I am looking for a "Decent" metric tap & die set. I don't need the best on the market but want one that I can use a tap or die more than once. Was wondering what some of the members have used and what they thought of the set they have. Thanks for any info.

Sears craftsman make a fairly nice one but it's a bit price'y. I think I paid $80 for mine.

I got a Irwin-Hanson 41 piece set. #26317. I forget the price but it wasnt a ton of money. I shopped around before I decided on this one. I also got a Snap-on 15 piece rethread kit straight from their web site. #RTD15M. I like this for when you repaint something or after you get a tought bolt out you can clean the threads out. Its a bottoming thread type.
