    Have you tried Amazon - Germany? I’m not positive they offer AP products, but a quick search indicates it might be worth a look.

    Amazon Deals on New Retail Items - Post them!

    Since mini strike-cap pry bars with a pocket clip are a current topic: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01JBISOHW?tag=atomicindus08-20 I don’t have these (yet), but the price per unit is close to the Lisle. Two are magnetic end and three have striking caps. I have a lot of small pry bars, picks...

    Glad to hear it’s handy, as I’m patiently waiting on a back ordered one. Seems always a challenge for me to acquire KTC, so I’m curious where you order from?

    Tekton tin snips

    https://www.tekton.com/cutting/aviation-snips on the website…. $40 is for the set of three. That makes them $13.33 and a 10% credit. Even though that’s seems a fair price, they still must **** because there are no red hard handled screwdrivers being made.😂😉

    Auto mechs, how often do you use deep sockets? Would you miss them?

    Some interesting perspectives here, especially from the pro’s. I typically reach first for a shallow 6 point with mid-length being a close second. If I’m unsure of what will be needed, a rail of mid-length might be my first grab. I don’t usually grab long unless necessary. The real answer here...

    Harry J Epstein Day 2026

    Got my Epstein order. I didn’t do box art and failed to get a picture of all the items, but I did snap a picture of my BRAND NEW Plomb 1/2” breaker bar. The head had a little corrosion and wouldn’t pivot so I had little hope of the ball detents working well. A little spray of Rust Free and...

    Tekton tin snips

    They literally tell you the COO of EVERY SINGLE ITEM on their website. They also provide a link to all tools made in house and all tools made in USA. You are just simply not correct In your statements. Thanks to the OP for posting some new tool news on a tool forum.

    Tools from the old world

    Both the Heyco and Hazet came from KC Tool. I’ve not handled the Facom, but the Hazet ratchet is very heavy built. It’s rated by Hazet for almost 740 Ft/lbs torque, so they have quite a bit of confidence in it. I found it on sale, despite it being perpetually out of stock. The Heyco driver...

    Tools of Japan

    So, I get my shipping notice from a Harry Epstein order I placed this past weekend and notice I’ve placed an order for these: This was obviously me fat-********* something during the ordering process as I didn’t purposely order them. I’ll call this a pleasant surprise to myself, as I don’t...

    I’m GUESSING that Snap On won’t sell high-tooth count ratchets to Cat and the technicians at Cat are probably looking for more than 36 teeth, being it’s 2026 and all…

    I’m a fan of the Stahlwille ratchets. They are the main reason in going through the hassle of sorting through the Cat catalog and order process. Definitely an improvement over the low tooth Williams on offer at Cat.

    Picked up a few things from the Cat dealer. Sockets are 3/8” deep 6pt SAE. Cat ratchet next to my existing 3/8”Stahlwille:

    Coil spring compressor

    Reviving this older thread as I didn’t see this particular spring compressor listed: https://eibach.com/product/5.40260?srsltid=AfmBOopg-VasxR4SzQwiqayaUW0ovM88gv10RFZiTDk4WJvr7XSiZZ9m $200. Made in Taiwan. So far I’ve only used it to compress springs from a Polaris Ranger UTV, so they aren’t...
