A little insight into a lot of products you see on Amazon, like these tools for example. These products are often manufactured in the same factory, but get stamped with different brand logos and the end of their manufacturing process.
You'll often see a lot of branded products on Amazon whose name barely makes any sense, but if you pay close attention there's multiple listings for the exact same product, just with different brand names. Just because a product has a logo stamped on it, it doesn't automatically mean it's better quality.

I mean, really?
They're a set of punches for $14. Harbor Freight has a similar set without the taper punches for $17, so you'd have to do some digging to find these any cheaper.

Both are made in the USA.
I have a ton of Mayhew, Greenfield, Proto, Nicholson etc punches, chisels and files. All USA made.
If you aren't in a hurry, you can pickup all kinds of singles for less than a buck a piece. They all still work exactly as they should.
It is pretty amazing how fast a pin punch from China mushrooms out. It can ruin a piece in short order.
I've had good success with Starrett punches, but they aren't cheap.

I get it, you get offended about people posting about their experience with a product. Good for you I guess.

Every product has some anecdote about how it isn't the best of its class, yet somehow it's equally as productive to mention that a $1 punch might not be top of the line?
If you're doing production level work, that's one thing and this thread is a waste of your time. The other 99.9% of us have already tempered our expectations just by reading the title.
