    SK from amazon

    I asked in a previous thread about buying sk from Epstein's. How about amazon? Are they selling all new stock? I was told to avoid amazon due to them shipping you items that were returned or having a bunch of old stock.

    SK standard and long pattern

    Just bought a set of standard length sk wrenches. They seem much shorter than I was expecting. Are long patterns the way to go with sk?

    Getting socket sets shipped

    Anyone ever get socket sets shipped. Were the sockets all mixed in the box and scratched up? Want to order from Epstein's but don't want scratched up sockets from tumbling around from shipping.

    New SK tools

    Is tooltopia good for SK tools? I bought some socket sets from amazon and I think they are old stock. I did not realize they were coming from a third party seller.

    Have been reading some posts about off center engagement on wrenches. I just bought a set of nos sk raised panels circa 1990s. How do you tell if they have that suregrip design? When did sk start that design?

    SK cushion grip screwdrivers

    Has anyone been using the sk cushion grip screwdrivers? What's your opinion of them? I've been using Klein's but am looking at the sk's recently. I do like sk's wrenches and sockets, but I know the screwdrivers are made by western forge. After reading about some wf made craftsman's, it makes me...
