Hello again, Jeff Thank you for another Great Video 👍 You surprised me, No Gearwrench in the lineup. My oh my. Wasn't GW the one who started the ratchet wrenches. It was 1997-98 when I saw them in a auto parts store and bought a set. My thoughts on them, I'll keep to myself. Again thank you 👌

I started out with a Craftsman set of double box ends then the Snap-On laminated style double box ends, in the late 90s i picked up the GearWrench combination set followed shortly thereafter with their flex head set. Back in the day those GearWrenches were definitely a game changer. Now I really like the latest Snap-Ons, the dual 80s they are very smooth and fine toothed. I have a hodge podge of one offs bought for specific jobs and a few odd balls picked up at garage sales and Flea Markets. A few that have stood out for me have been Proto and some old Huskys, I've an old Husky 3/4" that has been bouncing around in an old tractor box for maybe 20 years, that has seen some abuse, and is still going strong. I also have Kobalt set that i picked up a few years ago for stupid cheap when Lowes was clearing them out to make way for Craftsman, don't really care for them. I do have to mention that the newer GearWrenches don't seem as well made as the first run of them. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. 👍

Kinda wild all the different brands of ratchet wrenches they have these days. And funny that you have so many different sets but no Gearwrench, the inventors of this style. First time I used a set this style i was working for a buddy of mine. He had GW and i thought they were a life changer. I soon went out and got a set myself. Now i have like 8 sets of GW. Need to compare GW to these other brands. Great videos in this series. It won't take you long to hit that 1k mark. It took me over a year and 1 video to go viral to get me there.

Itc cupon could have them for under $130. The Blackhawks and Williams do seem great tho.

Looks like SATA is the original Gearwrench 72 tooth. I’ve had the Craftsman non reversible for at least 6 years now and they’ve held up just fine. I’ve got the Williams and the Milwaukee as well. There’s really only a few companies making ratchet wrenches overseas, they get rebranded often. My old blackhawks are my favorites, Dad swiped them 20 years ago and he still uses them almost daily.

@@jefftovani5535 yeah i don’t have x frame just because they are not reversible. They are pricey. If i fork out that kind of money, might as well buy snap on. I had the $35 gear wrench for 7 piece set metric for the longest time. Never have a problem. I don’t know why i spend so much for snap on and matco sets. It just sit there and look cool 🤣. The capri and carlyle 6 points are identical beside the finish. I got the Tone and mac 6 points with ring tension to hold the nut. I got same icon set as yours for $110 on ebay new, also icon stubby flex head for $85 ebay. So cheap so i bought it. I don’t even know why i got so much. 😅
