I think being made in the USA is luck of the draw on singles. sets are unlikely.

Check your local Ace hardware. I was in my local one getting their $15 Quick Grip deal and the had many NOS wrench sets that were American made. They even had two USA made torque wrenches and all their impact sockets were as well

Is there a complete combination wrench set? or its only individual because I notice these are made in US.

It looks like you are wanting metric wrenches. However, I think an 18 piece SAE Craftsman combination wrench set has every SAE wrench size available in the set.

Many years ago I purchased a set of SAE combination wrenches and my set was made in the USA.

Years ago the catalog had a 43 piece Craftsman combination wrench set with what might be every possible size of Craftsman wrenches in both SAE and metric sizes. Here's the current version of the set and it is a hot buy.

The set consists of 18 SAE measured sizes 1/4 thru 1-5/16-Inch; and 25 metric measured sizes 6 thru 28, 30 and 32mm, covering a wide span and making it a candidate for the last wrench set you ever buy.

At $119.99 plus tax with free shipping it might hit the spot if you don't mind it being an offshore version. What do you think?

On the Craftsman or Sears website, if you type in "Craftsman Professional Wrenches" there is a full set each SAE and MM, of U.S. made combos. They both have a black oxide finish and are stamped "CRAFTSMAN INDUSTRIAL". They come up and go away pretty regularly but if you check the site a few times daily, you can find them available.

No 1-3/16" ? Why do they skip that size?

You have a good question! Sometimes I have thought about calling a tool manufacturer and asking them about the 1-3/16" sockets. They seem to be a socket that doesn't get used other than filling in the gap in the socket tray inside a Craftsman 18" metal portable tool box. Why they make the 1-3/16" socket and no 1-3/16" wrench makes my mind wonder. Years ago I tried to locate a 1-3/16" wide fastener I could actually use the 1-3/16" socket on and I finally found one! Can you believe it? They actually have a 1-3/16" wide flange nut!

Good point. Ace does still seem to have some old stock laying around.
