If it’s the one where the guy finds the set on Amazon with the same ratchet only different branding and a whole set instead of just the 1 ratchet for half the cost. I think it’s a dupe. I’ve seen it somewhere before. Thought it was here.

i got a 1/4" drive comfort grip icon ratchet couple days ago, first pull to tighten a bolt the teeth slipped. does it sort of spontaneously, or seems that way, might be a bad spot on the ratchet cog somewhere. im sure theyll replace it no problem, just sucks i gotta go about an hour to do so

take it apart and clean it up, then grease it real good.

link to amazon set(s)?

Ah, I’ve seen that, on TikTok.

My question is: so what? I can replace the ICON ratchet at my local HF with no questions asked. When the Amazon set breaks I’m out of luck.

The video works for me.

I was born into a family of tinkers. I inherited my fathers, and both grandfather's tools from the early 1920s thru about 1970. Lots of quality American made tools. They're a blessing.

When I visit yard sales I've rescued a draw full of made in USA ratchets, many for $5. They're sort of like me, ugly but experienced. Sort of like when you shoot a 1903 Mk.1 and rack that slide. There's a feel to the steel.

It’s the same reason I’ve paid the tool trucks my hard earned money.

This. I’m so sick of dealing with Craftsman POS ratchets. Thinking about trying either Dewalt or Milwaukee.

I've had one particular Craftsman V series 3/8 ratchet for at least 35 years. Found it laying in the street near my house. No idea of its history up until then but it's my most frequently used ratchet and has never faltered.

There is a Hobo Freight about 10 minutes from my house that will swap out any broken Icon tools right then and there.  I have some, and like them, especially the 3/8 swivel impact sockets, and the very tiny ratcheting driver set.

Craftsman is good stuff, however a 90 tooth ratchet is almost as good as sex
