subject: When buying Hand Tools, always choose Quality over Price [print this page] When choosing hand tools, you should always choose quality over price. Someone wise once said "Cheap is Expensive, and Expensive is cheap." This is especially true for tools. When you have to replace your cheap tools year after year, the little bit of money you saved becomes a very expensive waste of time and money. And when using them, your work quality can be affected. Maybe they're not the exact size they should be, or that knife rusts when it was supposed to be made from Stainless Steel. Or the screwdriver from your multitool strips every screw it's used on. Is this value? Do you really feel that the pennies you saved are worth it now? NO! The only real choice is to buy quality tools. With a little care, they can last a lifetime. They will also reward you with a greater quality product, and enhanced personal safety while using the tools.
The next time you are shopping for tools, pick a brand name you can trust. Looking for a Pocket knife? Think Spyderco, Gerber, Cold Steel, Fury, Byrd or Blackhawk.
Need an LED Flashlight? Consider buying from Coast, Novatac, Hellfighter, Fenix, Bushnell or Streamlight.
How about multitools? Leatherman, Coast, Gerber, Byrd and Buck all make exceptional products.
These names have proven themselves over and over again to be makers of quality products.
