Side note - I bought the super thin Duralast open wrenches and the are pretty decent and work well.
I would expect these to be the same.

Plus the SAE version.

All these cheap "impact" sockets are Cr-V, with a black oxide coating, which needs a thin coat of oil to protect against rust (vs. the phosphate coating on true Cr-Mo impacts).
Some have pointed out that Cr-V can be made to a lower hardness to make it more impact-appropriate, but the cynic in me says they're just using the cheapest process possible and making them look like impacts. Probably fine for home use, but they will be a bit tacky to the touch. IMO might as well just use a set of decent budget non-impacts (Harbor Freight Quinn), and warranty them if they split.
