Full range of Wera stuff inc joker spanners, regular zyclops ratchets, allen keys, screwdrivers, nano bit ratchet sets.
Large range of Wiha screwdrivers, vde, inc torque screwdriver system, stubby and individuals..

Thanks for the heads up.

We have a Bunnings in town here, have to admit not visiting the tool section in a while.

Ill have to check them out up here

Just checked them out. My local stocks the joker spanners and sets. Also 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 inch ratchets. But not the zyclops, which is the one i would have bought.

On a side note i thought Wera was German made. But when i checked the lables, everything said made in Czech Republic.

That's awesome! Wish there were a major chain here in the US that carried those brands. We do have a couple stores that have Knipex, and you can find anything online, but it seems like most customers want cheap Chinese **** tools for the lowest price possible.

Mate it must be a world wide issue. Cause most stores will only carry one good brand, but not their entire selection. However everything else is straight out of china. Cause im in the trade, i get most of my tools from a tool truck that carries or at least can sorce most brands i chase at a fair price and if i find it cheaper, he will match it.
