GearWrench combination spanners

[SPtoolLover]

I have the opportunity to snap up a set of metric (8-22) and imperial (1/4"-1") GearWrench combination spanners for $99.95. I was wondering if they are quality units?

So yes as in get them or yes as in they are good quality?

Can you look at them before buying? Are you talking about their non ratcheting combination wrenches?

Here's my take, when Gearwrench combination wrenches were made in Taiwan, they were really good. Nice chrome, fit, feel, finish, and balance.
Then Gearwrench moved production to the PRC and quality dropped. Reports of bent wrenches, rough finish, off centered boxed ends, and other imperfections arose.

That seems like a great price though for the two sets.

I had a look today, and to be honest I think they were alright. I do know they have off centre box ends. Even the ratcheting wrenches have slight imperfections with that. But these didn't seem too bad, I just don't want them breaking on me!

I second looking at them first since quality control has gone done I believe a sure tell is look for Taiwan

I gave grown fond of the Carlyle line from Napa

I think I might buy these, $99.95 isn't too bad anyway!

All that matters is that you're happy with them. Like I said before, that's a great price for two sets

Enjoy your new wrenches!!

I have the metric set. Mine is the long pattern one. Made in Taiwan. Like mentioned earlier, very nice chrome, fit, finish, and feel.

Both!!!

And the price is right...
