Phil,
Did you ask him what he was going to use them for? This could be your
opportunity to train him to work on your Triumphs for you! 8^)
At least he asked. My own experience is that when I look for a
particular tool and can't find it, I discovered that my son had
"borrowed" it and either left it out in the rain where it was covered
with a coating of rust or lost it.
