    Can anyone recommend a good set of Allen wrenches that don't wear easy?

    I have a USA-made SAE and Metric folding set at home that's held up well over the years. I'll see if I can find the name/model.

    I've got an old set of Craftsman allen wrenches. If you go this route, make sure the product indicates Full Life Time Warranty, as they have some hand tools w/o the lifetime warranty.

    I'm a fan of Bondhus. I'm a machinist and use them daily at work. The set I have now have lasted me 5+ years.

    I like the Easton sets, or craftsman sets.

    I use Bondhus at work. They seem to hold up really well. I actually have a Mac set in my archery box right now. If you look at the side of each wrench they are stamped "Bondhus".

    I bought a DeWalt set, its a little bulky, but they have the ability to lock in any position you want and the other dont flop out while your trying to use it. Plus a life time warranty. so far so good.
