Machine / Hand Tool Retailers in Hong Kong / Kowloon
I am travelling to Hong Kong on business at the end of the month and was thinking about picking up some metal working tools.
I have found a few threads dealing with buying woodworking tools in Kowloon, this one in particular, where people recommend the following Kowloon retailers:
Wang Tai Hardware Co. Ltd
G/F,486 Reclamation Street
Mong Kok, Kowloon
Wing Fung Metalware & Machine Tool Co.
421 Reclamation Street.
Mong Kok, Kowloon
However, I am interested in metalworking tools such as end mills, dividers, lathe tools etc. and I also enjoy just browsing and spending an afternoon looking for the odd bargain S/H, quality tool.
Does anyone know of shops in Kowloon that sell these types of tools?
I am well aware that the quality of some Chinese tools is pretty sus, but I also know from 1st hand experience (buying online from eBay, for example) that decent quality tools can be sourced out of Hong Kong / Kowloon.
Any recommendations would good.
A good tip that someone posted is to take pictures of the items you require so that people (non-English speakers) will know what your looking for.
