Has anyone bought these? I have looked at them in the store and think the could be useful. If anyone knows more let us know.

i can't think of a situation where i would need them. kind of a gimmick.

Are you talking about the ratcheting indexable boxed end combination wrenches? If so, I have a set. They are handy for stuff you can't get anything else on due to clearance like the upper rear shock nut on some crown vics. It's like an indexible ratchet and gearwrench combined. It gives you a push-pull action. Be forewarned though, despite the Craftsman name, they are made in China. Search the old posts, as there has been much knashing of teeth over these. Gearwrench makes a more complete set.

I was looking at these last night. I can think of a ton of scenarios to use them on a Honda. The set is really incomplete tho. Missing 12, 16, and 18 which I use in industrial settings.
