Just want to say wera is a german company but they stoped to produce in germany since the mid or end 90s. They moved to czech and i thing in the last decade they moved more and more manufactering to taiwan.

Witte (connected to Knipex btw) still makes Matco screwdrivers, as well as Cornwells and ones for Napa Carlye. Mayhew has made the prybars for all these brands for years

Back at the time that you did the epic wrench test videos, I made two purchases as a result of watching them. First, I purchased the Gedore 6 open ended spanners through your Amazon influencer page. The second purchase was WrightGrip 2.0 combination wrenches. The Gedore 6 spanners have been great. They are the perfect thickness to work on things such as pneumatic fittings, where you often have to get two open ended spanners next to each other in a tight space. I've used them considerably more than the WrightGrip 2.0 combination wrenches which are considerably thicker. I had not been previously familiar with Gedore, and I've purchased quite a bit since that time. I think they are excellent tools. The Gedore Red line can vary somewhat in quality, but the prices are very affordable. Gedore Blue line seems of the highest quality but is pricier. I appreciate your having introduced them to me through your videos. Thank you.

Im pretty sure Witte still makes Matco screwdrivers, there prybars are currently made by mayhew. Great video. Im not a fan of the vim thin wrenches, there too wide and dont fit in many places, traded them in for good old Mac usa made ones and there great

Wera were sold a few years ago and the quality has suffered. Wiha make some of the best screwdrivers in the world. Second only to PB Swiss in my opinions. Wiha handles were the first to win an award for ergonomics. Enough said.

Hazet is an occasional OEM supplier for dealer special tools. TiN coated bit sockets most often. I've also seen glow plug sockets

Them and Stahwille are fantastic. They aren't cheap though.

@@LoneWolfSparty this is so true 😅 I keep wanting to get the Hazet long handle/long pattern wrench set. And maybe the 3/8" comfort grip fine tooth from Stahlwille (I've got the 1/4") Tough choice on the sockets, both look amazing. FRM missed a decent company though, Hayco makes some decent inexpensive wrenches and sockets, and other hand tools. I use their double open end wrenches for toe adjustments on alignments (10x13) (12x14) (16x18)

@@Jujoji I think they thought they could make more money being on their own; when they were selling thru KCtool they still had their own website where you could buy stuff from them -- I suppose they preferred the traffic all get sent to them instead. 🤷🏽
