Stick with the cheap stuff then. Like harbor freight. Those tools except for ICON are super cheap and safely have a few good uses out of them while doing the intended job they are meant for. I bought a super cheap set of Pittsburg 1/2" impact sockets years ago for $30 on sale. To this day I still rely on them at my shop and surprisingly have minimal wear. I call that a win especially when an upgraded 1/2" set with Snap-on or Matco ranges from $300 to $490. So his videos save us lots of money, just wished he tested more professional brands or high end brands for mechanics piece of mind. A lot of the stuff he tests does not hold up in a shop atmosphere

I think the Vintage USA stuff is the best all around. Just bought a brand new L. S. Starrett tap wrench, and the threads were gulled when it arrived! The 40 year old one I got off Ebay in a different size is far superior

I have used a lot of tools over the past 50+ years and still have many of the quality brand tools mostly USA made. I have also gone through and tossed away plenty of 'inexpensive' tools (most often China/Taiwan brands). You do very good and fair testing. I look at your videos before buying many of the products you test. Thank you

I started putting together a toolbox when I was a teenager in the early 90s. Every tool I bought was made in the USA, including one of the vintage Craftsman adjustable wrenches you showed here. Nearly all of those brands are now manufactured in China with noticeably lower standards of material and workmanship. I appreciate that you mention where each tool you review is made. It's important to point out the historic companies that are now American in name only.

I love my Benchmade mini griptilian. Carried it for over 5 years at least 5 days a week, still sharp and I’ve sharpened it once or twice. And sent it Back to Benchmade to be sharpened once. They have great service, and it came back good as new sharp but I feel like they took off a lot more material than necessary. Oh well still love it.

When the US maker of Craftsman tools got bought out or went out of business, I started buying every US-made Craftsman tool i could find at Sears and at Sears online. I already had enough inch tools, so pretty much stocked up on metric wrenches, metric sockets, screwdrivers and adjustable wrenches. it worked out well, but I passed on most of the inch sockets and wrenches at that time. The US-made sockets and screwdrivers were top quality. The wrenches were decent quality and strong.

I don't have any problem buying an imported brand either. Still, I always find myself buying Ridgid(hand tools and plumbing tools), Channellock, Bondhus, Wilde and others. Even though most of the tool companies are owned by conglomerates, they are still manufactured in the USA, which gives Americans jobs. Their warranties and customer service are outstanding as well, I've used them a few times and had great experiences. Great content as always.

I have genuine American made Craftsman tools. Back before Craftsman brand was bought out, I bought a five gallon bucket of assorted tools, there was a broken half inch Craftsman combination wrench in the bucket, I took it to a Sears store, they gave me a new one no question asked. What’s ashamed is it’s hard to get genuine made in the good ole USA products. 👏👏👏
