I get a lot of good tools at yard sales. You have to look through a lot of
crap to find the one or two good ones, tho.

So do I, it works great. That said, I have no complaints about HF
sockets and wrenches, and I used them for years. Their electrical
tools, though, were mostly bad for me.

The hydraulic crimpers and hydraulic KO punch set they have are
exceptions to the "bad" thing, they are very good values especially on
sale and with the 20% coupon. Their $3 DMMs inhabit every one of my
dozen or so toolboxes and have never let me down for quick measurements
and saving chasing after my good Fluke 87. Their mini clamp on DMM/amp
probe also works quite well when I don't need to get out my Hall effect
AC/DC clamp for the Fluke.
