A couple years ago I bought my first snap on 1/4" ratchet which was a little t72. I love that little ratchet and how I can palm the entire thing.
Anyways last year I thought I would like. Little longer 1/4" ratchet to have more leverage on things when I need them in addition to my t72. It was around fall time and my driver had some special edition hard handle ratchets so I bought one. Well yesterday I got a used tf72 chrome flex rathet ungodly cheap. After using both I can't decide which one I like better. I'd like to sell one but can't decide which one I like more.
Maybe some others that have these can chime in.....and don't say "keep em both"!!

I thought used tools only got sold by a man's wife once he died?

If your going to sell one I would sell them both like the previous poster said , and buy the dual 80 locking 1/4" part no. THLX72.

Not the biggest fan of comfort grips anymore for the simple fact of how chewed up they get.

TF72. The other one is too long for close quarters. I have one and it's my go-to.

Keep both unless you are a tool polisher. Sometimes you will need the longer one, sometimes the shorter one.

Thing about the chrome T72 series is they're fine for tight access but wholly uncomfortable for a day to day 1/4" ratchet. The handles have all the girth of a pencil and are not comfortable at all to pull on. If you're going to use it as your primary 1/4" ratchet it really needs to be a comfort or hard handle. My 2 cents.
