Suggest that this thread get back to the original poster's question: what brands offer a student discount?

Here's my contribution... While speaking the Mac Tools representative who administers the tool program on a national level (a woman whose name eludes me), I inquired about Proto tools and yes, these are available through the student program. Don't know what discount but assume 50% like Mac.

So, what other companies offer a student discount? Speciality companies in particular. I'm about to finish my technical education in May, and want to squeeze a few more orders in.

Through Mac I have ordered KD and Gearwrench tools with my student discount. Macs SD is THE BEST, they can get you anything, NO ********, 50% off anything.

Do you mean that through Matco you have ordered KD and gearwrench? Matco, KD and GW are all owned by Danaher, so that would make more sense.

What about the smaller tool companies? Does anyone know of discounts other than Danaher, Stanley/Mac, and Snap-on? Surely there are a few out there.

No, I said MAC. The dealers have all sorts of different catalogs for all the different brands on the trucks, they can get you just about anything. I believe Gearwrench has a student program somewhere.

Most likely I have one the best of brand is Ford - the nature of product by made in USA. Considering monthly, weekly or even daily reviews about new models or updates. Usually, people delight in buying or collecting Apple, Lewis or Smart. Thank for your thoughts!

Tekton 30%

Probably the best deal out there if you want 1/2” drive chrome sockets. Many people think they are unnecessary but many sockets are unnecessary until the one job where that is the only socket that will ft where you need it.

Just set our students up on the Snap-on SEP program (Student Education Program), The SO industrial rep told me they could buy a single socket if they wanted or up to $10,700 total. They get 50-55% off, is what I was told.
