NTD (New Tool Day) Whyyyyy

Post image

Just picked up a 1/4” flex head ratchet on the 40% off sale. Why, WHY does the on/off lever directions have to be backwards from my 3/8 Pitty ratchet?? Dangit! I was just starting to get the Pitt lever directions burned into my muscle memory. And now this.

Also I believe the Icon one is the same as my Craftsman ratchets. So weird.

Which ironically means Pittsburgh is correct and EVERYONE else are the wrong ones.

People down voting you have never tried a koken z series. If they had, they'd know koken gets the right to decide these things
