Gedore 63-2 Ratchet Wrenches 63 Fasteners in TWO Wrenches! Compared to Klein

*CORRECTION - these are made in Taiwan. I looked at the wrong side of the package and saw Germany.
Just picked up the Gedore Red 63-2 Ratcheting Spanners Part #R07501002. I picked these up to be a metric set to go with my Klein Quadwrench Set that is similar.

FYI - The Gedore are made in Taiwan.. not Germany. My bad.. I missed the “Made In” on the other side of the package. And I thought they were all mad in Germany. The Size Combinations for the Gedore are 8MM-5/16" flipped to 10MM-3/8" and 11MM-7/16" flipped to 13MM-1/2" on the smaller wrench. Then 14MM-9/16" flipped to 16MM-5/8" and 17MM-11/16" flipped to 19MM-3/4" on the larger Klein is 1/4" flipped to 5/16" and 3/8" flipped to 7/16" on the smaller wrench. Then 1/2" flipped to 9/16" and 5/8" flipped to 3/4" on the larger.

One thing that complicates the whole Comparison ; Some recent Klein’s are within an ACE of being up there with Knipex !

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

@@chrisfyfe9212 yeah, sometimes not all tools within a brand are all-stars, and not all are duds.

[@chrisfyfe9212]

One thing I do that might get you to Shoot and Piss on , and invoice me for the Bullets and Labour ; I must confess I carry a Leatherman Surge , mostly as a “ Second Chair “ pair . Long back story , I hate fixed blade Drywall saws , they cause damage big time and injure people ! Folding ones are too fat and bulky ( like my ex Wife ) . I have switched over to “ T” shank jigsaw blades , using them in the “ T” shank adaptor of the surge . Once dull , fire them into the recycle bin ! I carry them in a leather slip , attached to the Surge pouch with a Paracord leash ! When dull , just recycle , lots of lengths and options !

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I had just mentioned that I hadn’t used a multitool in a long time. I need to look into them, they are likely much better now than they used to be (most other tools are) Thanks for the suggestion 👍

[@chrisfyfe9212]

@@MORGANSMaintenance They come with many more options , including better steels , Leatherman has replaceable cutters on the newer Waves, Charges , and the Surge ! ( 154 CM , quite a respectable blade steel a few models have S30V blad steel as an option ! All that said the heat treat they use on the 420 HC is pretty good for many/ most application . The stuff is a snap to sharpen

[@brianmartinez7530]

Dang, I can't keep up with all these tools

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I know… and it’s actually been kinda slow for “new tools” the last few months

[@MattHmm-rq6dn]

I don't know if you watch tools and tactics/ electrical connection but he has a good point of view on husky vs klein. The 1/2in on the small wrench is a big deal for alot of people. I think klein if they did a few tweaks could have made a widely accepted wrench. It's hard to go into a market that has a generic pattern with tiny differences and be successful with people that already bought the established product.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I just watched the Electrical Connection video yesterday, first time I saw one of his videos… and it was a good point

[@kevinliang9502]

I run into 7/16, 1/2, 9/16, 3/4, 10mm, 13mm, 17mm, and 19mm the most often in my line of work. This set would be a great addition to my tool box!

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

It seems as good as any of the other ones I’ve tried. I’m sure there is better and worse, but I feel Ike they are a good set

[@kevinliang9502]

​@@MORGANSMaintenanceI would still need my other wrenches since I need the open end quite a bit for some machines

[@jmp2666]

That´s GEDORE RED the cheap brench from GEDORE , not the good GEDORE

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

That's what I have now been told... I wondered why these were priced like they were compared to their pliers. Good to know 👍

[@manolopeguero4305]

Gedore red not all are cheap. For example pliers wrench red handle is made in Austria same as blue version.

[@three-phase562]

Gedore tools certainly last, I still have a full set of open-ended spanners of theirs from when I started my sprogship 30 years ago. I have a number of their hand tools in my different loadouts, but they do tend to be at the pricier end of the market. The 63 in 2 does seem to be a little bit cheeky really to me.

[@MattHmm-rq6dn]

I've had several of there double open end wrenches in common 8mm x 10mm ect and they are really good as good as my very old Armstrong usa wrenches. They ends don't grow over time with use slowly getting sloppy.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Apparently the Gedore “Red” are their cheaper option tools… these are also made in Taiwan, not Germany. It was on the other side of the package and I didn’t notice it till Mozzbergs comment. They still seem to be pretty nice to me. I’m actually watching your Draper video on my TV right now 😂

[@leonardpaciora5039]

I bought a set of combination wrenches in the late 70's and still have them today! I thought that they were a cheap brand but they proved me wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

👍👍… you get that many years out of something, can’t be unhappy about that

[@leonardpaciora5039]

@MORGANSMaintenance And I never broke one, broke a lot of craftsman wrenches though!! PS I bought them at a flea market for 22.00 New, 3/8. To 1 1/2 !!!!!

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

@@leonardpaciora5039 I have found a few good tools at flea markets before. They aren’t like they used to be though, now Flea Markets around me are just junk. Fake shoes and socks 😂

[@chrisfyfe9212]

Gedore makes good tools , tho not well known in North America !

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Yeah, I have only seen them by searching the internet. Never actually came across anyone with some in my neck of the woods.

[@chrisfyfe9212]

@@MORGANSMaintenance The examples I’ve seen ; ( not many ) seem to be somewhere between Klein , and Knipex in quality ! The few I’ve seen were far better built than Chanellock !

[@dashofawesome64]

In like The Netherlands, Germany, Belgium and Luxembourg. The main stuff they use for sockets and wrenches is Gedore, Stahlwille, Hazet and Facom.

[@mozzberg590]

German company, but made in Taiwan. Not a deal breaker, but ill stick with my Kleins.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I see that now.. I looked all around that package, but it was under the plastic Good eye 👍

[@racer-vl5cj]

The Kleins are made in China and the ones I had jammed up, I am looking at the Crescent, Capri, Husky and Gearwrench. I have some Gedore combination wrenches that are made in India that are over 45 years old and still going strong. They were my dads and have seen heavy use.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

@racer-vl5cj Cresent and Husky were the most recommended in the Klein video comments. I haven’t had an issue with my Kleins yet.. I was just looking for a Metric set and decided to try Gedore out.

[@Stefan_Kawalec]

Initial "G" is pronounced the same as in "ground" and you also pronounce the final "E". Gedore is from Germany, established in 1919 by three brothers Dowidat in the town of Remscheid. The name is acronym of brothers Dowidat from Remschei. Gedore Red is a sub-brand of cheaper tools. Regular Gedore tools are blue. Once Gedore had lifetime guarantee without any asterisks - your broke/lost/abused your tool or it was stolen, they would send you a new one. Thus they were even pricier than Snap-On. And better quality.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I noticed they were primarily blue… wondered why these were “RED” in name. Thanks for the info 👍

[@Stefan_Kawalec]

@@MORGANSMaintenance That's one of those stupid trends to get a bigger slice of a money cake. The only thing it does it undermines the original brand. Makita had his cheaper brand named Maktec and it was a good idea. High end and lower end of the same company should newer have similar names. Especially when the company started as a high end.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

@Stefan_Kawalec yeah the same name isn’t probably a good idea. If someone buys a cheaper tool as their first not knowing the difference… it could leave them a lasting impression of your brand. These seem pretty decent. As good as any other ones I’ve seen, but I don’t typically buy Snap-On etc. If I was a mechanic… maybe, but I won’t use them enough to spend that kinda money.

[@MattHmm-rq6dn]

Fyi for thoes interested I'm these there $45 prime shipped and sold my az maybe put in a link and add to affiliates? 5 dollars different makes it more appealing.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Yeah they are $10 less now than when I bought them. Says only 4 left. Sometimes when stuff gets low on stock they drop the price some.

[@MattHmm-rq6dn]

Thoes are interesting for future reference gedore red is kinda like bluepoint to snapon. It dosent mean there bad quality and ussaly the country of origin is the difference. Taiwan makes some great wrenches they give me far less pause than China. Spline intrigues me since crescent x6 aren't the size I'd like. I do run into square fasteners often actually. I do wish they were made in Germany and would be willing to pay a bit more because of that. The one thing about these that makes me wonder how useful they would be is the main reason I use these tools is crust toilet bolts and rusty/not clean fasteners. If I had to carry one small gedore instead of 2 small huskys for metric and sae may be worth it in the end. Thanks for comming out with a out of the box option 👍

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I had randomly just been putting in tool brands and scrolling through tools when I found these. I missed the Taiwan, I saw their address and just assumed.. but it is right there on the other side of the package. Also good to know now about the “red” and “blue”

[@johnnyolson258]

I've been using the my Kleins a ton since I got them. Super Handy. Just wish they woulda skipped 1/4" and gave you an 11/16" instead because I've already ran into a few situations where I needed it. I was thinking about getting the Capri set which skips 1/4" and they also sell it with a matching metric set

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Yeah it’s not often you need 1/4”… or that you don’t have many other forms of 1/4” on you already that you can make work

[@johnnyolson258]

@@MORGANSMaintenance I have used the 1/4 as a bit driver in a pinch with my flip sockets which is nice but definitely an easy thing to work around. Either way these ratchets and those flip sockets go with me everywhere. Love these new Klein tools for saving space.

[@2121contreras]

Those gedore seem to be a little better than the Kleins . I like fact that there metric to. Anything to cut back on the bulk in the tool bag and stay efficient. Btw have you used your estwing folding jabsaw yet??? Does it work good ??? Fixing to get me one of those . Thanks Morgan see you on the next one.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Yeah, less tools in a bag/vehicle is always a plus. In my garage I don’t mind using individual, but I try to save space in my work. Yeah I have used it a handful of times. To me it works just as well as my other one, but the size is much better. I was afraid the shorter blade wouldn’t work as well, but I’ve noticed no difference. I’ve only used in on drywall.

[@2121contreras]

Thanks you. You just sealed the deal for me . I do my fair share of drywall so lm always on the look out for those hidden gems that will make my day a little easier. Have a blessed day and thanks again
