Just a heads up the o ring is intact around the faceplate the groove on the anvil itself is not for an o-ring you can see the seal for the faceplate on this timestamp. 10:07

With those comfort grips, I just worry about them getting covered in oil and grease and not coming clean.

Bought a couple capri mid length sockets for frequent impact jobs at work and qauilty seems to be there on sockets so far

CP. The internals are very similar to the Diehard 90t 3/8 flex head ratchsts from Advance Auto parts. Exact internals. I know you got a Carlyle tools ratchet in your collection. The handle is the same as the new Capri one. I wouldn't be suprised if the plastic on the bottom of the handle feels the same. Just to confirm with Capri they will be bringing back the goat head logo on the 90t ratchets down the road. In fact Capri is short for Capricorn. Which derives from the latin word Caprae. Modern Italian Capra.

Thanks for the info about the capri ratchet set and socket promo. Ordered mine after seeing your vid on Monday,can't wait to try them out. Love the vids keep up the great work

On the comfort grip debate, I’ll take it one further, I use the shittsburgh composite ratchets because I work on classic cars with pristine paint everywhere and they save so many scratches.

I try to like every video I watch from any creator even if I may not like or agree with 100% of the video they put out but what I do like is the fact that they took time out of their life to put it out and it’s not like most creators are making a ton of money from it

Good Evening Fellow Toolhaulics and Friends: CP, Thank you 😊 for your review of the comfort grip Capri 3/8 drive ratchet against the Icon model. Based on your recommendations 2 months ago I purchased the longer handle 3/8 drive non comfort grip Capri ratchet 😜 & so far for the money it's performing as designed. It doesn't hang-up in any way. It's not as smooth as my Nepros or Snap On but for what the intended uses are for I have no complaints 😉. I personally didn't care for the internal design of the Icon ratchet but that's OK I'm fussy about Chinese stuff. In your video today you were using the little power screw driver. I thought of you today as I was using mine & also being sure the battery was charged. Every one of your personal observations has been on target & with that every tool I've purchased has exhibited no defects or problems. Besides my Snap On dealer JDTCO has been my go to store for QUALITY TOOLS & THE SERVICE IS IMPECCABLE !!!! Great video Chad & as always my best to you and Henry. TMP from N.J. 👍 😢😅😊.

I’m really thinking I might order the 3 piece set with both socket sets for the house. Comes out to $180 for it all, not bad for quality tools. I’d like to take those ratchets to work and bring my GW ones home.

Got you. Cp I hit the like. Thank you for the tool recommendation

If you really like knurled handles check out the 70's-80's Easco ratchets, the pear head ( non QR,variant of what they made for Craftsman) and the RHFT. They were also done for KD NAPA and Allen. Man that's some large toothed Agressive knurling. You'll find the same large agressive knurling on the most last Allen RHFT ratchets that were made by Apex . Those New Britain made Blackhawk ratchets were great, the handles are great, and the kilness mechanism they had was great. Some had the dual pawl mechanism.

Most of these variants were rebranded by NAPA too, some by K-D but not as many. The 71-1102 has the largest round knurled handle of any 1/4 ratchet I'm aware of and the most aggressive knurling too, it was offered as an EASCO a NAPA and a K-D. I believe the that design in all drive sizes was offered by all 3.
