I really can't say anything about the FarmHand tools, but I can tell you that the Sears Craftsman line are made by Chicago Pneumatic, and are decent quality tools. Now, personally, I prefer Ingersoll-Rand or Snap-On. Premium quality stuff there. Some of Sears stuff is rebadged IR also. If you want a good stout impact, get the composit housing Craftsman Pro impact. It's a rebadged IR 2131. I have an IR model, and so far have only found 1 nut that it couldn't get loose. That was an axle nut on a '48 8N. Had to break out the 2135ti for that (1000 ft/lbs torque-YEE-Ha).
