    Tell me a story about SK

    I only ask because my only other experience besides my free 20mm shorty open end wrench (beautiful) is a set of 1/4 and 3/8 torx/hex and a set of metric box/open wrenches (yellow PVC roll) with pitted chrome and poor tolerances. Did I initially get into Sk in the bad years?
