Eh fuck you bud, I've been doing heavy equipment for years now. I've made well over 100 thousands of dollars with their "shitty tools" yeah the Allen keys and torx bits are a waste. But Sokets and wrenches? I think I broke one socket and never broke a wrench. Need good cutters or Pliers? Don't be a cheap prick they sell the knipex. Need a good knife? Yeah they have the olfa too. Screwdrivers? $30 bucks on regular sale gets you set for about 6months only because you loose them all not broken. Measuring tapes? They got house brands, Irwin, Stanley.

But Sokets and wrenches?

For the longest time almost ⅓ of their Motomaster sets were rebranded Gearwrench. Especially the non-classic ones with extra features.

Now, Gearwrench may not be on par with Grey Tools or Snap-On. But it’s also significantly upper-shelf and definitely nothing to sneeze at.
