seen the coating come off that easily and that quick on a socket before.

Pretty much, I can get a full Proto shallow and deep set with 19 sockets each for like $300 ish. I haven't really been a fan of any of the Icon stuff either so I’m trying to phase some of it out.

Hi yall, I have what might seem like a dumb question but I’m not really sure on this. The first time I used the 12mm out of my Icon set, a bunch of the black coating came off. I know that its not much right now but this was after one bolt and the socket was slightly rubbing. Ive never seen this...

To be honest the only way I would buy a Pittsburgh set is for the sockets. I really dont like the wrenches and especially the pliers. I dont like the ratchets, allens, or screwdrivers. Only way Id buy one if those would be for a loaner kit.

I haven’t, but it seems like a nice place and the campus looks awesome. I wasnt planning on getting a storage unit. Im probably just gonna take the tools I want and put them in a bin then when I get there and assess the space I have buy a small box that would fit. I’d like to get the US General...

I was planning on most likely doing Military after. I tried to go Marine Corps straight out of High School but ended up having a injury so I was only at MCRD SD for like a month and a half. If I did go military probably gonna go Army.

Main reason I want to do a CJ or HS degree major is because if I ever wanted to do anything federal, certain jobs require or prefer those degrees. If I was just planning on doing something like local LE and nothing else I would probably not go to college at all but by doing that I can keep those...

Thanks, I try to keep everything organized, I hate it when one thing is in the wrong spot. I'm hopefully going to Liberty in Virginia, I live in Washington right now so it's literally the exact opposite of where I am right now haha. I'm wanting to do something Law Enforcement related so I'm...

Hi everyone, this summer/fall I’m hopefully going to be going to college and of course I’m wanting to take some of my tools with me. Right now I have quite a few tools for a diyer with only some of them being used semi-professionally. The college i’m wanting to go to is literally on the opposite...

Thats awesome, seems like the wheelin and dealin dealers are starting to go away. But glad to hear you have a good one. Ive paid in full with cash for every purchase ive made with my dealer, he hasnt offered me any deals other than what Snap-on says he has to have. He wont even come find me at...

It really stinks, my current guy is the only one for probably about 150 miles. I never got to deal with the guy before him but everyone says he was the best dealer out of any truck brand.

Updating as requested: Asked my Snap-on guy if he wanted to trade, told him the socket I had was worth more than the one I wanted . He asked where aI bought it and I told him online. Then he told me that he cant do that and “thats why you buy from me and not online.” Reason that I bought online...
