False Advertising... [Posted on 2007-09-19] I owned an SK torque wrench about 15 years ago that was stolen. I remembered it being of good quality so, when it came time to purchase another, I looked again to SK. The quality of this wrench, while adequate, does not seem to be as good as my previous wrench. I would call it a step above, say, a Craftsman or Matco product but not nearly as nice as a Snap-on or Stahlwille product. The real issue, however, is in the description Amazon provides for this tool. It states the manufacturer provides a lifetime warranty for this tool not once, but twice. It was this warranty that was the dealmaker for me. I was surprised then to find that the warranty is, in fact, a 90-day/1-year limited warranty. Had I known this before the purchase, I most likely would have made a different choice. So be forewarned... while the tool works as advertised, you are not getting everything the description says you are!
