Tekton USA crowfoot wrenches

[lardy1]

I see they have the sets, the specs and the prices up on their website. They aren't available yet but you can browse.

Sure wish I'd waited for these. Mine have a deep Taiwan stamp in 'em.
Of course, you don't wait for something you don't know is coming, but the current set may find itself on craigslist once these come out.

Interesting!!!

At least the individual crowfeet have a single hole for drive tool detent ball retention. I would have preferred cutouts on each side of the square drive but, most crowfeet on the market don't even have the single hole. Nice storage options even if the colors are reversed/wrong.

I liked those trays. They probably take up quite a bit more room than the bars, but you don't have to take the whole thing apart to get the size in the middle.

They're a little bit spendy but I like seeing USA on my tools so I will buy them.

I really like them! Those trays are awesome.

Summer 2020? I think I’ll pick these up when they come out instead of completing my MAC set. I’ve a number of Tekton tools/sets and they’re very nice for the money.

Too expensive for a “budget oriented” tool brand. Won’t hold resale value.

So how does resale effect their function? I don't think many people buy hand tools for resale value. What USA made crowsfeet sets come even close to them in price? I could only think of Williams.

Seem to be cheaper by a margin than William's USA made sets which have 10 less pieces.

30 piece Tekton USA is $250
(2) 10 piece Williams sets are $286.40

Yeah I don’t think anyone buying these will be concerned about resale value. I like that all their sets do not skip sizes. That’s real tough to beat in the budget tool realm. Tekton has good things going for them.

Who buys tools for their resale value

I would buy those puppies to use & abuse, and consider myself lucky with the price to quality ratio.

I get that some truck brand items retain their value but, that residual value doesn't come near to the upfront cost.

Anyway, I'm elated to see Tekton continue to release new products throughout the year.

Good job Tekton with the USA made product.

Really like the direction Tekton has been going lately. I’ve replaced my old worn Craftsman USA sockets with Tekton sockets and couldn’t be happier. Their 90 tooth ratchets are great and very hard to beat for the price IMO. I don’t need a set of crows feet but if I did I’d be all over these. Nice to see USA made too.

We'll have to wait for user reviews. But it's hard for me to ignore Tekton's push toward further domestic production. Since I retired a couple years ago I have come to appreciate Tekton.

Nice pricing, 150 for tekton vs 225 for the 10-24 proto set I bought a while back. If these end up like their 30/60 angle wrenches, I think we'll have a winner.
