Message	I was perfectly happy with my cman stuff until I started buying and using SO stuff. The SO stuff is going to fit your fastener perfect where as even the USA cman is only going to get the job done at best. No more rounded fasteners or stripped screw heads etc. I can understand why people feel these tools are over priced until you start using them on a daily basis. They flat out make your life easier and jobs go quicker having the right quality tool. Perhaps they are over kill for the hobbyist but I look at it as a lifetime purchase. It's going to work perfectly every time and if it ever breaks or has an issue it's replaced free of charge no questions asked.
