I used to work In a bike shop, so appreciate quality tools - but I also need to be reasonable about considering price for home-use tools.
Funnily enough, I still have the set of Sugino cone wrenches I bought when I was 13 or so. A long time ago.
They are very solid and worth looking for. At the time they were the cheaper alternative to Campy wrenches, but the quality and function is similar. They're just not quite as pretty. It wasn't unusual for shops to use these. Usually there were a few campys, a few suginos, maybe some old VAR.
