I've owned three sets. Original gearwrench, craftsman, and Blackhawk. I currently use the Blackhawk. I have the SAE set from 3/8 to 1 1/4, and the Metric set from 8mm to 34mm. Also have Snap-On stubby ratchet wrenches. Really handy tools, wouldn't be with out them all. I like the Blackhawk wrenches because they have a fine tooth and work in really tight spaces.

I tell everyone dont use my flex head gear wrenchs unless they want to buy a set because after you use mine you will want your own.
