12 pt. They ARE marked "Made in USA". Are they worth it?
Thanks.

If you need them it's a good deal.

No, not really, but I figured if the price is right, why the hell not. Just one of those things, I guess.

I bought one Metric and one SAE a couple years ago and tossed them in the pole barn. Saved me a mile or two of walking to the real tool box so far.

I like them. American made and high quality. I have the 1/4 sets in sae and metric. I use them for interior work so i can bring all my sizes in one neat tidy package.

The ratchets are so-so. The sockets are good. I've only had a few Craftsman sockets fail and they were exchanged no questions asked. At that price, it is a good deal.

If you can get past the double detent they are great. Personally I couldn't get past it as they always seemed to hang up on the second detent when pulling them off.

The ball on the ratchet sits between the detents...wtf are you doing with them?

I guess I'll pick up a few to keep in the cars, etc...Just figured the USA made stuff by them is getting scarce judging by what I see in the store.

is there a part number for these?

i'm not finding anything on the site.

Considering there is no tool company that makes its entire line in the U.S anymore i tend to agree...sadly

Pulling them off with greasy hands. I always had problems snagging the detent just inside the socket. I don't know if I got a bad batch or what but I hated them.
