OK, Its been awhile but after read some recent post about the high quality
of HF tools I think we need to re-visit this from a different point of
view.
Do you just try to buy the cheapest tools you can find? Does this mean
your work is solely based on how cheap you can make it? Are the two
correlative?
Personally, I find nothing more frustrating than fussing with a tool that
won't hold up to the rigors of life in my hands. Underpowered, noisy
pieces of cheap junk that fail to do the job asked of them.

Yes, I am a tool snob. But not from arrogance but from experience.
Twenty years + as a mechanic and 40 + years as a (hobbiest) funiture
builder have taught me a very important lesson. You can't make money or
enjoy using cheap tools. Yes, the Snap-On tools I have cost too much,
however, I still have all of them and they still work as advertised.

Hummmm might be why I stepped up to a Laguna band saw.
