S/K, Husky, or a number of other brands. But -not- Sears if you're
looking for a click-type torque wrench. The S/K, Husky and others are
all basically the same wrench sold under different names, and they all
carry a life-time warrantee. The Sears torque wrenches are only one
year, something to do with it not being considered a "hand-tool".
In my experience, I've found three basic levels of "mechanic" wrenches.
Sears being the bottom rung. S/K etc. being good quality at a reasonable
price. And then tools like Snap-On. Some people have told me that the
Snap-On tools are just like all the others, but I didn't get that
impression from looking at them.
As always, YMMV, and Caveat Emptor.
