I did have one situation where my mechanic was trying to remove a recessed hex head bolt and his Mac & Allen brand weren't gettin' it, so I went to my store and picked up an Eklind (made in USA, but not expensive) and it removed it! The Mac was an extra long hex key and was twisting under torque. I think the Allen was just too worn, so all it took was something new and strong. There's absolutely no way I would ever consider HF hex keys!!!
