Not cheap but indispensable on my workbench.

Thin but strong. Many times, these have been the only wrench that could get into a tight spot.

Thanks again Scott, my set arrived yesterday. These will come in very handy  ;D

I know they'll be put to good use!

The older Craftsman ignition wrenches are awesome. They are like miniature Snap-On style tools.


The Wiha tools referenced above are also great and great quality.


If you get the metric set, I highly recommend you get the larger one that starts at 2.5 mm then buy the 3 smaller pieces individually.


They are 1.5 mm, 1.8 mm, and 2 mm.

Agreed, have always been very happy with my older Craftsman sets, only problem was the smallest sizes were 4mm and 5/32... where the Moody set goes down to 5/64 and 2.5mm. And the set in the pouch takes up very little space and is convenient to take with you to shows, etc.

These Excel sets are good for less cost.

I think the big set was less than $20.

Now that I like. Have to look out around here for one, as I can really use small nut drivers.
