CORNWELL USA
Made in China............
Made in China............
As far as wrenches, sockets, hammers, screwdrivers, pry bars, and ratchets, I'm told they're still made in Ohio.
Ohio is crappy and all, but it's still in America.

I guess I should have held my fingers, the last few things I saw from them was China.

Specialty stuff? 'Cause that's pretty much par for the course on every truck now.

Had a conversation with a Customer Service rep on Monday. I needed a spring,detent ball and c-clip for an SR-50 1/2" drive ratchet.
******* the other end of the line was pleasant,took my name and address and said she would talk/email someone in tech support to see if they could provide those parts. It kinda left me wondering if I was going to get the parts or not but today UPS delivered a complete rebuild kit for an SR-50 including the pieces I needed.Just finished putting the ratchet together and it's a good ,stout ratchet again.

Ditto. I will admit I wonder how he's paying the bills but apparently he is.

I wish I still had one. I like all the Cornwell stuff I bought. The ratchets are my favorite. I wish i would have bought a few more when i had the chance.

Cornwell is better then Mac and matco when it comes to USA. Also if you watch the sales flyers, almost everything they make them self in Ohio comes on sales at very good prices.

Says the guy from Illinois! Lol
Cornwell tools are made about 15 minute from where I work. Matco is about 20. And then Wright tools also about 15 min away.
That's okay, yesterday I saw an APEX tool truck.
I did not have time to get a pic. Looked like a Snap-On or Matco style truck, just labeled Apex.
I saw a Cornwell truck once, I don't remember which state I was in when I saw it.

Funny you should mention it...I saw my first Cornwell truck a few weeks ago. It looked like garbage - dirty, scratches...
Snap On trucks always seem better kept up.

Every Thursday is Cornwell day at our shop as it has been with Hank for over fifteen years, and we had two before him when he took over we have always had one. S=O, Matco and Mac all Kaput like Tupac for along time.

I see one every Friday morning around 10:00, its a very nice woman and her brother that run it. We get all the big name trucks except Mac, I've seen him around town but hes never stopped in. I have to say I am not a huge fan of Cornwell tools but they seem like they have some of the best customer service. I had the Jr72l nd a Jrf72 3/8 ratchets and was not super impressed by them.

Haven't seen a cornwell truck at my dealership in atleast 3 years.. probably for the better, he was not making many friends with inflated pricing and smashing new car inventory with his truck.. lol
