Are Wera Tools Better? Wera Zyklop vs Dewalt vs Harbor Freight

Today we will test out 5 different tools and a few of them are relatively inexpensive while the Zyklop 8004 B Ratchet to me is an expensive premium ratchet. While they all meet and exceed ASME and ISO 3315 specification I was actually really surprised that the Wera had an issue with the ball dent mechanism where none of the other ratchets had this issue.

Tools can be expensive or inexpensive but there is some difference in performance and we have been tracking many tools
and how the overall strength compares to other brands and these were a great bunch to add to the tools that we have tested today.

All the links below are direct links as I bought all of these tools with my own money and if you feel one of these items is something
that should or could work for you that decision is up to you. Enjoy!
