As a Englishman this video has made me so jealous I wish we could get some of this stuff in England love the icon stuff and the ko Ken stuff
This presents a problem for old semi retired Techs like myself. I graduated in 77 from a Vocational HS. For my junior and senior year i had auto mechanics for 3 hours, that included a "0" hour. We started a hour before the rest of the school. From there i went to MCI for automotive technician and got ASE certified in 85. I said all of that to say i have been buying tools, mostly truck brand tools, since 1976. I now have more tools than i will ever need again but when companies like Snap On, Ko-Ken, VIM, etc... continue to offer tools that is just absolutely cool as can be whats a semi retired man to do. I honestly have no need for a single one of the tools you just shown. But the odds are pretty dang good that most of those will find a home in my box(s)
I absolutely love tools and get excited to buy a new tool.
Thanks for the video and review brother.
I’m a new tech still in school and I can’t tell you how many times I have put electrical tape in a socket to keep the bolt/nut in place. Can’t wait to order some Koken nut grip sockets.
100% worth it. The 8mm is great for Mercury Outboards since the bolts that hold together the side cowlings are in the worst possible places.
Congratulations on a great career choice. As I posted above I have been turning a wrench since 1976 in HS. Actually from the age of 10 helping Dad so 54 years or there around. You are in a excellent time for tool development. The tool offerings, quality tool offerings has never been better.
If I may, a couple of rules I lived by.
If you need to borrow a tool more than twice then you need to own that tool.
Do your absolute best to buy quality tools the first time. It is money saved in the long run. Be careful of "just as good as..." tools. For many it is just a claim to sell you something. Quality tools that are designed to last a career of every day use cost money. It's like the old saying goes, Buy once, cry once. Lifetime warranty doesn't mean much if you are constantly breaking them when you need them the most to make a living.
Again, Congratulations on making a good career choice. Never stop learning and always strive to be the absolute best you can be. A honest good technician will always be in demand.
Good luck in all your future endeavors.
@@randysmith9636totally agree. I do wanna add that I recommend new techs buy as much as they can from harbor freight. Once you break it, buy the tool truck version. Stuff like picks or those lug nut sockets with the nylon sleeve would just go for the tool truck. You’ll be using the warranty enough that it’s worth it. My snap on guy comes every Tuesday and just asks if I need a 90 degree pick. I usually do lol.
My grandmas old nickname was "NutBuster" when she was younger. She was probably a great mechanic then!
Wish we knew you were there! Our SEMA show goes live tomorrow night. Sorry we missed ya! Safe travels!
Oh dang! Yeah we were there all week! Mostly in south hall upper. Hate we missed y’all!!
@@MrSubaru1387 we were only there for 2 days. We spent most our time in the same area. It’s where all the tools were. Great show! Sarah and I both love cars so it was pretty much candy land.
I love Koken tools, they have the best sockets I own and they are manufactured perfectly
I love 1/4 sockets and the universal nut grip 1/4 13. I need that
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Awesome vid. I wish they made the foam holders more compact, they just take up too much space
I own 4 koken sockets, they are awesome!
Bought their spark plug socket it is flawless.
Ms. Carly Chase is a most impressive brain they found to represent them. I presume you’ll be providing links, so I can be poorer ?
Ko-ken!
you dont understand hearing that nut grip exists for the first time i might get the whole damn set 😭😭😭
They’re awesome! Super handy!
Subaru Impressive
I want the z set with a metal case.
Mac & Proto sockets are cold forged as well.
hey mr subaru, wha do you think of vims new lttle ratchets the 3/8 in 1/4 body and 1/2n in 3/8 body llook a llitte familiar huh ? as well as the ratchet wrench socket set 8to19mm ,,,TONE STRAIGHT UP COPY, BUT THAT ok, at least be easier to get cus cant find those and vim claims they will do both style ratchet wrenches one plain one deep box idk if tone does both,i only seen the plain flippable ones from tone you should do a comparison video to all this when available with tone set you have.
Both sourcing from the same Taiwanese manufacturer. Not really a copy.
Koken needs to add 9mm to the Z series and nut grip sockets. I have so many 9mm bolts on my bike that would be easier to install with nut grip.
My 9mm and 11mm have sat untouched in my tool chest for years.
@@richbenoit1840 cool story bro, it depends on what you work on, mine have those sizes. I have sizes I don’t use but it helps to have no skipped sizes so we can order ones we need.
Koken did come out with the truth on the wobble plus extensions.Some Snap On fanatics say Koken copied it from Snap On,this is not true.That Koken rep said it in another video on another channel that Koken was first for it and Snap On copied it once the patent Koken had on it ran out
Yup. That’s true!
just bought a 2013 subaru 2.5i 145k on it and its very very clean however didnt take very long i noticed it burns about a quart of oil every 1k miles.
is there anything i can do about it other then check pvc valve ? should i increase oil weight ? will increasing oil weight create a bigger problem then just adding oil every 500miles ? or just go trade it in take a loss and just know i may have dodge very expensive future repairs ?
Where can you buy koken tools here in the usa?
Kokenusa.com promo code MrSubaru10 takes 10% off site wide.
@@MrSubaru1387 DISCOUNT CODE DOES NOT WORK ?????
@@garyasadorian3791 worked just the other day for me. Phone or PC?
Why do they need to sell a repair kit for a tool with a lifetime warranty? Koken tools nut grip?
Bc getting a warranty from the sucks and takes for ever if you get it
people are always "borrowing" from the VIM booth
Why do you offer a repair kit if it is lifetime warranted?
If the spring/ detents pop off, rather than the socket cracking breaking, some people would rather fix the socket, than to send it in and wait on the replacement.
Definitely an innovative group. Haven't purchased any.....yet😁
Foam storage wastes a lot of space.
jfc stop sayin "UM"
Carly was great and clearly knows her Ko-ken stuff, but holy smokes she needs to take a presentation class. I think I lost count at about 50 “uhms”. Hard to watch honestly….
Carly needs to understand the forging process and describe it herself.
