Thanks for the tip! Did some research and found this site, painfully slow but worth the wait... I ordered the 2 x 10 sets then added the missing wrenches.

Can't go wrong with Channellock! These aren't made in America, but they have a bunch of stuff that still is, so I'm happy to support the company. Good info here!
Luke's Amateur Hour thanks for the comment. Yes, I have a lot of Channellock products and I love every single one of them.
16mm=5/8". So if you have the SAE as well technically no skips. Now if someone is only interested in MM that could be an issue. Thanks for the video!
That's a good point, Justin.
I was thinking the same thing 8mm is close to 5/16 also
This is a public service! Much appreciated.
I appreciate your comment. I have a few more videos like this in the works for release in the next few weeks.
mdlee52 looking forward to them!
I had wanted to buy the Carlyles but couldn’t justify the price. I just bought both 10 piece sets, the 8, the 16, and the 5/16. Cannot wait to get these toothy beasts in my hands. 👍👍🔥🔥❤️
Tytyty for posting this. Ive been looking at milwaukee and carlyle for a long time but i just couldnt do it. My do it best store has these sets hanging right next to the singles. It only cost me a couple of seconds to reach over and complete the set. A steal for $65. Thank you again. Subbed. :)
Skips sizes.... that annoys like no other... I'd rather pay more and get a full set
+Richard Cowtails Well, you can still buy those sizes and end up paying less than you would pay for the Carlyle set. I think that's one of the points I was trying to make it the video. Obviously they were trying to hit a certain price point for the set, and they had to sacrifice those sizes in order hit that mark.
I spent less than half of what I would have spent at Napa.
mdlee52 ohh ya. Fk carlyle.... channellock has been an amazing brand unsurpassed quality. I would trust this purely based on their reputation until now.
I'd pay double for a full set
I actually bought the skips 7,8 (which aren’t really skips) and 16 for $15 and ordered the set for $39. So for $54 I got a complete metric set plus the 7 and 8. Thanks for bringing these babies to light. I am still waiting for my set but I’m loving my 7,8 and 16 lol
@@nicholasbrown6481 Go ahead and support NAPA's sick profits. Channellock is a much better company in many aspects.
I was torn between the Carlyle and the Milwaukee wrenches and now you throw this into the mix! and then there's the Steelman 6 point combo wrenches I have on my wishlist...
Thanks for the video, just subscribed.
+Bruce L. Thanks! One difference between the Channellock/Carlyle and the Milwaukee is the length. The Milwaukee are NOT long pattern.
Yes but the Milwaukee are 6 point box end... I think I'm gonna end up buying more than one set of wrenches. I can always give away my old ones to people that could use them.
Bruce L. Very cool of you! I'm pretty sure that the Milwaukee wrenches are 12 point box end. Budget Tools has a comparison video you should check out. He compares the Milwaukee wrenches and a number of others. I have his video linked in the desciption of my latest video. Let me know when you buy your new sets!
Just buy BOTH! The way I see it is, women buy shoes for every situation and so should men buy wrenches for the same reason.
I like it!
I wish I would had known about these before I got my Caryville wrenches. Definitely worth getting. I will definitely be getting the SAE set! Thanks Mdlee! And thanks for the shout out!
You won't regret it, Justin.
Thanks for the shout out and link BROTHER! Great find by the way as well! 😁🍻🥓🇺🇸
ColdensCustoms you know I can't resist a good deal.
Sweet. You can get these for $37.37 at sim supply and they are offering 13% off right now. I just picked up both metric and sae. They have the missing sizes for sale also. So I got 13 pc set of metric and sae for $133 shipped to my door. What a steal. Thanks for the video, I was about to buy the Carlyle set.
+Tom Woo Outstanding!
Same place I bought the 10pc set. Fast shipping and a hell of a deal at less than $40 shipped to the door.
I watched this video two months ago and have liked the wrenches and watched it again and I am going to get both sets of them plus the fill in,s that you got. Great video MD.
Just another Taiwan wrench. I’d buy the Carlyle first even though they are more expensive than other Taiwanese wrenches for one simple reason. There’s a Napa store on every corner and they have a no questions asked warranty. Since I work in an automotive repair shop I don’t even have to stop by their store. They’ll deliver a warranty replacement to my bay. That’s why the Carlyle tool line is priced higher than other Taiwan tools. You have the advantage of their vast store network to handle warranty issues instantly. If you’re just a DIY’er that probably won’t matter much but if you’re working on cars professionally it means you have the same advantages of buying from a tool truck at about half the cost.
Channellock 8mm combination wrench: 347159, 16mm: 347175, 20mm: 302185
Bought the 10pc metric set because of your video. Only had them a week but they've been great. Hell of a deal.
After much internal debate, I've decided to go with these over the wright or Carlyle, bottom line is, more money for other tools, and I'm sure these will do me just fine. Ordering the 2, 10 piece sets, adding 3 sizes to each. Going to be about 170 bucks with shipping. Can't beat that for 26 wrenches. Ordering tomorrow.
Mike's Tool Shed Did the prices increase? I think you'll be happy with your choice.
mdlee52 from doitbest.com (only place I found them all) it was $39 a set, added 5/16 to one set and 8mm to the other. Than 4 large sizes, which were all like 8-10 bucks a piece (16, 21, 15/16 and 1) so the individuals add up fast. But I would have spend like 450 on the wrights.
Mike's Tool Shed Gotcha.
Actually just looked at my cart again. $66 in 6 add on and 80 for the sets, so 145 before shipping
Mike's Tool Shed that sounds right.
I have a really old Williams Vulcan 6mm to 22mm set that I can't stand the idea of getting rid of because they're somewhat hard to find, but the open end isn't very good. I had been looking at the various wrenches with teeth on the open end (Snap On, Carlyle, Wright) but couldn't stomach paying that much money. Thanks to the video though, I think I've finally found a solution! Thanks, Man!
Not surprised it's from the same manufacturer. Personally I cannot stand skipped sets. Hate not having the one piece in the set on a day you would really need it.
mdlee--These are probably fine, but I would be concerned about the aggressive "flank drive plus" appearance. The teeth might chew up (mar) an otherwise still usable fastener, forcing you to replace one or more of them. I tend to use the closed end over the open end for this reason; however, you can't always fit the closed end on it owing to space restrictions. If it's a really stuck-on or corroded fastener you intended to replace anyway, no problem, but it may create difficulty while installing new fasteners; this is a problem with exposed chromed plumbing fixtures. In that respect, they act more like "turbo" (extractor) sockets than a standard combination wrench. As long as you're aware of this issue and can work around it (using a different style wrench or a socket), then no big deal.
Good observation!
I was just watching a video from Workshopaddict on the new Milwaukee wrenches and someone left a comment about the Channellock and Carlyle . I am a big fan of Channellock so I started looking them wrenches up and came across your video. I really like them I don't really need any wenches but I really want them now lol I have a set of old SAE and metric made in the USA Craftsman I have had for about 20 years so I don't need anymore wenches. Great video by the way.
Thank you.
That was me Charlie! Glad you found your way to this community. We'll do our darndest to keep you up on the deals as we find them. :-)
Yea I remember now that it was you that mentioned them. I have been around the TH-cam tool community for a long time and still find new channels like mdlee52 after I searched for Channellock wrenches and found this video.I have bought a lot of tools from watching all of you guys and have a lot on my Amazon wishlist to lol.
Good to hear Charlie! My wishlist is growing to be quite extensive. LOL
I'm buying these right now. Thank you.
Bob Sacamano Good to hear!
The ratcheting version of these are even better . Excellent wrenches
Nice, thank you and Garnett tools for the tool recommendation.
You are very welcome! And I'm sure Garnett feels the same way.
ChannelLock and Do It Best will ship to a local affiliated hardware store near you. There were several stores that were given to me as an option when I ordered them from DIB. I then went directly to ChL to see if there was a price difference and there wasn't, but they offered the same ship to store options. My order was fulfilled by a DIB in Ohio, so there is a network of hardware stores that carry them. I didn't check the local stores to see if the actually carry them as of yet, but I plan on doing so after the holiday.
Good info, Rob.
Wrenches look like the Caryle but I HATE the red and blue stripes, Kobalt does that too, looks corny. I would try to remove the stripes. I hate that.
I have a complete mixture of wrenches from over the years and haven't really had any issues. Even my old super cheap harbor freight set I keep in the car always works fine. I have though about getting a nice new matched set though.
The time is now, Tom!
www.thetoolworkshop.com/dibtoolimports10pcmetricwrenchset309443.aspx
Icon are the same to I think the only thing I've noticed about these is the finish can be wonky so be careful buying online
i use this set professionally on heavy equipment and they work great. solid wrenches for the price. i personally think snap on has the best wrenches (i dont own any but have used others) but i would say these are as good as matco or mac wrenches that i own. i havent scarred any bolt heads or nuts yet with the opened end. but they do grip and was a pain to get off because of the teeth if your in a rush. i can personally recommend them, but to each their own.
Thank you for your feedback! I just pinned your comment to the top.
I got the metric set from Carlyle 6mm threw 24 mm with a tool roll ,it's hard to find little hardware stores that have channel lock ,I was down in north Carolina and pick up a set of them for a friend, nice wrenches they holding up well
Looks good, it the closest Do It Best is 30 miles from my job, making it about an hour from my house. I’m gonna look into them, but I might be better off with Carlyle just because Napa is everywhere. Not in a hurry, but I’ve been wanting to upgrade my wrenches as well. Using Klutch and ATD mostly, plus my long ratcheting Matco wrenches. I’ll do some more looking around and se pe what I can find. Thanks for the info.
They have sweet flex ratchet wrenches too with the V grove you have to fill in like that tho
I am no fan of toothed open ends but am always on the lookout for extra wide ones. I will check out the Husky stubbies!
Cara eu amo essas ferramentas na marca #CHANNELLOCK, aqui no Brasil elas são desconhecidas. Mas eu as conheço muito bem, tenho algumas amostras. Posiciono a marca CHANNELLOCK acima da KNIPEX e até mesmo da sua concorrente direta KLEIN TOOLS, ai nos Estados Unidos. Suas ferramentas são ergonômicas, muito bem acabadas, resistentes, práticas, mas o que são essas empunhaduras? Quanto conforto!!! Suas mãos se amolduram nisso ai, o torque é altíssimo só pela forma ergonômica de suas ferramentas. Estão de parabéns. Sem sombra de dúvidas a melhor ferramentas de todas que eu conheço; Uma pena que no meu país dominam apenas as marcas chinesas de péssima qualidade. Boa sorte para vocês que tem a oportunidade de comprar essas ferramentas na esquina de casa. Eu, porém, tenho que importar e pagar mais que o dobro para poder ter essas "azuis" lindas.
Nice video MD. I picked up a metric set as soon as u mentioned it on stream.
Catloco's Garage They a great deal!
I ordered them at night and received them the next morning...lol There's like 5 stores around me that sells them.
Can't do it drive 42 mins to warrant a wrench when napa is like 3 mins from me.
Great video thanks. I have been looking really close at replacing some of my tools for the Channel lock brand. Getting tired of my Snap On and Mac Tools getting left out or not cleaned up when put away by my son. Retired just don't know but been looking at getting them. Thanks my friend for the video
Thanks Scott, I think this is one of the best deals out there right now. Great wrenches, very affordable price.
Milwaukee has the 15 piece sets with this exact style machined teeth for ~$120-$150 a set... they're an I-beam style like Proto. .. Really nice... Probably couldn't go wrong with any of them though... Nice work man.
+Craig Cundiff Those are nice! One major difference is that the Milwaukee are standard pattern and the Channellock are long pattern. Like you said though, hard to go wrong.
I have been waiting on this video. I knew you would bring us the lowdown. 👍👍
Thanks for watching, Nixon. I wanted to get some use out of them before I vouched for them. If you are in the market for high quality on a budget, this is the way to go!
Nice score I would use the professionally they look descent thanks for letting others know about the great deal
I think there are many professionals out there who would be very pleased to use these wrenches.
As of 11/19/19 Amazon is selling the Milwaukee Maxbite 15 piece 8-22 with no skipping sizes for $94.00 and Home Depot will match it. So you can spend 65 or pony up the extra $30 and get a much higher quality set that also has a great holder for every wrench.
Much higher quality? Explain.
@@mdlee52 Better chrome plating, feels sturdier in the hand, and overall quality of Milwaukee which is tough to beat for the price. Of course these are just my opinions but they are shared by a lot of people. I've used the Snap-On flank drive plus and the Max Bite is every bit as good.
You own both?
@@mdlee52 I don't own any Snap-On and never will. Just way too much money. The flank drive I used was a friends. There is no difference between the two except the Milwaukee felt a little better when using. I think that boils down to it being a little heavier.
Do you own the Channellock?
Nice find. I've never broken a wrench even while abusing it.
That's what I'm saying, Cush.
Almost bought the carlyle set til I watched your video. Sweet deal! Thanks man. Btw does that blue stripe that's painted on the wrench easily wear off?
No prob! No, not easily.
Thanks for the info on the savings cause I was ready to get the Carlyle one's but for half the money channelock look just as nice.
+matt mcmillan Right on!
Well,it seems that Channelock is going the way of all other spanner makers which is just to import products with their brand stamped onto them from one big company in Taiwan called Rotar Industrial ltd. Check their website,they make spanners under their own brand TOPTUL,and contract make for just about everybody else...Our local brands are Sidchrome,Repco,T.T.I ,ToolPro,all tools are identical only the names (and marketed price) are different..The Sidchrome ones have that open end anti slip jaw ...quality seems to very good,and is ISO 9002 etc..chrome plating seems extra durable,but then I,unlike others,treat my tools well...I would like to point out something regarding mechanic tools and their manufacture and use..Tools arent tested or xrayed individually,and as such metallurgical faults can occurr,especially when you consider the volumes of tools produced. There have been many people complaining about tools failing..I think a lot of this is due to people misusing tools.One should use tools correctly,as we were taught at Trade Schools,not forcing them beyond the limits of their design..properly used even very cheap tools will last..
Nice dude! I'll have to get me a set of these. Thanks, your are the man.
They are great, David. You won't be disappointed. They are on sale right now!
U can buy these individuals up to like 32 mm many bigger just wat I saw scrolling I'm going to switch over to these
Awesome man, These are on sale this week at doitbest hardware stores for $39.99
+crosier 357 They actually started running that sale a few weeks after I bought mine, LOL! I still feel like I got a really good deal. Other people elsewhere in the comment section got an even better deal than the current sale.
Great video your Quality is really good on this one
The Snap-On Junkie!!! Definitely can tighten things up, but I like this format.
mdlee52 Yeah I like it I like what you’re doing with the steals and deals things 5% Jew
Hahahahaha! The 5% is strong in me!
mdlee52 haha yes it is
Great Video Mdlee!!
Thanks, Mike!
They are better because that are half the price... Truth
+Juan Gonzalez Yessir!
Agreed!
great video brother keep up the good work
Thanks man.
I snapped a 19mm buy hand. Not once in my life have I split an open end wrench by hand until I bought these. They look and feel nice but the metal must be shit.
How about a follow up on theses wrenches?
Milwaukee offers the same wrenches in sets of 15 for near Carlyle prices. Irony is those two sets Milwaukee and Carlyle are still a good deal. These Channellocks are an insane deal.
asm154 1 I think the Milwaukee brand wrenches have a more sculpted handle design. That's about the only difference I can see. But you're right, this is an insane deal.
mdlee52 you’re right, they have a cut-out along the Center. Forgot to mention that! Milwaukee always adds a few unique features. One of the things I like about them.
Great deal, have you heard Capri tools from Taiwan they make the same style open end Wrench as the channel lock, Carlyle, Milwaukee metric 8-19 part # 11500RK with a 100 position ratcheting box end with lifetime warranty. I wonder if they come from the same factory.
Monday's video is on Capri Tools bit sets. I am very impressed with them!
mdlee52 the Capri wrenches are not as long as the Carlyle wrenches but the ratcheting mechanism is great. I have both set in metric. Looking forward to your video.
Where did you get the wrench organizing tray??? Thats awesome. Also they skip because 8mm=5/16 or is dam close so 16mm=5/8 which you can use from the sae set. So they try to make it a minimum set
www.sears.com/sort-a-tool-inc-wrench-sorting-tray/p-00965223000P?plpSellerId=Sears&prdNo=1&blockNo=1&blockType=G1
I'm actully been thinking about buy some channel lock tool here latley
I will have to check them out!
+Snap Mac Great wrenches at an affordable price.
hey i miss your reviews where have you been?
I have never broken an opened end wrench but I have definitely seen cheaper wrenches stretch and go around the nut or bolt. That really sucks. That is why I bought the SnapOn set.
You said some open ends are too thick. Here are some wrench specifications here.... www.snapon.cz/wp-content/uploads/catalogue/klice2.pdf
I am wondering if the quality of the metal is any different the in the manufacturing process between the Channellock and the Carlyle?
Have you tried the drop-test between the two brands and can hear the difference in the "ping" when it hits the ground? You'll definitely here the difference between the SnapOn and any other wrench but what about the Carlyle and Channellock?
Can you do a drop test and post it in the comment section as you do have the wrenches?
5/8 and 16mm are the SAME. 5/16 and 8MM are the SAME . Thats why they skip sizes.
I saw some wrenches that look very similar named Vulcan have you heard anything about them in your research? I can't find much about them?
I'm familiar with Vulcan. Their combo wrenches aren't the same as the Channellock, but they do offer ratcheting wrenches nearly identical in pattern to Capri.
I have the Vulcan set (purchased at a nearby Mac's Hardware Store). They're perfectly fine and reasonably priced.
The two wrench sets appear to be the same, but clearly came from different production runs, evidenced by the stamped name. Is it possible that better steel was used, better quality control, to justify the higher price of NAPA's brand? Or are they truly the same?
As far as I'm aware, they are the exact same except for the branding.
Rob's Wrenches did a video whe3te he shows a Carlyle next to a Channellock. You should check that out.
What do u use your tools for? I know what knocks is workin on, u know what im workin on....what do u got goin on? I ask now that iv seen in your box a lil bit and u got a decent amount of tools
So here's the deal: I don't upload any videos of me working on my car because I am just a DIY'er.
You and Knocks have some expertise in the field, and I view you both as being qualified to post videos on automotive repair subjects. I am not qualified to do that, at least in my own estimation.
The contacts on the starter of my Camry were getting worn. The car is twenty years old with 186k miles and the starter is original. I order a $13 kit from Amazon and pulled the starter, rebuilt and reinstalled it last week. It took me about an hour. That's the kind of thing I do, just work on my own car or maybe family member cars. Maybe I should consider filming some of that, but the I would hate to post a video and give someone else incorrect instruction. Can you dig it?
mdlee52 i dig....and ive never had a job in the automotive field. I to am a diy Just with alot of tools and equipment. Because iv never worked in a auto shop it made it difficult to meet the requirements to get my ase cert. But i found a away around it
If you support yourself financially by working on cars, you are a professional. I understand there is a larger conversation to be had there, but that is my basic thought.
When I worked as a carpenter and general contractor, I never had any formal apprenticeship or trade school background. But I was a professional.
Come on MDLEE52 lets be the first on youtube to do a follow up on these beauties.
Can't find them anywhere!
These are the same as the standard length and not the long pattern Carlyles right?
Long Pattern. I think the regular pattern Carlyles do not have the traction grooves on the open end. The Channellocks are definitely long pattern wrenches.
So the day I posted this reply, before your response, I picked up both the metric and sae Carlyle sets for about $85 a piece. Even after knowing about this deal, I couldn't bring myself to return them and buy the channellocks. I guess I'm brandist! haha
Also, since you're big into the tool deals. The 3 piece craftsman pry bar set (made by Wilde) is $19 right now. That's a pretty killer deal if you ask me.
I get where you're at on that. And that is a good deal in the pry bar set. I think I paid $14 for mine.
These look like a great option, the last thing I need is another combination wrench set or I would purchase a set of these.
Hey Mark, thanks for stopping by. I think I made this video a few months too late for several people. They are very nice wrenches, for sure.
I wonder if they cover the same ranges as Carlyle? 21,22,24, 27,32, & 36mm are all required for me.
Mark Fox I'm not sure all of those sizes offer the traction grooves, Mark. I will try to check next week when I visit the hardware store.
It appears the largest wrench size Channellock offers with the traction grooves on the open end is 32 mm.
www.channellockproducts.com/products/303000
This is also true of the Carlyle.
www.carlyletools.com/products/wrenches/long-panel
So as far as the long pattern, traction grooved open-end wrenches from Infar Inc. are concerned, 32 mm is the largest size offering.
That is the same as Carlyle then. Carlyle does offer wrenches up to 50mm but nothing 33mm and above feature the anti-slip design. Now some body that owns both the Cahnnellock & Carlyle need to compare them side by side to see if they are the same length & width.
Some things are the same price. I cant find the flex head for any cheaper than carlyle
Hello,
How long are the 19mm end to end? Want to know if I got enough room in my tool chest. Thanks.
- Ed Reed
About 11-1/16 inches.
Thank you.
- Ed Reed
They are only good if it's got a full set not skipping sizes. I'd gladly spend more money on wrenches with a full set and not have to search for the missing sizes and then get a new wrench holder.
Channellock is Made in USA! I like all the pliers.
Most of their tools are made in the USA. However, these wrench sets are imported from Taiwan.
mdlee52 as long as not made in China I’ll take it,:)
I get where you're coming from!
Stay away from anything that says code blue and has the red and blue handles, that’s most of their foreign stuff.
I can't find a metric set
Hey, so I've been really considering these, but I've been wondering do the teeth ruin the fasteners at all?
I haven't had them leave any marks on Fasteners. That being said, I'm sure if you applied enough pressure it would leave marks. But ordinarily, no.
Can you confirm if the smaller wrenches dont have Channellock stamped inside the banner they stamped on the tool?
+Kev M that is correct, the smaller wrenches have the banner but do not actually say Channellock.
Thanks!
I dont know if i can resist.....was hopin to make an all USA set but these look nice!
+Kev M Great set for the price. Major value.
Finally had time to drive out to a do it best and the they were 49.99. Told them i saw them online for 39.99 and when I went to look it was now 49.99.. I think i missed the deal by 1 day ugh. I didnt buy them gonna hold out now
same as icon also but much cheaper
...why the heck no 8mm, but a 9mm??...NEVER used a 9mm, but an 8mm is essential...that might be a deal breaker with me...no 16mm is annoying, but not as big a deal... Now....what is REALLY annoying is sets that go from 14mm to 17mm, with no 15 or 18mm! I rarely use a 17mm, but 15mm and 18mm are common as mosquitos on cars and trucks.....
I had two people tell me in the last week that they've never used 15 mm and 18 mm. They must never have worked on a domestic vehicle...
damn it mdlee. I had just decided to buy a set of wright grip wrenches over the Napa for the flank deiveway looking grooves
no 16mm though. my mild OCD will not allow me to buy sets that skip. plus I want USA made for my wrench set
I had to buy the 8mm and 16mm. Still half the price though!
I understand the desire to own USA-made. But if you don't mind import, these are a great option.
so they offer them just not in the sets
Mike's Tool Shed Right, you can buy individual sizes.
Why don't you do a review on the flex head and straight ratcheting wrench? They both have the grooved open end.
If I can catch those on sale I will definitely do a review of them!
Thank you sir. They look like a good flex head wrench and I cannot find reviews online anywhere. They are a little pricey thats for sure. I got the combination wrenches from channellock in both MM and SAE after your review of them. Keep up the good work and hopefully those flex head channellock ratcheting wrenches go on sale soon.
where is the follow up on these wrenches?
Use them regularly and still live them. Maybe I'll do a follow up before the end of the year.
I think I may end up getting the open ended wrenches from Channellock.
+Hard Knocks Forge The double open end? Do a video and I'll link to it.
When I pull the trigger I'll be sure to let you know first...
Great great content
Thanks Emery, I'm really hoping this helps some people out.
Great video. It's nice to see guys out there looking for good products at reasonable prices. Too often guys flock to the tool trucks and end up in debt. If the manufactures out here haven't patented the technical features, then it s fair game for everyone, as evident with the flank drive feature. Keep the vids coming and please check out my channel as well. I'm new to the community but I have a passion for tools.
Are these the same as Milwaukee wrenches ? Looks identical
No, the Channellocks are quite a bit longer. The open ends are similar.
I guess I'm going to upgrade my wrenches...
BEARDED YAKIN I think they are still on sale for a cheaper price than I paid.
mdlee52. Sweet bro I'm going to check them bro
look exactly the same as carlyle
Yeah you are paying for the Carlyle name stamped into the same wrench lol
What wrench organizer is that?
I'll stick with carlyle....
Carlyle is over rated.
Channellock is by far a better company than Carlyle.
Across the board, I would have to agree with you.
Yes. Channellock does a much better job at delivering VALUE.
Found em for 30 bucks on a website called fandfind but it may not be legit

The head on the channel locks looks alot like the milwuakee max bite
good video there.
Thanks man, I'm trying to save all of us some money.
mdlee52 always appreciated
The fact that they include a 9mm but not a 16mm just shows they are not professional tools. I'm sorry, but that's an instant turnoff. It shows no R&R on their part.
I think it's more of a price-point decision. If you buy the SAE set you get 5/8, which is essentially 16mm. Also, these are the same wrenches as the Carlyle set, which are considered "professional" wrenches.
It funny Channellock is made in PA .
Nice video matt i think the only downfall is the lack of do it the best i wonder if you can warranty thru channellock themselves?
I would bet that Channellock would take of customers on this, Chris. Elsewhere is this comment section several other people found workarounds for not having Do It Best locations near them, as well.
Where do you warranty channel lock wrenches ?
Do It Best Hardware will warranty them, or any other brick and mortar store that carries them. Also, you can contact Channellock directly and they will help you.
Am i seeing things MDL is NOT on his bed.
DoItBest corp corporate office is down the street from my work great company.
