OK, See we had just bought about a $1,000 worth of
hand tools and called Lowes main office... after
checking with them, I got the following email
Dear Donald,
Thank you for visiting www.lowes.com.
They are produced by Danaher Tool Group for Lowe's.
If you have any other questions, please, don't
hesitate to ask.
Looking for your nearest Lowe's Home Improvement
Warehouse, please visit this link:
hxxp://www.lowes.com/lkn?action=frameSet&url=stores.lowes.com/lowes
Thanks and have a great day!!
Ray

Lowe's Co. Inc.
And as we all know, Danaher has most of its production
facilities in China, not Taiwan now....... If you look
at new and old ratchets, you will see the BIG
difference..
Oh well....
