i picked up some Blackhawk ratcheting combination wrenches, MAC socket combinations, and cheap stubby wrenches at a sale for $58, the MAC"s look to be worth that much, stamped "Sabina Ohio". From what I"ve been seeing, new MAC tools are made, well, just about anywhere. Armstrong, while not looking as nice, are made in USA.
Anyone have much experience with Armstrong? I"m thinking I may go that way for any new tools I buy.
And I"m watching evilpay for older MAC, may as well match what I got if I can find it, right?
I was going to try for some of the Snap-off"s they had at the sale, but the auctioneer was ticking me off. Tried to make first bid at $20-$30, instead of the $10 they were getting down to, knowing that they"d go well over $50 easily, after I bid he"d say "WHO SAID 10!". A couple times later it was "WHO SAID 5?" and I quit bidding.
