You asked about a socket set as a present for dad
Kincrome 47 piece 1/4" and 3/8" drive metric socket set P28085, but not yet
Wait until 27 Nov 2026
Black Friday is on 27 November 2026. This set lists at $149, a bit over your budget. Total Tools has sold it for $119 on sale before. That still leaves time before Christmas. If you need the present sooner, buy it now.
Editorial timing, dated. We don't run price alerts.
Kincrome 47 piece 1/4" and 3/8" drive metric socket set P28085
- Its 1/4" and 3/8" drives cover most jobs on a house, a mower and a car.
- Total Tools lists this set with Kincrome's lifetime guarantee.
- The 47 pieces include sockets, an extension bar and screwdriver bits.
Also fine: Sidchrome 75 piece 1/4" and 3/8" drive metric and imperial socket set if your dad works on older gear with imperial bolts, or you would rather shop at Bunnings.
The unpaid alternative
Look in your dad's toolbox first. If he already has sockets, a good ratchet or a few missing sizes costs far less. A handwritten voucher for a day helping with his jobs costs nothing.
No commission on this line. It stays on every verdict.
How we decided
We compared socket sets from $100 to $150 sold at Australian tool stores. We weighed steel, warranty, drive sizes and how easy each set is to buy here. On 13 November 2026 we checked this set, its price and its lifetime guarantee at Total Tools and on Kincrome's Australian site. We checked the Sidchrome set and its price at Bunnings. We also confirmed that Black Friday falls on 27 November 2026.
In Australian shops: $119 to $149 when we checked. This is not Amazon's price. Prices move, so check before you buy.
