Default Martin Angle wrenches vs Snap On/Cornwell

I've never heard of Martin tools.They are AMERICAN made!They have the same 30 degree angle as Snap On for 1/4 of the price.Granted I'd have to buy another set from them to get the 15 and 60 degree angles but At $310 plus $179 for the separate 30 degree angle set its still cheaper than Snap On.So my Question is Have you guys ever heard or used them before?If so list your experience with them.

No that was Snap On vs Cornwell angle wrenches.Martin is a brand I've never heard of but its American made and cheaper than both Snap on and Cornwell.

Probably cheaper for a reason.

I don't think there is anything cheaper! I will admit I do have some of Power Fist finest in my truck. They are reserved for being cut, bent, modified, and hammered on.

I'm sure that 50% of the cost of every tool SnapOn tool I own pays for just the little mark that says "SnapOn". If a tool company does start up, it's going to be significantly cheaper than the big boys until it can establish a name for themselves.
