With racing inspired marketing in hand, KR Tools rolled out a "sure to grow on you" tool set with flaming grips. One thing is certain. I won't be getting these confused with my Craftsman gear anytime soon.
This collection held its own when putting them to the test with a couple of small jobs around the house. Its a given that this lineup won't go the distance in a heavy duty environment. I've also noticed that the rubber grips have picked up some light scarring. Still its a good set of everyday tools.
This Pro Series set comes packed with a 16oz claw hammer, 8" adjustable wrench, 6" slip joint pliers, one 4" flathead screwdriver, and one 4" phillips screwdriver. Made with a combination of chrome vanadium and steel, these tools have a nice ergonomic feel to them. The non slip cushion grips are a nice touch. A hole is conveniently located in the handles of the screwdrivers for easy hanging. Both screwdrivers have magnetized tips.
When it comes to customer support, the company's website is very limited on information regarding its products. However, it does post a working toll free customer care number. The manufacturer backs this set with a lifetime warranty.
Overall I find myself fond of these tools. As I mentioned earlier, the flaming motif grows on you. Economically priced, this is a good "go to" tool package for small jobs around the home or office. I like them.
