Then I remembered the many mentions of the HF version in here so I
went out to investigate. Turns out that there are many versions,
mostly in different clothes(colours and packaging). I broke down and
bought the Genesis version. Identical to the HF version.
For the price of a couple of Fein blades.

So you bought a knock-off of the Harbor Freight tool?

Is there no brand loyalty any more? No reward for the HF innovation of being
first-to-market after the Fein patent expired? No thought given to keeping
the Chinese working?

I'm a slut. A non-apologetic slut at that. It is in fact the identical
tool to the CE or HF.. just different colours. Mine is a green.. more
like an aquamarine with a hint of chartreuse, a bit more slate than
what I like....
We do not have HF here in Canuckistan. We have Princess Auto. From
what I have been able to tell, they dip their wick in the same wax as
HF.
