Yep. These SBD Craftsman sockets are basically identical to the Dewalt sockets, even down to the weird switch in how they do the detent as the socket sizes go up, and what size they change at. The...

Dewalt has always been owned by B&D. They created them back in the day to escape the negative context B&D had with professionals. Kept it under wraps for a while like when toyota introduced Lexus.

This is incorrect. DeWalt was founded in 1923 - was not created by B&D. It was sold off the first time in 1949 and then to B&D in 1960 when B&D was still making decent quality tools. It wasn't until...

Brickseek reported 3 of them at my store. But I could only find 1. It was kinda "hidden" by the other sizes. I wanted to get 2, but got one as a gift.
Good size/set for the price.
