VIM tools?

[Rust_Belt_Pete]

Vim tools has a new line of ratchets that are made in USA. Any one have any experience with them?
How do they stack up against something like Nepros tools ratchets?

Never heard of them. What's the warranty like?

I wrote them off after a very strange warranty (attempted) experience. https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/vim-tools-warranty-disappointment.380895/

I just shop elsewhere now, there are plenty of options on the market.

Three people were copied in the email exchanges with them all with the last name Lopez. It almost seems like a family affair, which could make them more likely to circle the wagons if they feel it's their money (vs an employee). I'm not saying that's what happened but the whole thing was weird and life's too short so I choose to spend my dollars elsewhere.

Vim makes good tools. That being said, these are priced at Snap-on level.

Some amazing ratchets are in this price range. KTC, Koken & Snap-on are tough competitors.

I went with koken. Thank you.

Nice high quality tools. I bought some long (100 and 120mm) XZN 3/8 drive sockets from them, the quality is top shelf. The nice thing is they have a round shank. I have the Hazet 1/2 drive long with round shanks but they are a bit bulky for what I need them for and considerably more expensive. Koken is just a few towns over so they come quick.
