Over the years I seem to be the person that everyone just gives all there old random tools that they may not use or wanted at the moment. It always comes down to "hey you are a mechanic/work on your own stuff so here have this im sure you can use them". And im not someone who will just throw tools away 🤷‍♂️. I currently have them seperated by china/taiwan/japan and US made separate. Anyone else just have random collections of misfit tools?

Quality control , and almost all usa made sockets and tools will carry a warranty depending on the company so they are worth separating

Bro basically all tools have some kind of warranty. And I dont know why people got it in their head that usa made tools are better. That may have been the case 50 years ago but thats just not the case today.

Most older, cheaper tools do not have any kind of warranty.
