Kobalt is now manufactured by Danaher tools that make brands such as Gearwrench and Matco, but this was a recent change. Prior to that they were manufactured by snap-on which would be the ratchet Jfiscus had. Most of the wrenches and socket sets are still made U.S. but other things like pliers and screwdrivers may not be, you just have to check. I bought a couple socket and wrench sets before Christmas last year and have had no problems whatsoever. Iâ€™ve put a high lift jack handle on my ratchet and stood on it without breaking to get bolts lose. Craftsman is now also being manufactured by Danaher tools. Until 1994 they were made by Stanley Tool Company. Stanley makes MAC, PROTO and HUSKY tools as well as Stanley brand.
