A lot of tools are/were made by Danaher Inc. I made cases for the socket sets for them.
Torque and torque to yield in one pass is not the proper way to tighten head bolts by far. You will have head gasket failures left and right. Most torque specs call for a three step process. Step 1 is to evenly tighten all of the bolts so you have a neutral torque base to start from. Step 2 usually sets the uniform torque step for the torque to yield sequence. This typically involves a 3rd step calling for you to go through step 2 again at the same torque. This is because the gasket doesn't get fully compressed in the center bolts. You'll notice this when going back through them. You can usually get another ¼ turn or better out of the center bolts because gasket didn't crush as much on the first pass. Step 4 is the TTY pass and establishes final torque. I always go back with a torque wrench and verify final torque. If you pay attention, you can tell some bolts don't torque up properly. Even with a torque wrench, they'll never achieve required torque requirements. I've had to reuse old head bolts to meet torque requirements and have equal torque on all of the bolts.

Mac, Matco, Cornwell do not make any of there own tools. They are tool distributers. Snap-on does R&D and manufacturs most of there tools. Snap-on and matco are the only ones that make there own tool boxs

I found out daring Sema that hyper though is made by sharp

Another difference is that harbor freight and their Icon series warranties the entire tool as a lifetime warranty, and matco and cornwell don't. I'll stick with the Icon regardless of how often I need it calibrated for that reason alone.

Basically the the more perfect the individual part off the assembly line is determines what brand it goes into

keep in mind guys, these are the same people that swore up and down for decades that snap on was the only way to go.

Engineering specs are not necessarily the same across all those tools. Some are better than others and they are not all the same with different names
