Review: Most beautiful half inch ratchet I've seen - Most beautiful half inch ratchet... I'm sure it can break something hard loose but I believe using a breaker bar box wrench or impact whenever possible... In rare cases will you need to get to a hard to reach nut or bolt that's over torqued with this... So if it's just going to sit most it's life might as well look pretty. But like I said I'm sure it's got the stuff to take some weight on the Internals. KTC makes quality and really good looking tools. Recommend pairing this with some stubby sockets. Review: Simply Amazing - I have vast experience spanning 20+ years with numerous different brands of ratchets from no-nome cheap dollar store to Snap-On and now NEPROS. I can confidently say, beyond a shadow of a doubt that this is by far the best ratchet I have ever used! Silky smooth, almost zero back-drag, feels fantastic in the hand, well balanced, and just plain beautiful. ## Features - Nepros Series - Feed Angle: 4RPA2023 Size B: 39.5 mm - Size Φ: 0.9 inches (22 mm), - Size T: 0.7 inches (19 mm).
