Karma: SK ratcheting box wrenches - Metric **Winner az4783054** Login/Join

Several years ago, when I took on rebuilding an FJ-40, it opened up a whole new world of tool acquisition, namely metric tools, of which I had few. I really grew to like the metric system, and ended up with a whole toolbox (roller cabinet) of metric wrenches, sockets, etc.
 
My first stab at ratcheting wrenches was this set, a long pattern box wrench set that I found a bit cumbersome, due to their length. I replaced it with a regular length set, with flex heads. That gets 100% of the use, and this set just takes up room, so it is up for a Karma.
 
The longest wrench in the set is just over 400mm long (16"). The wrenches are not reversible. You have to flip it over to change direction. The sizes on each piece are as follows:
8mm - 9mm
10mm - 11mm
12mm - 13mm
14mm - 15mm
16mm - 18mm
17mm - 19mm
 
They have seen gentle use but are in excellent condition. Only one condition for the Karma, and that is you must have been a member of the forum prior to 2020. The Karmanator will pick a winner sometime this Sunday (2020-01-19).
 
  
For those who don't already know, SK tools are made in the USA, from USA steel.

Unlucky #1! I can sure use those. I have two tractors that are metric.

I can assure you those would get some use, primarily on my Toyotas. S-K makes great tools.

Thanks for the opportunity to enter.

Kindly include me. My BMW motorcycle is all metric. The Germans wouldn't have it any other way.

Great karma, but I'll pass in favor of those who would use the wrenches more than I would.

Yes, please!!
These would be perfect for the 3 bolts on top of my struts. They are a pain to get too. I have a set of Fox Coilovers waiting for decent weather to install them.
Buddy is going to have some HaloLifts to throw on his Silverado and they’ll work just as great on them.
