Where I work now I have a tool box. Inside is a motley collection of garage sale leftovers filled in with new HF stuff. The Hazard Fraught stuff of the last few years is quite decent and I haven't had any problems with it in normal use and they frequently have to endure abnormal use. This is in-plant industrial work; up the air, under things, heavy things, dirty things. Install, demo, weld, cut, modify, rebuild, machine, etc.
One thing about the HF tools is that I can leave them scattered out and go to break or lunch or go home and when I come back they're still all there. I can loan them out and they come back. Need to customize one? No sweat!
I use dial calipers a lot and that one is HF too. Good thing as one pair got destroyed a couple of months ago. Would've been a shame if it was a $200 Starrett. At home I have Starrett this and that but too risky up there.
The hand tool quality is on par with current Craftsman, probably come out of the same facility too.
If I had to do automotive type repair work where I used the hand tools all day long constantly then it might be a different story.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
