I've used both Craftsman and Snap-On wrenches. Although the Snap-On wrench
is prettier, I don't see that it's better in any meaningful way, and it
certainly doesn't have a better warranty.

My preference is for Klein. Simmilar metalurgy and construction,
but with a better price-performance than Snap-On. Sears used to
make decent tools, but lately, well, it's going downhill fast.
I've never seen a Snap-On or Klein break barring idiot
moves that usually break you or what you are working on,
but Sears uses that "lifetime replacement" all the time.

I guess it's like a Toyota versus a KIA. One just doesn't
*need* a big warranty. I'd rather own the one that never
breaks in the first place, replacement warranty or not.
