the amount of trash generated by food production, the medical industry, and the construction industry trump personal waste by so many orders of magnitude I no longer give a shit about the waste I generate, especially if it's in the pursuit of BIFL.
That "if" can apply to the high price brand as well. If you know you won't use the item a lot, going for off brand is a reasonable approach.
Good point, I Wasn't thinking about waste. I have several cheap tools from Harbor Freight that I've had for years. I've also had good name brand tools break down in the middle of their first job.
