Cornwell Sockets

[Wamsutta]

You guys got any pictures of Cornwell sockets that have been made within the last 20 years? I'm curious what they look like.

They look like the same sockets made 20 years ago. No detents, just one hole and nice chrome.

Their Blue Power resemble generic Taiwanese sockets.

I have some impact sockets of theirs if you want me to take any pics of those.

Pretty sure that changed last year. Their 2018 and the new 2019 catalog specifically mentions that their chrome and impact sockets have "detents on all 4 sides". They've also added easy read laser etched numbers to their impacts.

Is that for their taiwanese blue power line or their true cornwell line?

All Ive seen on the cornwell truck for the last year is the same old cornwell design.

For their own line.

I have a full set of metric 3/8 and 1/4 deep and shallow. They are amazing pieces of machine work but...

The markings are kinda hard to see especially if they get covered in oil or grease (I’m a heavy duty and equipment mechanic)
They are pretty expensive for what they are. Depending on what promos are going, on they may become worth their price.
The chrome is top notch. Some show wear after heavy use.
