Yeah, like I said....those are junk. Broken every single pair of that style I ever bought. Plus, if the area is tight, you can't get those bulky ones in. I'm done debating this. It is what it is.

Agree with both points. If I was using my tools to make a living, I wouldn't have the set with the exchangeable tips. But for someone who just works in his own garage on Cubs, garden tractors, and his own vehicles, a $20 set is just fine. If it breaks in 5, 10 years, it's not like they'll be expensive to replace.
My point is, you BOTH have valid points. John is right in saying you get what you pay for; if in 50 years his break, he gets new ones for free. That is the right choice for a professional mechanic. But the other side is it doesn't make sense for a guy like me to drop big coin on a professional set when I use them less than 6 times a year on a Cub.
So there, we can all be right!!
