As a professional, I use mostly Snap-on hand tools in my shop. I purchased my first Snap-on tools more than 60 years ago.

When I am working away from the shop, I have a good set of mostly old Craftsmen tools I take with me. The older Craftsman tools work well and have a good "feel" to them. I prefer them to the newer Craftsman.

I also have some old S K Wayne which are very good tools and also some older Proto which are also good tools.

I do the best I can to stay away from Harbor Freight. Definitely their hydraulic jacks.
