    I’ll gladly pay a premium for something that will be “buy it for life” or at least last decades. Phones and computers have inherent obsolescence, but most tools don’t. I don’t buy chinesium tools, I buy reputed European, American, or Japanese tools, the lifetime stuff.

      same. no more knuckle busters for me. I’ve got spanners that are 20 years old that I bought, not inherited.
