    Hi. Finally dream came true - I've got RIDGID Peddinghaus Vises Matador 120mm. Made in Germany. They have interesting mechanism for adjusting play caused by wear. I'm happy. But I must say that I expected better quality. Jaws are not perfectly parallel. 0.15 mm gap on the right side. Bottom ways...

    Hi. Back to Gedore Xline. I was wrong, I've found out that it's knock off. The packing says: "...for Apple Macbook,..., Iphone,...". And I thought that Gedore wouldn't put any third party trade marks on their packing. So this would be heads up: beware of suspicious looking Gedore tools.

    Wow! What do you use it for? Are they really essential for some kind of jobs? Recently bought Gedore Xline screwdriver set just because I need precision screwdrivers. Quality should be better for sure. Original Taiwanese sets have equal or better quality. No COO, no any information about this...

    Some more of recent purchases: These are cheap series I guess. But anyway I'm not very happy with their design. Jaws could be longer and thiner. The bigger one even has manufacturing defect. The screw has a dent, so it gets stuck while rotating. Knipex: And something different - Mitutoyo...

    Hi. Here is another variation of Wera 8001 from Wuerth. I don't have Wera but this Wuerth works good and I'm happy to have it. I'd like to have more holes for bits, though. Sixth photo shows 24mm but actually hight is 25 mm.

    Hi. Sorry for my rant. But I'm 100% sure that the real origin of Storm measuring tools is China. It is evident. Just look at the pictures, you'll see typical chinese style. Those who stuck "Made in Italy" are very bad. Shame on them.

    Hi! Got some recently old version PB Swiss screwdrivers Slotted Actually, I'm doubt that rounded corners is good idea. It looks neat but when you try to screw something tough, you better have as much surface as possible. These rounded corners reduces effective surface. In theory.:confused...

    Hi! Here are my my recent purchases. Wera Zyklop set and KSK - Japanese crimping pliers with cutting jaws. Wera is good, confirmed all my expectations. I hope some day:confused: I will try KSK in applications it's designed for.

    Hi, everyone! In addition to my simple hammers I've got set of hammers for precise work - MicroPro. Also made by O.H.Industrial co., LTD in Japan. Handles don't have any coating and this is not good at all. Without coating they will turn black very soon.:(
