    The best adjustable wrench

    Rebranded Gray. I have used lots of different adjustables, these are the best in my opinion. The jaws are not sloppy.

    Knipex Pliers Wrench

    I have the 8". Must say I still prefer a 'good' adjustable wrench. I find that a lot more dexterity is needed to use these than an adjustable or the proper size wrench. They are a great conversation piece with co-workers. The price to get one in Canada is near criminal. Lowes here in New...

    Robertson Screwdrivers??????

    Lorddiesel I also have those drivers from the 90's, I still have them and use them daily, just the robby's. In the 90's those were the first CT robby's that I did not need to return to CT for exchange. I have not seen that style handle at my local CT in years, I do hope that it is back.

    Snap-on old vs new - Screwdrivers

    Here we go again, another person who cannot decide for themselves what kind of screwdriver to use, IMO just buy a set of every single screwdriver brand suggested here and on countless other threads, and get out there and make money with them

    Grip On Obsession

    My set of Grip On pliers are grey in color and branded New Holland. Got them at a New Holland dealership at a good deal. The New Holland name has rubbed off. They are good locking pliers.
