I hope there is still something of genuine quality made here.

Yes, Snap-on is still made in the USA. And they are genuine quality tools.

That said, Craftsman, back when they bore "USA" or "Forged in the USA" were also good quality. No, not snap-on or Proto quality, but a hell of a bang for the buck and perfectly okay for most home wrenching.

Alas, Craftsman has become "crapman"...cheap chinese product made to look like the tools of old, but really about the same as harbor freight junk.

Glad I bought my tools when I did. Not sure which way I'll go if I need more.
