@kylekeyes462 um...no. Home Depot and Milwaukee agreed to increase the footprint of the Milwaukee hand tools and Home Depot made the corresponding move to limit Klein. That was part of the investor notes from a year ago. That forced Klein to move most of their offerings to Lowe's.

It is all about money, Klein doesn’t pay Home Depot as much as Milwaukee does to get a bigger foot print. Milwaukee will eventually have the same problem Klein had at Home Depot, which is going to be someone who sits behind desk, saying what stores gets what items, and how to display them, when Home Depot needs to ask it’s customers, aka Electricians. Klein hand tools always, Milwaukee, no, even that label of Made in USA is BS, it is assembled in USA with globally sourced items, so not good. If you want to use that label, to us Electricians, everything including the metal needed to make it, needs to be mined in the USA.

Not an electrician, I used to be in hvac so Klein tools aren't something I used often but ive still used just about everybrand of tool other than hart. I used to be a dewalt guy but I had to replace my 1/4 " driver twice after drilling a 3/8 " hole both times. Bought the milwaukee and has worked great for me for the past 4 years so far. I don't buy milwaukee for the brand name I buy it because it does and has worked for me. I still have my dewalt grease gun though because that has never failed. So to anyone getting into the trades remember this. It doesn't matter what brand of tools you buy you will still be ridiculed for it, just buy what works best for you.

Lowes was unable to sell Klein tools prior to a few weeks ago. Lowes has an entire Klein section 10x what has ever been had at Depot. Continuing to keep a huge inventory of Klein when you are no longer exclusive is foolish and they pay big money to folks to know that kind of info. My guess is they probably decided the timing is right to play on the growing line of Milwaukee hand tools.. You’ll never hear me knock Klein… Hard tools to beat.. I do like what Milwaukee is doing with their hand tools here in the U.S., though. Competition is good.

Replacing Klein tools with Milwaukee is a serious downgrade kind of like replacing Makita with Rigid or DeWalt The price is lower but so is the functionality and quality

My Klein steel tying pliers were all but 60$ 5 years ago. They get used everyday. Lol I can and have cut and pounded in 3” 16d nails regularly ontop of there intended use. Aside from missing the bottom grip/rubber. The only marks on them are paint marker measurements for 2-3 inch endo’s.

The rule nobody talks about in construction is that milwaukee power tools are the standard, but their hand tools are below standard. Standard in hand tools being Klein.

All my Electrical hand tools are Klein with a few electrical testers, main VOM is Fluke. My plumbing tools are Ridgid and Knipex, My Cordless are Milwaukee I would be hard pressed to replace my Klein Tools with any other brand. My Hvac hand Tools are majority of Klein Tools also. The 11 n 1 is the most used tool in my tool box. I do have some Wiha Tools for live electrical work. But I am retired and they do not see that much usage now days.
