Craftsman tools no longer worth to keep

[rijndael]

Does Craftsman still make these cutters? I haven't seen them in years. I'd like to have a few more for my other tool boxes and spare blades.

Try a RONAN Multi-Cut.

For just blades, for the Craftsman Handi-Cut, they're on Amazon.

I use them from time time. I put up FlexFire under/over cabinet LED lighting in kitchen and needed to cut plastic light diffusers and those cutters did a perfect job. They will not be going in the box for church yard sale. I have extra blades.

You can get old Craftsman cutters NOS and used on Ebay. The blades are available.

This cutter lives in wife's landscaping tool bucket. It's the only TV ad tool that I kept.

I can smell those clear handled ones from here.

Thats why I got rid of all mine at some yardsale eons ago.

Older craftsman stuff was good though. I miss Sears for their tool selection.

I regularly use the one near the left that's a type of channel locks.

Don't throw those Robo Grip pliers away. They make the BEST nut crackers. Seriously

I got a set of RoboGrips probably 25+ years ago from my MIL. I don't recall ever using them.

Was going to say the same thing. I remember vividly getting a set for my Father Christmas 1986, and they have that smell to this day!

I have a wooden handle flat blade screwdriver that was my Dad's. Tip is worn but I still keep it in my toolbox.

Tips can be restored by filing.

I found the anvil pruners on my gardening shelf do the same thing. I use it to cut hoses, just like in the commercial.

Great for crabs, too.

I upgraded. The HF Vise Grips and the Craftsman Robo Grips are on their way to the box for church yard sale.

The self adjusting robo pliers are great for holding items when using a bench grinder.

I still use the craftsman wrenches that I have in a tool box in the garage out back for the riding mowers. My main tools are mostly harbor freight and quinn

I do miss Sears though and K Mart.

Most Craftsman tools are quality tools. It's the odd tools that Craftsman sold that are the issue.

Yep, like this odd one. It's been in my toolbox for around 20 years and I can't remember ever using it.
