Yeah, I do like the grab handle on my Craftsman clip style rails. I used sharpies in colors to label 'em. Like "mid lngth, SAE", etc. With the twist lock Tekton? I just use a locked in socket as a grab handle...it's not going anywhere. For me, no problem twisting if hand is greasy...but I don't use gloves. Never liked 'em.

(edit) Every system has good & not so good points. A lot depends on cost as well as how you work with them.

(another edit) Here's a link to the Tekton site. Clicking on a rail or tray will give you meaurements of each, a help in determining space taken up in a toolbox or a work surface. If you go with them, I'd suggest at least two rails with a tray..keeps everything upright in a box.
