Cornwell tools what's your thoughts and opinions of them?

I had a dealer hitting the motorcycle shops in the late 90s/early 2000s. I really like their ratchets, allen bits and most especially their double jointed ratcheting spline drive combination wrenches.

Talking cornwell Tools. I had found this one in my dad's tool box.
It has to be a early wrench. it is in USS size not SAE or Metric that we use now
The 7/16 USS looks to be 13/16 SAE and the 9/16 USS end looks to be 1" SAE

For square head bolts?

When I went automotive tech school (decades ago), the students had a choice of Snap On, Proto, or Matco. Financial wise, I didn’t have an easy path, so I chose Matco. I still have (most of them) my Matco tools. In the field, it’s the traveling tool salesman that can make your tools a joy or a sorrow and the Matco reps that I associated with unfortunately didn’t go out of their way to help me too hard.
Interestingly, just this last weekend I was flipping through the channels and I saw that the NHRA drags were sponsored by Cornwell Tools. I don’t own any and there’s no reps in my area, as far as I know.
