I just bought a set for my father from Sears online. I got the package today and I open it up to examine the contents. The sockets come in a blow molded case but I don't see Lisle written ANYWHERE on them. Further more, I see the whole kit was made in Taiwan. I was under the impression that Lisle produces its product here in the USA?

Being that I cannot find Lisle stamped on anything in the package, I was wondering if anyone had the same set and if they have the Lisle product logo on the case or sockets? Every Lisle product I own has their name on it somewhere and is made in the USA. I want to make sure I did not get ripped off by Sears and was sold a cheap imitation set.

BTW this is the set I bought, except from Sears: http://www.thetoolwarehouse.net/shop/LIS-54920.html

I got the same set a little while ago. I as well was not happy that it was from Taiwan.

Same exact set I have. Lisle doesn't have their name anywhere on the product, which surprised me. I mean they look like they are built ok, I was just disappointed that they were not what I thought they would be.

Not to Hijack this thread....but you should have known better. If it's made in USA they put it in the ad in 6" letters.

READ the ad. With all the BS, great product, old company. lifetime warr/gar. IF IT IS MADE IN USA YOU WILL SEE IT!!!

My oil filter end cap set is unmarked also. In fact, I don't have any Lisle tools that have Lisle on the tool. It's only on the box label.
