KMS tools is the best.
KMS tools is the go to tool store in Calgary.
Friendly and knowledgeable staff, great selection, and excellent prices.
I would so much rather shop here and keep my buying power in Canada, rather than buy from other online retailers.
I’m often quite thankful that I can drop in and pick up exactly what I need.

poor customer service in calgary
Went to KMS in calgary, my normal tool store. We walked in and my wife was told she could not come in store with her purse. Told my wife to forget it and we will go elsewhere. On the way out told the girl she has lost a regular customer and her only response was a shrug of the shoulders. Will never go there again and being a car guy also will never use their car parts section also.
