My Craftsman stuff has always held up to almost anything I could throw at it - and in the instance or two that it broke from using it in some fashion never even fathomed by the designers - I always just brought it in, got a new (fill in the blank) with NO questions asked! Craftsman is pretty much the best!

I've had one of the jaws of a Chinese-made vice-grips break off and go flying across the room before.....so yea, it does pay off to spend a bit more and get good tools.

I was given a K-D ratchet by my uncle, and I believe he said that's what the military uses. I'm not sure though. I just know it's never failed me, and it works great.
