KC only focuses upon German manufacturing companies. Do with Wiha quality declining, and their lessened German presence I'd assume that is why Wiha is out? But that's business in the modern world. Reputable companies are declining all over the place.
In the end, who knows if there are other reasons? But Wiha has seen a quality decline (especially in the US).

Never bought from KC, but I'll consider them for future purchases. They just need to have more sales.

Couple the above with Wiha discontinuing several very popular tools, tool lines, and "kits" with no explanation or prior warning.
KCTools absolutely lives by keeping a positive customer experience. Wiha failing to provide product to fulfill orders puts KCTools in a bad situation
Another issue is that the bits are a unique size. You can only use their replacements which are expensive and also hard to find.
And like many of these multi-bit screwdrivers, it doesnt work with screws that are inset very much. I ended up getting Picquic 48122 full-size multi-bit screwdriver with seven bits; the bits are long and easily work for inset screws. Of course the number & type of bits are limited but I really like this screwdriver., so much I got a second one. The make smaller versions and sets.

It's amazing how much better a brand like Bosch and Makita are when you can buy the versions made from those regions. Yet once they go to places like Mexico, US, or China, Taiwan, etc, the quality dips.
This is why I will not buy a lot of the Items we get here in the US, and will pay the extra to get imports from other nations.
For instance, I use VESSEL bits from Japan. They expanded to the US with "Vessel 🇺🇸" that are still "made in Japan" but the quality is extremely lower than their import quality.
It's a shame how far brands have fallen, and it happened long before Covid. Companies like Dewalt have lowered their quality, have massive discounts during sales, and still break earnings estimates every quarter. It just shows you how low their quality falls.
I got the email from KC Tool last week about not carrying them any more. Felo, Knipex, Hazet and Wera are by go-to brands anyhow.
Edit, I did pick up their 2.3" split head hammer (last one) with five faces
None of our tools are made in China. On our website, you can find the country of manufacture when you go to the item page and look under the "Specs" tab.
Thank you,
