Well the chrome on these Chinese sockets is nicer than the Chinese tools I had when I was fourteen - I decided to keep them, and I enjoyed using them... I figure as long as Park Tool honors any warranty issues, I should be all right.

But seriously, I just never noticed they actually removed the "USA" part from their Brand Name. I thought I had been shipped "fakes" at first. These are most definitely the nicest tools I've ever handled that weren't "made in the USA" - I don't care where they're made, but ever since I was a kid, USA - made tools were the ones I would choose, and it's just that I thought that's what I paid for, but I digress...

No offense, joejack951, I don't think anyone is "China Bashing" - I simply was asking for opinions on my new Chinese toolset, as I only have experience with the USA stuff. I'm sure you'd happily pay a premium for a nice Chinese frame bike. To each his own. I prefer Made in Tawain.
