Wow, how innovative! Let’s take the same tools we’ve always sold, make them a pretty color and add a box. And charge more? I don’t get it!

Said it a dozen times. These are tools, not Wedgewood china. They’re gonna get their fair share of abuse thru the course of your/their lifetime. You can’t worry about nicks & scratches in the middle of a break job or while pulling an engine. Stuff happens. Bottom line is, can these loosen/tighten fasteners any better than standard issue? Doubtful.
