A) The 'grip' surface is polished. Slippery hands? No grip. Using this in an automotive environment? It really won't work with nitrile gloves.
B) The ratchet resistance is high. This compounds the grip problem. Ratchet doesn't work when a fastener is loose.
Ok the more I think about this the more this tool isn't all that great. Pretty much the only purpose it serves is to provide a handle when free-spinning sockets. It doesn't provide enough torque to break fasteners loose, and when they are loose the ratchet mechanism is too tight and won't activate.
Avoid, even at this price.
Gearwrench brand left a bad impression on me long ago when I bought metric & SAE sets (7 piece each set) of their flex-head ratcheting combination wrenches.
Each set had 3 out of the 7 wrenches that had a very heavy drag and very 'gritty' ratcheting mechanisms, far beyond acceptable levels.
I then bought identical sets in TEQ Pro brand (at Advance Auto, same as where I bought the Gearwrenches) and all 7 of each set operated smooth as glass.
I returned the Gearwrenches and kept the TEQ Pro's and never looked back.
IMO, Gearwrench is massively overrated.

Darn it, now I want both. They would have come in handy for me last weekend!

I got one 1/4" for my 3d printers and then a 1/4" and 3/8" for my gear bag. Sometimes you just need something to grip to hand turn a socket.
