Wilde pry bar colors and brands

[Jdubzz]

As far as I know the Wilde strike cap pry bars are available under the following names and colors:

Wilde & Old USA Craftsman - Red

Lang - Orange

Channelock - Blue

Masterforce - Green

Tekton -Black

Hyper tough - Black or Red (I think)

Are there any other brands and colors I’ve missed that Wilde is manufacturing for?

They used to make the USA Craftsman

They look a lot like Mayhew Dominators and I just assumed Mayhew made all of their own stuff and OEMed for bigger tool brands. Is there TWO separate US-based companies making nearly identical prybars?

Mayhew sells some items that are made in France, likely made by Racodon.

As far as pry bars go, all a manufacturer needs is a practical way to get steel bar stock to their facility, a forging hammer or press large enough to forge in the bent tip, and then maybe an oven large enough to heat treat and then temper the steel bar once the tip is forged.
Then a source for handles.
Unlike something like pliers, or even woodworking chisels, the dies needed for forging the tip on the Wilde style pry bars is not complex, and could probably be made with an angle grinder if a manufacturer wanted to be quick and lazy.

They make John Deere branded prybars.
*edit, sorry I missed seeing that was already mentioned

I have a pair of Wilde 405 battery pliers. Any one know anything about them?

There are "PLATINUM TECH" rebranded with dark blue handles on the Nation Tool Warehouse website. They are the cheapest I've found besides Hyper Tough. The 5 piece (12, 17, 25, 31, 36) for $89, and the 3 piece (12, 17, 25) for $45.

I wonder why Walmart took so long to bring the smaller ones to market. Now they should offer the 8 as a single since I already bought the others.
