Re: Imperial Allen key sizes?
Metric (red) Imperial (yellow) plus a few of the small Imperial sizes as they are the ones that wear out first. Bought from the Snap-On van man at least 15 years ago - reasonably expensive but they have lasted well. Maybe 'Bondhus' is a German name?

For small Bristol keys google for "SS-508 spline key set"

Re: Imperial Allen key sizes?
My Snap-On man, Chas, sells Allen keys and they are made by Bluepoint as are their drill bits.
I bought a pair of E707 side cutters from Chas, back in 1972. I still use them today for the odd job. Sadly they no longer stock them. Not as sharp now as my Lindstrom set. Just found them, my pair of 81's from Post Office days. Lurking in the bottom of my wooden tool chest.
