I used another set that was a few cents cheaper. The locking tool is far superior to other sets I have used and for that alone I would choose this set over others. It's thicker and a lot stiffer than the last one I had, and while it can be bent with little effort, I expect it to hold up a lot better than my last set. The allen wrench seems strong enough to get the job done and overall I have no issues with the kit. I would recommend this set to others I have seen here so far. It might not have such a nice finish, but I think it more than makes up for it with utility.
