One of the best tap & die sets out there for the money. The ratchet handle makes it much easier to get straight alignment as opposed to the old fashioned handles. Just wish Gear Wrench would manufacture this set in the US instead of offshore.

I had owned a very inexpensive tap & die set for many years. The taps and dies weren't the worst, but trying to use them with supplied handles was a big pain. I finally decided to buy the Gear Wrench set. What a difference!! My initial impression when I opened the case was what a nice layout. Absolutely ingenious setup for tapping and cutting threads. The ratcheting handle is perfect. For tapping you just insert the tap head into the handle and away you go. Same with the dies. I couldn't be more pleased with any tool I have purchased.

I've been needing a T&D set for a long time, and finally got tired borrowing a friend's really good Craftsman set. I agonized for a while about which set to buy - of all the tools to cheap out on, a tap & die set is really not one of them. You do *not* want your tap breaking or damaging threads, it's not like you get to do this sort of work over again if you blow it. The Craftsman set was pretty expensive for what it offered, so I started looking else. Since I have always had great experiences with Gear Wrench tools, and based on reviews on Amazon and a couple automotive forums I checked out decided to pull the trigger. This kit does not disappoint - it has everything you might need, and all of it is high quality. I'm extremely satisfied with this purchase, and am looking forward to getting a lot of use out of it!
