Apparently Milwaukee has opened a hand tool plant here in the US, and they are currently rolling 100% American made screwdrivers off the line.
Their futuristic design aesthetic is a deal breaker for me, call me overly picky or whatever but I like what I like and modern design aesthetic isn't it.
Still I'm glad they're making this move, and I can see some good design here with the knurling on the shanks even if it is only on the torx for some reason.
With companies like S-K and Shopvac being Chinese owned now , WF & P-R gone, and Klein seemingly releasing more imported gimmick screwdrivers than anything, it's great to see somebody bringing production back to the US.
I wish they didn't think their tools had to look like crap to sell, but I can still get behind the effort.
I never thought their ratchets looked terrible, and if they start making those in the US I won't hesitate to add one to my 1/4"dr collection.
