It's like a combo of a few things. The shallow ones with a magnet in them are handy for lag screws, not much else. Awesome when you have a lot of lag screws to install. The deeper ones are perfect for around the house jobs instead of a socket set: use a drill to assemble furniture, zip a hose...

19 piece set and only one 10mm!?!?

I worked in an engineering shop in Italy for a few months. They had several calendars from local Italian industrial supply companies. Each month had the front of a lady, then the next month had the back of the same lady. The calendars didn't feature many tools. 1 out of 5 stars. Would not...

It's still pretty new to me, but this Klien finger ratchet is ingenious and has been used a lot. It's as small other Micro ratchets but the finger loop makes it much higher torque and able to dangle it in small spots. It comes with a great set of stubby bits and an adapter for 1/4" sockets. It...

I was just at Meijer as well and checked one out. Seemed like a decent ratchet EXCEPT for the back drag. It was worse than the Stanley ratchet I'm replacing.

I was thinking I'd be picking up this one, it's one of their new ones, correct: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GH9Q233/?tag=atomicindus08-20

Double post....

Thanks guys. So the 90 tooth ratchets are the "new" style Tekton ratchets people talk about?

I'm seeing 2 styles. The butter knife handle has 72 teeth and the round handle has 90 teeth: Should I be looking at getting one over the other?

Awesome, love my SK tools!

You don't own a 1/4" ratchet???

I have bits in my kit, I was just looking to add a few sockets. This is the kit I'm adding the sockets to:

That's just it: a basic kit comes with way too many sockets for a portable tool kit. I have duplicates of a few sizes of sockets I've never used. For t this set I only want to carry what I use. This isn't a set for working on a car much, this is for the little stuff...

Got 9 of them on an 8" section of 10-24 threaded rod. Made a couple aluminum threaded end pieces and it fits great in my portable tool kit. Thanks guys! I went with: 1/4" 11/32" 3/8" 7/16" 1/2" 8mm 10mm 12mm 13mm

Only 1 metric?! I am becoming a huge 1/4" fan as well. The wrenches for so well in a pocket when working around the house and the lightweight tools seem to have a lot better feedback to them.
