I have a socket wrench. It's a really good socket wrench, it would probably cost me close to $200 to replace.
I use it for nearly all of the bolts and lags that I need to loosen or tighten.
The bolts on the spindles for my tractor deck are massive, they rust up quickly, and my $200 socket wrench doesn't touch them. For those spindles, I have a special tool that can solve the kind of problems that a $200 socket wrench can't solve.
Despite my socket wrench not solving all problems, I'm still really glad I have it, because it is helpful most of the time, and I trust myself to be smart enough to know when I need a different tool.
