For those of you not familiar with TrueCraft, they were a Japanese premium tool manufacturer.  Daido  acquired the TrueCraft Tool Company and began using the "TrueCraft" brand for its hand tools. Daido's Truecraft Tool division offered high quality medium-priced tools from the early 1960s until about 2000, when the division was closed. Most of the production was done in Japan, but the company also did some manufacturing in the United States and in Palmera, Spain. They were the Japanese equivalent of Snap-On, Matco, MAC, Proto, SK, T&E, etc.  TrueCraft made great tools.  With the economics of manufacturing, and especially tool manufacturing in East Asia, TrueCraft had progressive difficulty finding a large enough market to support their brand, so their operations ceased.
Many still seek TrueCraft tools because of their high quality and reasonable prices.  Some consider them collectible.
