I don't think you can say that about other tools, maybe vintage Craftsman (which ironically started as a Snap-On knock-off.)

some of the older high-end Craftsman 'professional' and 'industrial' hand tools - especially the comb wrenches, screwdrivers, ratchets (?) etc are high quality and desirable (and will sell for good $)
the difference in a Craftsman professional screwdriver vs a standard Craftsman screwdriver (that most own) is night and day
( many of these tools are produced by SK, Armstrong, etc)
