My philosophies on tools are changing, a bit...

Used to buy the best could afford and still do, but not EVERYTHING.

I'll noodle between the two, but leaning towards Northern. Both that I trust Northern to have
better and that extra piece.

Have purchased from both and some tools, but not this type (socket wrench), but since low torque and
not going to use it every day...think okay to go economy (el cheapo is lower than this).

Learned about true 'El Cheapo' in my 20's. Bought a set of six adjustable wrenches (Crescent like)
and trying to fix a tow hitch on a buddies K5 while coming home from a boating/camping
trip...had the need to use these wrenches. While using the 'big' one's handle as a pry bar to move
something over, it bent. My Craftsman screw driver ended up doing the job with no further
drama.
