I'm in, thanks for posting.
I got one coming too.
I can't tell a hundred percent on my phone, but it almost looks like Allen screws holding the pen together like Mac used to have.
If you look at gearwrench set, I'll link to it,
Older reviews are great, but one from 2019, and on from 2020,
They said the pins fell out and they were junk. But I have I set from a good number of years ago and I think it's made nice.
I'll bet it was the Taiwan made though, and now this is the China made.
I guess gearwrench is going a little bit downhill on some of their stuff.
I got the gear wrench, 24 inch, 1/2 inch drive flex head ratchet, on sale for about $57 and so far it seems to be real nice.

Woops. I can't seem to get the link to work for some reason. it's easy enough to find if you'd want to read it.

Yes, this set is made in China according to Amazon. I took a shot, Astro Tools have been very good, and they have great CS if a problem should arise. I don't plan on abusing them, and they're going to see occasional use.

Oh yeah they say China can make some good stuff it's just up to the quality control and what the companies are willing to pay.
And the gear wrench set is almost $100
( You don't do nothing heavy with something like that anyhow.
I'm curious to see them too.)

Edit;
Yes I've seen the Astro rep on here he seems like a good guy

China can make good stuff, if their instructed to. But I don't want to get into that argument.;)The Astro rep is great, which is why I've been buying their tools. I'm pretty sure these tools will be fine for my needs.

I would like to get a set but the wife is complaining about the Amazon bill!!
Funny thing is she don't complain when things are getting fixed for cost of parts only.

When I was going to school I worked at Home Depot. They would do that to make it look like it was on sale even though it was only the higher price for a day.
