Westward rachating wrench ?'s

[Cookannapurna]

I have been wanting a set of fixed head, reversible, rachating wrenches for a while. I was unimpressed with the Gearwrench offerings, so I looked around and bought a set Westward.

They feel great, but I have two questions.

Do you guys know who makes the Westward wrenches, I'm assuming that they do not make them. Please don't tell me Gearwrench lol.

And should I be soaking these in any kind of lube on a regular basis?

Thanks in advance for any info.

As far as soaking ratcheting wrenches in any lube, I haven't heard the need for this but others might have other opinions.

Thanks, I read that post but there was nothing in there about the rachating wrenches. This is the only thing from Westward that I own. They were new in the package from my local "used" tool guy.

I am very pleased with the finish and feel. The locks have a very positive feel, and the action is crisp. I looked at bunch of others and I liked these the best.

COO is Taiwan BTW.

I'm just curious.
