My dad is 77 and has been wrenching all his life. All his tools are Craftsmen. I don't remember him ever breaking a socket, and you can believe we've pounded more than one undersized socket on rounded off bolts. I'm 48, and the socket wrenches and stuff are all the same one's since I can remember. I started helping him wrench when I was around 7. Watch the sales from Sears, I got a heck of a deal on a big set. Know how I found out about the sale? I was at my dad's borrowing a tool as usual, when he pointed out the big tool sale at sears.

I have a bunch of craftsman stuff too... strong... but sometimes the flanks of the wrenchs are too big to get into a tight area... same with the sockets.... It's reasonably priced stuff that is gauranteed for life... can't go wrong... but they just don't always work because of their size. Plus it has only been lately that they offer offset wrenchs.. or swivel sockets..
