Even most of my hand tools came from HF originally. The key differences are manufacturing tolerances for the HF sockets are far less strict and the materials used are softer. Any sockets I've ever used from HF have rounded within a few uses, so I've upgraded to better sockets since. But I'm still using the Pittsburgh ratchets without issue - I particularly like the telescoping feature they offer.
