£2/3 a pop for any size? Bargain, b&q here can't touch that, they are about a tenner each.

I also have some cheap 2 quid shot 10mm and 13mm ratchet spanners, they are far inferior to the kamasa ones. I took some pics.

cheapies



straight head



The Kamasa one is the chrome finished 2008 one, note the extra length, better leverage and you can use it thanks to the 72 teeth ratchet on it. The cheapy is a 45 or so tooth effort.



The higher quality of the kamasa shows here with a smaller thinner head



Obviously as good as the kamasa is it can't quite match the blue point or snap on ones for quality but for the money and the amount you get its a bargain even at the full retail price.

Tools are an area where quality really does matter, however snap on isn't the be all and end all.

I have loads of tools I could review, is anyone interested in more reviews on tools?
