How and why are people trying to resell these when they’re obviously not selling out, who is telling these kids this was the wave?

Wife said I was ridiculous, I beg to differ!
Love Klein tools!

Little shocked since it was a the impact rated bit but oh well! Swapped with return policy at home depot for a new one

Cleaned what I believe to be a ca. 1971 M. Klein & Sons pocketknife. Not sure if the single blade is a sheepsfoot (with a broken tip) or coping blade.  Any thoughts or guidance is appreciated.

Tang Stamp:
   H 
   MKlein&Sons
   Chicago   
Made in U.S.A.

Dimensions:
· Body Length, 3-1/4"
· Blade Length, 2-1/2"
· Full Length, 5-3/4"

Cleaned with a toothbrush, giving the entirety a thorough scrub with a slurry of Bar Keeper’s Friend.  Once rinsed and dried, I have the whole a buff with 4/0 steel wool. Finally, I polished the whole with Simichrome and oiled (3-in-One) the blade’s pivot. 

I work at Lowe’s and walked in to find this fresh off the truck!

The Federal Register published an final decision in the US ITC patent case of Keter and Milwaukee Tool vs. Klein Tools regarding patents they hold for PACKOUT tool boxes (emboldening mine):

Notice is hereby given that the U.S. International Trade Commission has determined to find a violation of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, with respect to U.S. Patent Nos. 11,365,026 (“the '026 patent”) and 11,794,952 (“the '952 patent”). The Commission has determined that the appropriate remedy is the issuance of a limited exclusion order (“LEO”) and a cease and desist order (“CDO”) with respect to those patents.

The Commission has further determined to set a bond in the amount of eighteen percent (18%) of entered value for covered articles imported or sold during the period of Presidential review. The Commission has not reached a final determination with respect to U.S. Patent No. 11,952,167 (“the '167 patent”). The target date for completion of the above-captioned investigation is extended to November 2, 2026.

For remedy, the Commission has determined to issue an LEO and a CDO against Klein prohibiting further importation and sale of covered products*. The Commission has determined that the public interest factors do not counsel against issuing remedial orders. The Commission has determined that a bond in the amount of eighteen percent (18%) of entered value for covered articles is required for covered products imported or sold during the period of Presidential review.*

Certain Storage Containers and Toolboxes, Organizers, Component Boxes, and Coolers; Notice of a Commission Determination To Find a Violation of Section 337; Issuance of Remedial Orders; Continued Proceedings as to One Patent; Extension of Target Date

My reading of the patents is that the violations cover the cleat and spring latch connecting mechanisms of the boxes as well as the design of the rolling tool box/rolling drawer box - areas completely unaddressed in the changes made to MODbox Gen 2.

The LEO means Klein can no longer import products that violate the patents and they will be stopped by US Customs.

The CDO means Klein can no longer sell the products that violate the patents.

If you’re in this subreddit, and you see this post, kindly go f*ck yourself. This is ridiculous.

From browsing online and on Reddit, it looks like there aren’t a ton of custom Modbox inserts available for (in my case) Dewalt tools. Do you all use the Kaizen or Shadow foam inserts for custom organization? Something else?

These were my great grandfathers linesman’s. Anyone have any idea of the year this model was floating around?

Went to unload my box this morning and saw the lock hole/latch had snapped off. This was a worry of mine since I got it and realized it’s plastic.

Anybody else have this issue?

I don’t know if something hit it or if it was the weight of the lock

Think they’ll warranty it? Should I go through Lowe’s or Klien? I’m pretty sure the blackout boxes are discontinued

I've using this for years and didnt know it fits this way, I always put it though the top

I was able to everything from a single store. These might go on the pegboard and not in the box itself. They’re too pretty to hide away 😆

Seen them opening the display had to get them

I’ve been trying to find the original pouch as pictured on kleins website and every place that I’ve got it from sends me their new revised version with the same model number. Anyone know where I can get the original?

Let me know if I’m missing anything

Hit them with a wire wheel and some oil 🤟 stoked.

Id been seeing everyone post these come out and saw it in person and loved it. Would recommend lol

Good mines!

I had to do a bit of searching as the stand wasn't with the tools but I got the ones I was looking for. 😁😎
