Does anyone have these? Curious on the quality. I have a few Armstrong 1/4" impact sockets and they seem pretty good.

They will be the same as the USA Cman sockets, these should also have the goofy double detents.

If you look closely at the picture, it shows Allen sockets, their "companion" brand, not Armstrong. Maybe they're the same, but I know in wrenches there is a big quality difference between the two.

Which one is better quality? I'd assume Armstrong.

The Armstrong are basically equivalent to the older Craftsman Professional, which is a grade better finish/design than the Allen, even though both owned by Apex. Armstrong is super good stuff and this is a great deal. - Paul

I bought that same set a few months ago on eBay for $12

the picture (same picture on both sets) is also clearly a 3/8" drive SAE set... note the largest size being 13/16

someone at the site got lazy and just tossed in a random 10pc socket set photo

I've got their 1/2" drive sae set, and metric 3/8" good quality USA made tools, I'm taking advantage of this and grabbing both sets, too cheap to pass up, thanks Spn for posting this, didn't see the Apex thread listing this

They had the SAE sets on Woot.com a while back for $5.00 a got a couple and they were decent looking.

To be specific, the Craftsman INDUSTRIAL hand tools are made by Armstrong. These are NOT sold in Sears stores.

Craftsman never made professional sockets
