I keep seeing the ads.
Tractor Supply looks just like the Craftsman.
What would I use it for?

Would be nice to carry on a motorcycle where space is a premium.
I am in the process of building up a motorcycle carry tool kit. I looked at the Dogbone. It is much bigger in real life than the picture. My 1/4" drive (breaker bar, no ratchet) with 8-17mm socket takes up less volume than the Dogbone. Besides, the head is big. Certainly not a tool to use in tight spaces. I have not tried it, but someone mentioned the tolerance is sloppy.

I'm also putting together a tool kit for my dual-sport, trying to make it as compact as possible. On the street bike I have saddle bags and can carry plenty. For the dual-sport I need enough to be able to change a flat, etc.
I stopped by Sears (actually Sears Essentials) today and looked at the dog bone wrench, big, loose and there is no lock to stop it from rotating, it has a couple of magnets on the beam, not to impressed.
Currently I have the stock tool kits (which I never opened), a multi-tool (see pic below) and carry some wrenches, sockets, tire spoons, allen wrench set and a flash light (things always break in the dark, always).

Cool tool; does Honda sell that tool separately?

It's not a Honda tool (I have it on my Yamaha), it's made by CruzTools, they have a variety of motorcycle tool kits. I picked mine up at a garage sale so I don't know much about them other than the tool I got seems pretty decent. Here are links to their website:

Sweet .. thanks!
