Good socket set, weak wrench set, a lot of filler (80 pcs or so). I'd probably buy a separate wrench set to fill this out. Alternatively, the 192-pc set for $30 more (on sale ATM) or so has an even bigger socket selection, no wrenches, and less filler by maybe 25 pcs. Also more specialty adapters and extensions. You'd still have to buy a separate wrench set if you wanted them, but it might be worth it for a more complete socket set. The 192 is also probably about 10 pounds heavier and maybe three inches larger in both LxW.
192-pc: https://www.amazon.com/DEWALT-DWM...JE0J4&th=1 edit I have the 192, not the 205. And the 192 is no fun to move around, and takes up a whole lot of space laying down. But It's got everything socket-related that I've needed so far.
We will be ok old timer you hold on to your antique sockets keep them together with your Stilson pipe wrenches 🔧
Many modern things are still made with SAE, but even if they magically switched to metric, there would still be lots of old things that still need fixing.
If you don't have SAE tools, then you're probably not fixing your lawn mower, garage door, dishwasher, HVAC, etc.

I am an Industrial Mechanic for a Fortune 100 company. Believe me, SAE is alive and well! Many things produced in this country are still SAE. What about older equipment? I need complete sets in both SAE and Metric (In some pretty large sizes) to do my job. "Antique sockets" how about clueless in an Industrial setting? I have been turning wrenches for a long time and speak from real world experience. Pipe wrenches are also alive and well as many older installation are threaded pipe. Ever use a 48 or 60 inch pipe wrench?

I bought the 192 for my kid based on a recommendation from here. Yes it is very heavy, but he now has a complete set of ratchets, sockets and extensions. Spend money on a wrench set that's separate and buy a good one.

I only buy metric sets less clutter.
SAE is obsolete I like my sets neat and sleek.
