Anyone know who makes the new Klein ratchets? Same model number as the older ratchets from SK -65620
Thanks

I believe the new Klein ratchets and sockets are Taiwanese made. The reason I say this is I was looking for a replacement Klein extension to complete a set. Was going to buy it off Amazon and in comment/review section, guy had a pic of part and bag was clearly labeled made in Taiwan. Original Klein ratchets were SK made. Then Klein switched to Wright.

I am really into wright tools; how can you not love something that is made in your home state!:)(y)(y)(y)
SK are also ok, but alas now taken over by a Chinese company.

Yes, op that ratchet is made in Taiwan; nothing wrong with that. I guess the world is shrinking every day. I was reading about how Thorsen, got lost in the 1980's, shame, now it is happening much faster these days.

Looks identical to the Taiwan Ares 72 tooth ratchet (I have), down to the screw that holds the selector lever. They generally go for +- $25.
