@motojobobo:

@Aetas , is the IH roll case available for purchase?

Haraki only made 21 and I think they'll all be staying in Japan I am afraid….

I guess this hasn't changed?

[Giles]

It has not…...

[stoneweed1]

anyone use Hilti?

[stoneweed1]

Or Festool?

[Giles]

Great use for a cordless …..

Anyone else gone down there Japanese hand tool rabbit hole? Really enjoy working with my nepros and koken tools when I can. The snap on stuff just feels clunky and awkward in comparison.

[Giles]

Oh shit............Loving the look of the Nepros.....

[Giles]

Need.....

Their ratchets and sockets are so incredibly nice. The mirror finish is not unlike a good art piece. The koken stuff is a bit more designed for functionality imo and I like their action and handling a bit more. Especially how they design the ratchets for ultra low back drag.

[JDelage]

How about PB Swiss? They make lovely hand tools.

[pechelman]

ive never actually handled any of them but hear they make a pretty decent ratcheting screwdriver

I'm a bit of an unabashed tool whore. One of my many hobbies is building fine bamboo fly fishing rods which requires absolute precision.

@Jcaz6996 is that a Martinez I spot? I’ve been thinking about buying one myself for a while now, do you think it justifies its price?

[Jcaz6996]

@DeeDee85 if it’s something that you’re going to use most days definitely a yes . Don’t get any better the a Martinez.
Don’t know why but I bought Two

This one I’m going to give to my Son when he starts with us in February.

[Jcaz6996]

@Heavy_blue mate I just have major issues with buying 2 of most things ..

[DeeDee85]

@Jcaz6996 I’m a roofer, so we batten the roofs out with nail guns but then fix the tiles/slates with a hammer and I end up knocking in a few hundred nails a day at least.. the few joiners I’ve asked have said the same as you, I just need to bite the bullet and get one ordered don’t i!

[Jcaz6996]

@DeeDee85 sure do mate won’t regret it

[Giles]

I have zero need for one. But now I want one
