I got this beauty over the weekend. KR 637/657

All items are brand new and the prices include shipping (U.S.) and paypal fees. If you live outside of the U.S. please contact me for a shipping quote. I have several of the Facom sets available. 1) FACOM - 37 PIECE - METRIC SOCKET SET - 1/4" Video Demonstration: MSRP $150 - My...

@ amolaver Nepros fit and finish is superb and I think the best I have seen. It's almost a shame to get them dirty. :bowdown: Unfortunately, they updated their site and increased their prices. @ Skin The opportunity to compare the Facom to the Craftsman presented itself and I simply took...

@ Toolmaker Satin chrome finish? :headscrat Facom and Beta make some pretty shiny tools. Probably due to the poor light or poor photographer.

My next door neighbor just bought a new 1/4" Craftsman socket set. I took the opportunity to take some photos and compare it to my Facom ratchet and sockets. In the spirit of full disclosure, I am a big Facom fan and my opinion is very biased :). Here are some side by side shots. Ratchets...

Sunday bump

These sets are all brand new and the COO are as follows: Bit handle: France Ratchets: Italy Screwdriver bits: Taiwan Sockets/extensions: ??? Looking at the fit and finish I would say Italy The sets do not have a COO on them.

@ Cantause I got most of my sets from Primetools and other Ebay sellers based in the UK. Even with shipping it is still cheaper than most U.S. suppliers. The 44's I were purchased on Ebay as part of large lot someone was selling. I have no idea how old they are, but they were all new and...

Friday bump

@autobon 7 The Facom ratchets are as strong as any out there. Like Monte mentioned, their design is used by many other top brands (Hazet, Sk, etc). I seriously doubt they would put their name on a poor product. I own quite a few Facom and have been very pleased. I must confess that I am a...

The main difference is in design. I prefer the new Protwist because of the shape of the handle (you can ""rest" your thumb on the handle) and the color codes really help identify them. As far as material or quality they are very similar. The Protwist are still made in France, in case you...

@North Yes, the red dot is for the quick release. Only the 3/8" has the slimmer handle, but the 1/2" is exactly the same as the non-quick release. :headscrat

Well, here is my set up so far. It has taken me a few months to switch to a Facom set up (mostly) and still have a few modules on back order. Drawer #1 - Torque wrenches and "travel sets" Drawer #2 - screwdrivers (waiting for an order :() and long torx module Drawer #3 - 3/8", 1/2" set...

@ North I completely agree with Cantause's description of the Facom twist ratchet. I thought it was a little gimmicky at first, but it really is quite useful. It is quite bulky for a 3/8" and may not fit in really tight spots. It is made in Taiwan, unlike most Facom ratchets which are...
