Periodically, I have been receiving advertisments
from Harbor Freight Salvage Co., Camarillo Ca. for various tool
offerings (hand tools, predominantly) at fairly attractive prices.
A large portion of their tools appear to be manufactured by Central
Pneumatic (air tools), Pittsburg Forge (sockets, wrenches) or
Central Machinery (power equipment - drills, etc.). I was wondering
if anyone out in netland has purchased such tools from Harbor
Freight Salvage and what their experience with them (Harbor and
the tools) has been. As a basis for comparison, how does the
quality of their tools compare to the Sears Craftsman line?
