Mystery Torx sockets

[dwasifar]

I usually have a good memory for details, and typically I can remember where and when I purchased any tool. But these, I have no idea where they came from or how long I've had them, and it bothers me:



The rail doesn't match my others. I have no email record of buying anything like this from any online vendor. They have no branding, so pretty sure they didn't come from HF or a big box store. They just say Taiwan and the Torx size.

They don't look particularly high quality, but on the rare occasions I've used them, they've worked fine.

Scratching my head.

Seems like the kinda thing you pick out of the discount bin next to the checkout at the autoparts store. bunch of no stuff with orange price stickers.

Could they be tekton? Earily on tekton tools were produced with out branding. My crow foot wrenches come to mind.

in the UK the really cheap ones are from china direct like bergen / neilson / blue spot , the stuff thats made in taiwan is usally the stuff thats branded like blue point / teng tools / laser tools,

Looks like a set I bought from a small independent parts store, but mine are long Allen hex. Mounted on some weird rail, relatively unmarked.

Looks like one's I bought back around 2000 at an independent auto parts store. IIRC they were/are Performance Tool brand. They were half the price of the Lisle and the bit inserts longer which proved to be an advantage.
