Is this Duro Indestro?

This socket looks like Duro Indestro, but I’ve never seen one with simple dots on either side of the size. Duro Indestro usually has stars or trapezoids. I’ve got six 1/2”-drive sockets with similar markings. Can you help me? Thanks so much!

^ yes. S-K. Duro-Indestro didn't have that mark.
No brand name on any of the pieces in that set.... just the dots on the sockets. Good example below:

The center punch marks have been an S-K indicator since the beginning. I found my first ones at an estate sale in 2017. I didn’t know they were S-K at the time IMG_2578.jpeg
Here are some in a slide top box set. IMG_1314.jpeg

Even the hex drive sockets had the dimples.IMG_5443.jpeg
The dimple tradition continued on even into the more modern tools.IMG_2965.jpegIMG_2966.jpeg

Thanks so much for all the info. I live in SE Wisconsin, so lots of SK tools show up here in thrift shops and rummage sales. Also random Snap-On pieces. My latest find was a Milwaukee Tool and Forge socket!
