Well it shouldn't take too long to find your answer if you do a search.

most corded drills, and jig saw, germany-metabo
most other tools, one world technologies

but the ridgid line is not carbon copies of any other brand so you can't compare them to ryobi, craftmen. Some my argue but the numbers don't lie.

I find it hard to believe that HD employee's are stating the ridgid line is mad buy sears craftsmen. Craftmen doesn't make their tools.

Although Ryobi claims that their tools are sold "exclusively through The Home Depot," I find it interesting and informative that my local Sears also has them on the shelf. I won't claim that this means anything to the topic at hand, but there it is.....
