I had to have my Snap-On Dealer switch the hard plastic handle over from a non quick release. The 1/4″ Drive Fine Tooth Quick Release Flex Long Hard Plastic Handle Ratchet is also another thing I could not find comparable from another manufacturer. So I would say the set from 10mm to 19mm of them is definitely a worthwhile investment. I spent a long time trying to find wrenches that are better then Snap-On Flank Drive+ and I was not able too. I would say stick to stuff you know you are going to use forever and matter the most for Snap-On. You’d better believe I will be getting my first set of Snap-On as a graduation gift to myself B) I’d be silly not to take advantage of that. And then twice a year, the Snap On Regional Rep visits and gives us an extra discount. Through school, I am eligible for a significant student discount on Snap-On tools…like half off. If any of you know me, you know that I love the sound and feel of my air impact (MG725). And well, although I like the setting adjustment knobs and push button forward and reverse torque, I still wished I was using my Snappy. We had IR impacts, 1/2″ drive, available to us. The torque wrench…well, the torque wrench was the bomb! You know you have met your first goal toward becoming a Tech once you get to hold that fine tool in your hands…(anyway, come back to reality) The ratchet handle felt smooth in my hands, the ratcheting mechanism was clean and could be used quickly and easily. I used the standard 1/2″ drive ratchet (not the flex head) and 1/2″ drive torque wrench (click type). I had my first opportunity to use Snap-On hand tools this past Thursday in my Brakes class at school.
