If the steel is that poor there is no point in replacing junk with more junk under warranty.
Not Taiwan still? My set has been great, but I only use the ratcheting end. My go-to combo wrenches are either Wright or Snap-Ons. If you want a "good" open end… then you really need to look at Wright, Proto, Williams, or SO for their "flank/grip" feature. It'll snap off a bolt head before letting go, rounding or spreading. Of those, I feel the Wrights are the best value and the finish is amazing. Not sure if Wright makes a ratcheting combo, but the wright grip combos will set you back 150-200 for either an SAE or Metric set. Beats SO at $400+.
