Busted my mid-grade craftsman wrench this last year. Plastic collar broke that locks it in place. Looking for good solution.

I bought a Kobalt, so far i like it better than my digitorque craftsman.

This is the Craftsman I have, I would not buy it again. The numbers are hard to read and eventually oil will get underneath the grip and it will slide causing your torques to be off and damgage whatever your torquing.

This is my new one, the handle is aluminum, so at least it can't slip. Seems to be working well so far.
