I luv those x frames, but I'm waiting for the flex model before pulling the trigger. I recently replaced my original set of GW flexi's with a new set and they aren't nearly as nice as the old ones. It's funny cause they appear to be identical but there are minor differences that make them not as comfortable and they don't perform as good either. I'm rather disappointed. I'm looking forwards to your take on these SK's even if they aren't the x frame.

I just scored 10mm x frame for $18.84 at local hardware store. I have 10,12,13,14,15mm and 1/2,9/16 in x frame. I think the x frames will be nice to use on socket adapters. For example the 10mm on the 1/4 adapter. Then you will have a wrench/ socket combo with only 1.7 degrees swing.

Those G Pros were pretty sweet. They were made by Kabo in Taiwan. The only issue with them and the longer locking models is that the button sticks out from the side and it's easy to hit it unlocking the wrench while you're using it. Other than that that, they have nice chrome and a crisp ratcheting action.

A lock is handy. I have gearwrench ones and they flop around a lot. Only use them if it's the only way to tackle a problem.

I have the sk pro o* straight ratcheting wrenches. Been happy with them. Just used one today on a ball joint press while changing out some u-joints.
