Yes, when I am looking for a socket,I dont care that it is made out of
chome vandalium steel,drop forged, or stock number 3758693. All I want is
the size.I got some wrenches like that. They only say ,like 17, or 13(mm).
on them.Period. Must be made in China, as they like to disguise,no, not
even give a clue as to where they are from.I guess they dont want return
customers. My 19mm open end, did break,but I still reach for these wrenches
over Sears wrenches most times,for this reason.Sears now sells sockets with
large size indication on them.
