The Craftsman 81 piece mechanics socket set is on sale for $69, 47% off its regular price.

A good pair of diagonal cutters will make any wiring repair or DIY project go much more smoothly. These Irwin 8 inch cutting pliers are on sale for $12.35, 52% off their usual price. The size will serve you for most projects, and the grips are rubberized for better comfort.
Crescent locking adjustable wrench
An adjustable wrench is essential for any tool kit, but you need a good one—a common problem is that they can loosen up as you use them, rounding nuts by slipping over the corners. A Crescent locking adjustable wrench solves this problem by locking in the size of the jaws, making the tool less likely to slip. It’s on sale for $20.99, 51% off its usual price.
Klein Tools 5-in-1 screwdriver
Having the right screwdriver is a must for almost every job in the home. This Klein Tools 5-in-1 screwdriver is on sale for $9.98, 58% off its regular price. It comes with two flathead, two Philips head, and one nut driver attachment that can be swapped out depending on what you need. While it’s useful in the home, the set is also compact enough to serve as a good choice for an emergency kit in your car or camp gear.
Stanley utility blade
A utility knife can be used for all kinds of DIY projects, and having one with a sturdy handle can make it safer to use as well. This Stanley fixed blade utility knife is on sale for $18.27, 54% off its usual price. (You’ll need to be extra careful to keep this knife in its case when you’re not using it, as the blade doesn’t retract.)
Kerye flush cut pull saw
A pull saw is great for making flush cuts using pegs in woodworking, and for molding and trim projects. The small teeth of these saws cause minimal tearout, for a clean cut without too much sanding. The Kerye 6 inch pull saw is on sale for $10.99, 54% off its regular price. This saw has teeth on both sides—finer teeth on one side and slightly rougher teeth on the other.
Bora woodworking clamps
Having clamps at the ready when you’re gluing woodworking joints, holding parts together while you add fasteners, or keeping any object steady while you work on it is a must. This Bora parallel four clamp set is on sale for $119.99, 43% off the usual price. The set of four clamps comes with two 31 inch clamps and two 24 inch clamps. The jaws are lined with rubber to protect your material from getting scratched or dented.
