Has anyone used, or seen industry reviews of the new Nikota tools. They are
cheap in price, and the Tru-Value hardware store owner I spoke with who
sells them says they are top notch. I was told by proprietor at Tru-Value
that they are a series of engineers who left employ at Makita out of
frustration with the company. If that is so, I'm sure the quality is there
(wording looks suspiciously shill-ish)
I've seen a lot on eBay and they look like every other generic Chinese tool.
um..... I think makita does their engineering in japan
