I ended up getting this set. It has an interesting socket design that works on 6 different shaped fasteners.

I also have a older 1/2" drive metric set with sockets up to 22 or 24mm, something like that.

I pretty much have a full toolbox of metric wrenches and sockets but my toolbox caught some sort of bacterial disease and now smells like the Hudson River at low tide. I've never been able to get rid of it short of soaking the whole mess in bleach or something.

It was on sale for $119. The tools are nice, the wrenches and sockets are a black/chrome combination. I might take it back though because Costco as a 174 piece craftsman set for $99. Though the Sears sales guy was telling me that Costco Craftsman stuff is one off and, even though it has the usual lifetime warranty, can't be exchanged at the store. He was probably selling me but who knows. I'm sure Costco would honor the warranty. I've taken shit back there 6 months later.

Wow. You were *****. I paid 69.00 for that exact set. It is what I keep on the PreRunner for trail repairs. Keep your receipt and watch the sales.
