Jeez! My aircraft [A&P] tech buddy sometimes jokes, He paid 3 Grand for a Snap-On Satin Tour Jacket, and they give him the tools free. Professionals need high end tools, and can afford professional prices.
That puts the high-priced EBay replacement part in perspective.
My stagehand buddy, who used to be a Sears Associate looked at my 44895 1/2'' Ratchet and disassembled it for me. Now I have to clean it up.
He's looking up some insider connections and will email me if he gets a contact.
