Some of the tools that i've bought in the past didn't last very long.The tips would get bent or get grooves in them. Basically tools becameuseless very quickly. They were no name brand, made in outer mongoliakind of products. So my question is which company makes good, long lasting,quality tools. It's perfectly OK if I have to pay premium. The tools I'mlooking tobuy are the kinds I would need in an emergency around a city appartment.So, hammer, screwdriver set, pliers, long-nose pliers etc. What else wouldyousay I need?thanx

For hand tools, Craftsman, Mac, Snap On are a few good brands.You need an adjustable wrench, probably a small and a medium size for most household repairs. Utility knife, small saw, putty knife

Yes. The Snap-On screwdriver will drive a screw 30% faster than the NAPA screwdriver...

I've actually had excellent results with Kobalt, from Lowes.
