'vibration reducing' glove, 95584/95585
Pass, they do a good job on the chainsaw, blower, recip saw. However they do get yellow die on your hand after a day wearing them. It washes out with regular hand soap.
Pruning blade (either 68946 or 68040 already threw out the packaging)
Pass. They don't do any better or worse than name brand. They bend the same annoying way, they bend back the same way too. lasted about an hour of running time, pretty much all continuous. That's pretty good for recip saw blades. I hate having to spend a lot on the long blades I know will bend or break more easily.
gel knee pads 68124
Pass. they work at least as well as others. saved my knees in gravel. i'm not fond of knee pads in general, pants bunch up in the back of my knees, these are the same.
SAE Ratcheting wrenches 96654
Mostly pass; not idiot proof
The ratcheting on them is fine. The wrenches are sufficiently hard to loosen stubborn bolts. Pictured are 6 wrenches I used to change the brakes on my parents' car. of them, the 9/16 was the most heavily used and the most stubborn of all the bolts. My brother needed a reminder about which direction to go. He stripped a bolt and in the process notched the open end on my 3/4 wrench. HF swapped it without issue, but I'm sure most of you are thinking 'my wrench wouldn't notch so easily' which is fair. These were the ones I had packed, normally I would have used my regular combo wrenches.
I took a few photos so you can see it had 4 notches, and to compare to the others which were all fine.
