EKLIND 10509 Hex-L Key allen wrench - 9pc set Metric MM sizes 1.5-10 Short series

EKLIND 10509 Hex-L Key Allen wrench - 9pc set Metric MM sizes 1.5-10 Short series, provide quality alloy for tightening 12.9 class hex socket bolts.

Somehow, after years of tinkering, I didn't have a set of metric hex wrenches. I bought these to repair my bike, which is metric. I have a set of Eklind standard hex wrenches that I bought sometime in the 90s, around 1999, I think. They are still in great shape, and, miraculously, I have not lost any of them. When I needed to buy a metric set, I knew I wanted the same brand. I was pleasantly surprised that these are still made in the USA, and I was especially surprised at the reasonable price. I was not surprised at the quality. It is exactly as I expected-- high. The common phrase "Fast, cheap, or good-- pick two" does not apply here. These are cheap and good, and Prime got them to me fast.

Good set. Covering many sizes efficiently.

I own the entire EKLIND product line of Made in USA hex (Allen) and TORX wrenches. Including the T-handle, L-handle, and folding models. In most cases, I own multiple sets. In my opinion, you can't buy a higher quality tool for the money. In this case, I bought the EKLIND 10509 Hex-L Key allen wrench 9pc set (Metric MM sizes 1.5-10 Short) because I just ran into a situation where my long-shaft T-handle and L-handle wrenches were too long. Performing bike maintenance adjusting V-brakes with minimal distance from a fat tire, the wonderful cushioned T-handle wrenches didn't work. The shorter EKLIND 10509 set was $9.98 during the Presidents Day sale. You can't beat a nine-piece set for under ten bucks, Made in USA, and built to last. I ordered it immediately. My two teenagers are increasingly needing hand tool sets of their own. I can't wait to build out hand tool boxes for them. For anything related to hex or TORX, I'm ordering EKLIND.

It's becoming increasingly hard to find classic allen wrenches ! Lately the trend is toward allen wrenches with a little ball on the end of the wrench for, I guess, people who aren't able to fully insert the wrench. (?!) I don't don't know. The balls are ridiculous and tend to snap off. Finally I found these fine quality allen wrenches without the ball ends. Sometimes changes aren't for the best. Stick with these tried and true ones.

Solid and good value

They are just what I wanted. I thought I had lost the one’s I’ve had for many years. As soon as these were delivered I found my other ones. I chose to keep these in case I misplace my old ones again. Getting old is not as fun as I thought it would be.

Keeps an assortment of Allen wrenches at your fingertips

Good variety of sizes

Well made 👌

Why is this blue. The keys themselves seem built/machined well and I'll always buy Canadian or American when possible, but why blue. They are metric, therefore the holder should be red as per industry standard.
