Can you still order Craftsman tools from Sears?
I am looking for a 10mm combination wrench 6 point.#42867.

I don't think you'll be ordering anything American made if that's what you're looking for, but Sears did retain a 15 year right to continue use of the Craftsman name.
Personally I would check Ebay first.
Always lookin' to learn

Thanks Hickory n Steel the first place I looked was ebay.
When I attempt to order from Sears site it says they can’t ship to my zip code?

I had two matching Craftsman 10 mm that i used to bleed my brakes and now I can’t find one.

Sorry, I was gong to say that these are available everywhere; except 6pt. I really don't know who had the 6pts individually available. Maybe Harry Epstein Co. in MO can help out on that search.

One thing I did see at the local ACE a few weeks ago was a closeout on Craftsman singles. Among them was a series of 6pt offerings. Might want to check out your local store and check the individual racks.

How about shipping to a friend, who can USPS back to you?

I will leave the Sears on line alone just don’t trust it.

I will drive out to the ACE store and see what they have.

Not many Craftsman tools at my ACE hardware store
The closest thing on ebay is a SK SupercKrome wrench wonder where they are made?

AFAIK, all SK sockets and wrenches (not adjustables), from the 1930s to today, were made in one of these four plants:

Defiance, Ohio (now closed)
Chicago, Illinois (now closed)
Colorado Springs, Colorado (originally Western Forge plant)
Sycamore, Illinois (newly built by Ideal, SKs current owner)

https://www.aviationpros.com/home/press-release/10389768/sk-hand-tool-begins-shipping-first-tools-manufactured-in-new-production-facilities

There are other SK branded tools which were made by other companies for SK, but not wrenches or sockets.
