Factory Gear Japan & Nepros Tools

[Guam711]

First Post! I recently had the opportunity to visit Factory Gear in Osaka Japan. It is known for stocking high end tools such as Snap On, KTC, Koken, Nepros and many more. I was specifically looking into picking up some Nepros tools.

Here is a photo of the storefront.


A shot of Nepros tools.


Nepros ratchets and sockets.


I did not take photos of the rest of the shop but on the other side of the rack in the last photo is the Snap On aisle. All tools are displayed in the open and can be held/tested.

What did you buy?

I work mainly on motorcycles so the Nepros 1/4"sq. ratchet set was a must.

Nepros NBR290L 1/4"sq. Long Handle 90 Tooth Ratchet


Nepros 1/4"sq. socket set & rail

Beautiful tools. I definitely want to get me some Nepros when I am in Japan.

There are some other tools that I did not take individual photos of in this case. (extensions, 3/8"sq. slide t-handle, KTC box end wrenches)
