Unless you are a tool nut you probably haven't heard of KTC or Nepros. Nepros is KTC's premium line. I only learned about them a few years ago. I only own one KTC tool but nothing Nepros. It was time & I couldn't resist any longer. I ordered these last month directly from Kyoto Tool Co in Japan. They informed me they were out of stock & I had to wait for the next production batch, no problem! Told me delivery would be in late April, perfect bday present to me. They were spot on with their fullfilment ETA. I even received them earlier than their expected delivery day from DHL. Shipped Mon 4/12, expected delivery date Fri 4/16, but they arrived Wed 4/14. I had planned to wait until my bday to open them but I couldn't resist any longer, so here they are.
They are by far the nicest quality tools I have ever held in my hands. Finish is impeccible & they're smoother than any ratchet I have ever owned. I'm absolutely ecstatic about these! They're almost too nice to use, well to me they are actually too nice to use! I've never felt that way about a tool. These are quick release locking ratchets, I don't prefer quick release ratchets but I don't mind them. And I certainly don't mind that these are!
Sorry about all the pics but they deserve em & my pics don't do them justice!
The spinners aren't drive size adapters. They are just finger spinners. Not sure how useful they will be but even they are fawlessly made & stunning. I'm glad I ordered them also.
Even their packaging is high quality, I mean who does that for a tool??!!
Don't worry my Snap-On, Matco, & other ratchets, you'll still get used most of the time cause these Nepros will not get beat up by me!
And cause there is no way I'm tossing these Nepros into the same drawer as the rest! Gonna have to find a very special safe place for them!
Sorry, I just had to share, thanks for looking!
